Russell Hitchcock’s second solo album ‘Take Time’ will have a limited reissue through MelodicRock Classics.
‘Take Time’ was recorded in 1994 but remained unreleased until 2011. This reissue has been remastered by JK Northup.
Russell worked with bass player/producer Don Cromwell on the record. Cromwell wrote songs for ‘Air Supply’, the eighth album for Air Supply in 1985.
MRC CEO Andrew McNeice: “This is simply an exquisite release featuring some sublime songwriting. Russell and Don have created one of the finest soft-rock albums I’ve ever heard. While ballads dominate the landscape, the memorable hooks and vocals of these songs keep me coming back time and time again. Thrilled to have finally secured a release of this mix, having first heard it some 20 years ago, standing in the offices of MTM Music in Munich. This deserves to be heard by all. The lead track ‘Never Say Never’ is one of my favourite AOR anthems ever”.
Says Andrew, “This was recorded in the mid-90s and released independently in a cardboard sleeve in 2006 as a different middle of the road mix. This is the original AOR mix from 94, never before released plus one bonus track – an Air Supply demo from 84.”
