Notes

Produced, recorded and mixed by Peter Walsh. Co-produced by Gilbert O'Sullivan.

From the 32-page colour booklet:

'The concept for the album is based on my love of two albums Peggy Lee made in 1960, Latin Ala Lee and Ole Ala Lee.

And while I regard Peggy, along with Ella Fitzgerald, as the greatest female interpreter of song, my love of Latin stretches right back to that period of Brazilian music gaining world-wide popularity with the emergence of artists from Astrud Gilberto to Sergio Mendes.

The fact I write, for no want of a better word, 'pop' songs, it's nice to compose them in a Latin style and record them with some of Spain's finest musicians.

As a homage to Peggy, we've recreated the cover of her Latin Ala Lee album as Latin Ala G.'

TopPopper 6th Mar 2016		Gilbert is a very accomplished songwriter. Few have suffered such a difficulty with image as him, but ignoring the old pudding basin haircuts etc, he was/is a genuine talent.



JPGR&B SUBS 6th Mar 2016		Review As a teenager in the 70s I bought several Gilbert O'Sullivan singles but never an album. The years have passed and I have never followed Gilbert's career, but my interest in him was awakened by the recent heavy rotation on Radio 2 of his [digital] single No Way. I've always liked songs with a Latin American / Spanish Guitar feel to them so I thought I would take a chance with the album. And what a surprise! All songs written by Gilbert O'Sullivan, and an album full of great melodies in a Latin style - one that I know I shall listen to over and over. 3 people found this review helpful. ✔︎ Helpful Review?
