Synopsis

Album Description
David Soul first gained attention in the as the mysterious "Covered Man" on several appearances on The Merv Griffin Show in 1967 in which he sang while wearing a ski mask and explained, "My name is David Soul, and I want to be known for my music". Superstar status came when he portrayed Detective Hutchinson on Starsky and Hutch. He has also made guest appearances on shows such as I Dream of Jeannie, McMillan and Wife, Cannon, Gunsmoke, Star Trek, and The Streets of San Francisco. His best known film appearance was opposite Clint Eastwood in Magnum Force (1973). These film and TV roles lead to a successful singing career for which David had huge chart hits with "Don't Give Up on Us " and "Silver Lady". In the 1990s, Soul moved to London, and forged a new career on the West End stage. In 2004, he appeared in Agatha Christie's Poirot - Death on the Nile as well as taking over playing the role of Jerry Springer in Jerry Springer - The Opera at the Cambridge Theatre in London which was televised by the BBC in 2005. He returned to the West End in 2006, playing Mack in a new production of Jerry Herman's musical Mack and Mabel at the Criterion Theatre alongside Janie Dee, directed by John Doyle.In August 2008 David Soul is scheduled to appear in the TV talent show-themed television series called Maestro on BBC2 running from 18th August to 20th September 2008..
 

CD Reviews

A Little Bit of Everything
Marianne K | Pennsylvania | 12/06/2008
(5 out of 5 stars)

"There certainly is quite a variety of genres of music on this CD. Of course, many of the songs bring back great memories if you are a fan of Mr. Soul's music. David Soul has such wonderful qualities in his singing voice such as a gentleness and passion that emanate forth in all of the songs. These are songs with lyrics that we all can relate to. The new spiced up Latin version of "Don't Give Up On Us Baby" gives a new sound to the time-tested song, however I admit that I prefer the original version.I recommend this CD and hope he does more!!"
Fabulous!!!!

"I've always been a David Soul admirer, and have always thought his voice was just incredible - from sweet to strong, soft to sexy - he has a talent that I believe has been underrated all these years.



This CD is wonderful as it brings you down memory lane but still looks to the future - he sings old hits and some newer songs that showcase his voice perfectly. Favorites of mine are Silver Lady, Jazzman, Fools for Each Other and Doggone. Of course, the sweetest song is "I Wish."



Great job David!!! I hope you record some more for us. Thank you! Adrianne"
Truly the best
