More Info:

2016 album from the veteran British vocalist. In an incredible career spanning over seven decades Petula Clark is a true international superstar and legend. You hear that spirit of hers, when Clark sings 'Miracle To Me', one of her own compositions, written in the French mountains, embellished later by her writing on her piano. You hear it on her cover of The Beatles' 'Blackbird', in which she gives the song a very different pair of wings. You even hear it on songs which flirt with other genres, like in the country swing of 'Endgame', and in the subtle dance music sensibilities of 'Sincerely'. There are other covers on the record too, all tackled in searching new ways. Clark was nervous about tackling Peggy Lee's 'Fever' - they met years ago, and even sang together - but here the song gains an interesting, and sly, rocky edge. Steve Winwood's 1980 hit 'While You See A Chance' also gains a choir, created quite by accident by the people working in the studio.
