Australian pop princess Kylie Minogue celebrates her 25th
year in music with a 16-track stripped down and reworked CD of her best known
work. Ok ok, I hear you gasping for air when I said "stripped down
reworked", but yes, the lovely Kylie pulls it off! The result is The Abbey
Road Sessions, recorded at the famed London studio with the backing of her
touring band and a full orchestra. So, can Kylie slow it down and still serve
up fabulousness? Of course! The toned-down, orchestral feel lends itself so
well to a live show that there’s a sense while listening to The Abbey Road
Sessions that “seeing” the music could help breathe a bit more life into some
of the particularly slow parts. But not to worry, the re-working Kylie did are
awesome! Especially the slower sounding All The Lovers and Locomotion were my
favourites.
