Search - Kirsty Maccoll :: Collection

2008 collection from the late British singer/songwriter best remembered by most as the female vocalist on the Pogues' hit 'Fairytale Of New York'. Praised by peers such as Jools Holland, Bono, Morrissey and Johnny Marr, Kirsty was a highly acclaimed songwriter and a prized singer with a very rare talent for finely tuning vocal harmonies - she would blend overdubs of her own vocals to create her unique "wall of sound" for artists such as The Smiths, The Rolling Stones, Simple Minds and Alison Moyet. This collection brings you the best from Kirsty's golden era at the dawn of the '90s, when she released a pair of poppy, literate and uplifting albums: Kite (1989) and Electric Landlady (1991). This was a period when Kirsty fulfilled her potential and blossomed into a major recording artist, and is Kirsty in her prime. Produced in association with the Kirsty MacColl Estate and official website Includes the hits: 'Free World', 'Days', 'Walking Down Madison' and more. EMI Gold.
