Advantages: Great Easy Listening CD Disadvantages: Last Song personally is depressing!
After seeing this CD advertised on the TV last night and being somewhat a fan of Russell Watson I decided today that I would treat myself and so I bought it. I am very pleased with my purchase as this is a lovely easy listening CD.
The cover of the CD is white and has a picture of Russell standing to the right hand side and the title in white lettering on the arm section of his picture. The back cover of the CD has a picture again of Russell standing with a microphone to the left hand side and the track list in black to the right hand side.
The tracks on 'PeopleGetReady' are:-
1. Me and Mrs Jones - This track has a swing feel to it and is a very well know song which he does sing very well and has kept to the original version instead of trying to make it different and spoiling such a good song. The band is also very good in ...
Advantages: Some superb tracks with very thought-provoking lyrics Disadvantages: A couple of slightly 'iffy' tracks

Russell?s 8th studio album ? PeopleGetReady ? is the album I am now going to review and is a mixture of soul music, rock and easy listening.
Track 1 ? Me and Mrs Jones
?Mr and Mrs Jones? has a very soulful feeling from the very beginning and the backing track must get the initial credit for this. As the singing kicks in however it is very clear that Russell has all the ability necessary to continue this feeling throughout and proceeds to project the lyrics forward in a powerful ...
Advantages: All the best songs in one place Disadvantages: Not worthwhile for the aged-old fan
Being the impressionable 21-year old, I'm always keen to find new music to add to my collection or taste. But sometimes it helps to go back a few years as well.... A couple of years ago, if you'd have asked me to name a couple of Cure songs, I'd have said "what?" and the closest I'd be able to come is say "isn't their lead singer a bit 'eccentric' for an old man?"....
However, upon a visit to the iTunes store and typing in 'The Cure', I recognised the first 6 songs on offer. How is that so? Well, I thought maybe it would be because Robert Smith & co have been doing rather well off royalty money from adverts/theme tunes/backing music in recent year.....no, it's because they've produced music that has stood the test of time and is just as good now as it was then. It's music that still gets played in rock nightclubs, radio stations, TV ...
