Robert Reed’s latest offering is entitled ‘Sanctuary - Covered’ which is a collection of songs, most of which either haven’t been released previously on CD or have been developed just for this project.
Robert Reed:
“I love reimagining great compositions and the tracks on this collection have greatly influenced my musical output. They are songs that I heard through my childhood years, like ‘Chi Mai’, by the legendary composer Ennio Morricone. It’s one of the most haunting melodies he wrote and it became a hit single in the UK when I was a young teenager and I recall playing it to death. The three David Bedford tracks all bring back memories of my innocent youth and I vividly remember listening to the originals on a mono cassette player in bed.
‘Willow’s Song’, was always on my radar to record. I’m a massive classic horror fan with ‘The Wicker Man’, being one of my favourites films. The whole soundtrack is amazing. The small section from Mike Oldfield’s Tubular Bells that I recorded with Les Penning is one of the most emotional melodies that Mike ever wrote. ‘Telstar’ is the latest song I recorded, with this album in mind. It has such a great melody and Joe Meek’s production was way ahead of its time.
I hope you enjoy listening to them as much as I did recording them.”
