Search - Mary Hopkin :: Now & Then

Mary Hopkin has one of those voices that perfectly combines clarity with a lilting and unclouded sweetness. It is pure and strong and has remained so ever since the days of her early classic 'Those Were The Days'. Recently, she has been exploring her archives, dusting off some long-forgotten recordings and sending them out to see the light of day. Original recordings have now been digitally remixed and remastered at Space Studios in Cardiff, where she bases her recording work and record label, Mary Hopkin Music. Now And Then comprises 14 gems recorded between 1970 and 1988 and follows the release of Valentine and Recollections, both also collections from the archives. Now And Then features a Mary original as well as songs from other legendary names including Bert Jansch, Tom Paxton, Jim Croce, John Kongos and Patti Hill. Some of the tracks have been brought bang up to date with the use of modern technology - notwithstanding being classics such as 'Happy Birthday'.
