Description
• Lavish 5CD + 1DVD box set encompassing the latter half of 80s pop superstar Sheena Easton’s EMI tenure, all remastered from the original vault tapes - plus B-sides, rare 12” mixes and 46 previously-unreleased recordings from the era.
• Featuring a total of 83 tracks, this follow-up to ‘Modern Girl: The Complete EMI Recordings Vol I’ includes collaborations with the likes of Prince and Nile Rodgers on US smash hits including the Grammy-nominated ‘Strut’, purple funk juggernaut ‘Sugar Walls’ and ‘Do It For Love’.
• Includes the debut release of her ‘lost’ 1986 album ‘Shockwave’ overseen by R&B super- producers Narada Michael Walden, Nick Martinelli and Keith Diamond.
• Plus the first-ever comprehensive DVD collection of all of Sheena’s EMI promo videos - from ‘Modern Girl’ to the Prince-penned fantasia ‘Eternity’ - plus bonus 1984 interview and more.
• 48-page booklet includes stunning rare photography and illuminating new interviews with songwriters and producers including Narada Michael Walden, David Leonard, Greg Mathieson and Adele Bertei.
Having rocketed to overnight fame in the UK in the early ‘80s as pop’s first reality TV star thanks to BBC's ‘The Big Time’, Sheena soon established herself as a truly international sensation, relocating to America where she began collaborating with the likes of Prince, Nile Rodgers and Narada Michael Walden. Her genre-crossing approach resulted in her being the first artist in US history to score top 3 hits in each of Billboard’s key charts: Hot 100, R&B, Dance, Adult and Country.
As part of Cherry Red’s on-going reissue campaign of the vocalist’s EMI catalogue, this sumptuous 5CD + 1DVD box set collects Easton’s latter studio sets: starting with her platinum-plus new wave bestseller ‘A Private Heaven’ via the Nile Rodgers-produced R&B-dance flavoured ‘Do You', and concluding with the beautiful ballad-heavy ‘No Sound But A Heart’. It also marks the first release of her lost 1986 pop- dance sessions with Nick Martinelli, Shep Pettibone and more, plus a bonus disc of slamming 12” Mixes, several unreleased or appearing on CD for the first time
It also boasts the long awaited, first-ever DVD compilation of all her EMI promo videos - from early global smashes like ‘Morning Train (9 To 5)’ and her Bond theme ‘For Your Eyes Only’ to US chart-topper ‘Sugar Walls’ and her lavish final EMI video for Prince’s ‘Eternity’, as well as rare interview footage and bonus clips including her Spanish hit duet with Luis Miguel ‘Me Gustas Tal Como Eres’.
