We are very pleased to announce news of Joe’s ‘Silver Years’ album project which is now complete and ready for release on what would have been his 65th Birthday the 31st May 2020. Jamie, Joe’s husband, feels the time is now right to release Joe’s final recordings.

Andy Mudd, Joe’s Musical Director and his very dear friend, had been recording the album tracks with Joe at the time of Joe’s very sad passing last August 2019. Andy had set up his recording studio at Joe and Jamie’s home at their request to make it ideal for Joe to record and work on his project which was so dear to his heart.

Andy has produced and finalised all the recordings with Jamie and the full track listing is :-

Love's Been Good to Me
Making Memories
That’s My Desire
She Never Could Dance
The Gypsy
A Whiter Shade Of Pale
How Can You Mend A Broken Heart
Love Is All
The Curtain Falls
The Impossible Dream

The album will be available for pre order from 1st May 2020 at £14.95 inc postage with guaranteed delivery before 31st May 2020.
