Album Description
Experience the timeless brilliance of Sting's second solo studio album, "...Nothing Like The Sun," now available in a stunning 35th-anniversary expanded edition. Originally released in 1987, this iconic album has been reimagined for the digital age, featuring the original 12 tracks alongside 14 bonus tracks that include B-sides and remixes, offering a comprehensive journey through Sting's early solo career.
The album, produced by Sting himself alongside Hugh Padgham, Bryan Loren, and Neil Dorfsman, is a masterclass in songwriting and musical versatility. It seamlessly blends genres such as pop rock, soft rock, jazz, reggae, world, acoustic rock, dance-rock, and funk rock, showcasing Sting's unique ability to traverse musical landscapes with ease. The album's title, lovingly adopted from Shakespeare’s Sonnet No. 130, sets the stage for a collection of songs that are as poetic as they are powerful.
Highlights include the up-tempo lead single "We'll Be Together," featuring the inimitable Annie Lennox, and the heartfelt cover of Jimi Hendrix’s "Little Wing," performed with the legendary Hiram Bullock on guitar. The album also features a roster of A-list guitarists, including Andy Summers, Mark Knopfler, Eric Clapton, and Fareed Haque, adding layers of depth and texture to each track.
With a runtime of over two hours, this expanded edition is a treasure trove for both longtime fans and new listeners alike. The album's excellent sound quality and superb songwriting have garnered widespread praise, making it a standout addition to any music collection. Whether you're a fan of Sting's work with The Police or his solo endeavors, "...Nothing Like The Sun" is a testament to his enduring talent and artistic vision.
