Multi-platinum recording-artist Bryan Adams has announced
the release of his new covers album, “Tracks Of My Years”, a diverse collection
of time honoured classics from the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s. The eleven-track album
will be released October 3rd through Polydor Records and features a wide range
of influential musical styles, from Chuck Berry's "Rock & Roll
Music", Ray Charles' "I Can't Stop Loving You" to The Beatles'
"Any Time At All". The album will also include a brand new track
entitled, “She Knows Me” co-written with Adams’ long-term writing partner Jim
Vallance. The Adams/Vallance partnership was responsible for many of Bryan’s
classic hits including “Heaven”, “Summer of ‘69” and “Run To You”. "Making
the selection of the songs for the album took a long time" noted Bryan.
"We recorded all kinds of songs until the songs sort of presented
themselves, or sounded different enough from the originals. We did about 3
months of recording, spread out over the course of 2 years. Radio was king when
I was a teenager," Adams reflected, "you'd hear McCartney's
"Admiral Halsey" straight into "Kiss and Say Goodbye" by
the Manhattans. Radio didn't discriminate back then".
