Eric Stewart:10CC – Anthology
28th July 2017Eric Stewart is most known for his vocals on the 10cc classic, I’m Not In Love
Although this track doesn’t appear on this compilation. What does appear is more important.Tracks such as the tongue in cheek, Doris The Florist, the honky-tonk of Night & Day and the incredible Caribbean track Do The Books
For the 1st time, a complete anthology collection of tracks compiled from Erics solo albums and from his time in 10cc. A few of these tracks are being made available on CD for the first time.
The 10cc tracks are incredible but the best part of this collection are his solo tracks, the best of which have been taken from all 4 of his albums.
Eric Stewart is one of those hidden gems. An amazing singer,songwriter and composer with unbelievable talent. There are so many styles on this collection it’s actually unfathomable, along with, what should be downright classics.
This anthology truly is a great collection of AOR.
