Sting's Winter Album

Sign in to disble this ad
Also a fine bassist; Sting has come out with a breathtaking new Winter album. It’s not you’re typical feel good, lovey dovey, “Good will toward men” album. It’s a very deep and heartfelt compilation. He teams up with a classical composer on a few of the songs that give a heart felt warm and rich tone to the album. Some of the songs have a darker and haunting feel, but it fits well. There are also influences from J.S. Bach. It’s definitely a refreshing piece from the normal “Sprinkle Holiday” mixes that normally saturate the market during this season. Fans will enjoy seeing this more thoughtful and contemplative side of Gordon. http://bit.ly/StingWint Others who have purchased this album, I’d love to hear your thoughts on it as well. I think it suits Sting well, do you?

I've been wanting to pick this up. One thing you can say about Sting is that he's not afraid to experiment.

Sting pulls another color, out of his crayon box.
The new C D has it's moments.
Sting can do what ever he wants. ( He is Sting)

There is also a PBS TV live concert show featuring these Sting tunes. I tried to watch some of it but was not in the mood for that type of music. The players were excellent but the music was too somber, ethereal, and church like for my tastes that evening. Not uptempo.
