Overview

The album features recordings from Abbey Road Studios of some of Lynn's biggest chart hits, such as "We'll Meet Again" and "The White Cliffs of Dover" alongside other standards that originate from her A- and B-side singles and original studio albums released between 1962 and 1974. Five previously unreleased recordings from Lynn are included, such as a new version of her No. 1 UK hit "My Son, My Son". The album contains two bonus tracks (tracks 22 and 23), which are unreleased songs from recording sessions made at Chappell Road Studios. Lynn selected photographs and contributed a message for the release. Also featured is a personal tribute from Sir Tim Rice.[2]

Elaine Paige premiered the unreleased song "Where or When" on her BBC Radio 2 show Elaine Paige on Sunday on 5 March 2017.[3]
