A great selection from Brian’s repertoire, 33 brand new versions of his songs.
Having regained ownership of his back catalogue, Brian set about re-recording many of his most popular songs. Quite a number of songs on ‘The Essential Collection’ are taken from his four time platinum album ‘A Better Man’. It’s hard to believe, listening to the songs, that they originally were released in 1996, they sound so fresh as ever.
Recovery has been a strong theme throughout recent years and this triple vinyl set includes the “Pandemic” mix of that track.
