Release Of Susan's Latest Double CD
"My Heroes"
Following the huge success of Susan's last release in year 2000, - " String of Diamonds " which sold in excess of 200,000 copies and still continues to sell, Susan has come up with yet another gem, which is set to follow in the wake of String of Diamonds - My Heroes, a release that well lives up to this collection's accompanying title, 40 Timeless Songs. Such evergreens as Jolene, Crazy, Crystal Chandeliers, Coal Miners Daughter, The Gambler, Wind Beneath My Wings, and Oh Lonesome Me will guarantee that this double CD gains immediate attention in the store racks and that Susan McCann has another massive sales winner on her hands!
" My Heroes " Susan explains, "is my tribute to all those great artists who inspired me to sing country music …. Johnny Cash, Dolly Parton, Waylon Jennings, Loretta Lynn, Kenny Rogers and Patsy Cline, to name just a few." Modestly she omits to say that she has appeared on stage and television with several of these artists. Susan continues: "I love country music because many of the songs are built on reality, have good story lines and listeners can identify with them. They also have strong medleys and, often, great for dancing, which is an essential ingredient at many of my gigs."
My Heroes, released by North London's Prism Leisure, combines 22 brand new recordings - produced by Clive Culbertson - along with other titles, selected from earlier recordings, which fit nicely into the new collection's theme. In addition, several songs have been mixed into medleys, the presentation that made String Of Diamonds such an outstanding success.
