Please Leave Your Light On Vinyl is by Paul Kelly. Now available from Vinyl Records Manchester on sale in stock and in a brand new condition priced at only £20 + delivery. Please Leave Your Light On came about after Paul Grabowsky was asked to curate a series of concerts, in which he worked in duo settings with various singers. Having known Paul Kelly since 1995, Grabowsky asked Kelly to collaborate and from the outset the music clicked. Deciding to record what they performed at their concert, they spent three days in late 2019, at the Monash Uni Clayton Campus in The David Li Sound Gallery.The 12 songs they recorded were already part of Kellys extensive catalogue. Transcribed and adapted by Grabowsky for the pianovoice combination, the album has a classic fireside feel, influenced by the Frank SinatraNelson Riddle collaborations particularly In the Wee Small Hours and the Tony Bennett Bill Evans recordings particular favourites of Grabowsky. The performances are intimate, and shine a light on lyrical moments from the Kelly oeuvre.The most recent Kelly composition, True To You, opens the album with a little nod to the Gershwin Brothers and its the only song that hasnt appeared in another form on a previous record. They chose the other songs with a mind to their suitability for direct address, close, concentrated performance and room for silence to draw the listener in.In addition, they also performed Cole Porters Every Time We Say Goodbye, which Kelly delivers in an understated, sensitive way.So, light the fire, make a hearty onepot meal for the one you love, open a bottle of wine and get comfortable. Now drop the needle and turn up the stereo. Theres plenty of space here for all, Paul Kelly. Vinyl On Light Your Leave Hit the Read More Button, for more track details and delivery information.
