Looks like the big release for 2015 is due in September called 'If I Can Dream' which features Elvis and other artists, including Michael Buble, remixed with The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. Should be a big seller providing it gets TV exposure.

The album is now available for pre-ordering in two formats:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/If-Can-Dream-Philharmonic-Orchestra/dp/tracks/B013F9YDXW/ref=dp_tracks_all_1#disc_1


There is also a double 'A' side vinyl single being released on 23rd October of ‘If I Can Dream’ and ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water’ although they look like the original versions.

This is obviously going to be a big release and TV promoted.

An ITV (UK) first look at the Joanna Lumley 'Elvis And Me' Documentary:

I think the viewing date is around four days following the launch of the album (at the 02 Exhibition) which should help with sales and chart position especially as the album gets a plug during the Documentary.

Nice with the Sweet Inspirations to the fore. However, I would have preferred a stronger ending.
