Ginette Reno - Love Songs (2014) [Hi-Res]

The album „Love Songs“ contains a selection from Ginette Reno’s English recordings made in the UK and the USA between the years 1969 to 1975, which will take your breath away. 'When I was a youngster,” says Céline Dion, “Ginette Reno was my idol; my inspiration…'She is one of the world's greatest singers”

But no words can better describe Ginette Reno than those written by Pierre Beaulieu in Montreal’s premier daily newspaper La Presse on June 1, 1977: “What a Colossus of the stage, what a magnificent performer, what a voice, what soul, what warmth she radiates…Ginette Reno is music pure and simple, music with no nationality, no boundaries, ageless, beyond time. Ginette Reno is the soul of music, a succession of notes that she rethinks, reworks, to which she gives new life and finally delivers to us through her own view of things, her warmth, her voice and her incredible talent”

2xHD MASTERING PROCESS: Producer André Perry undertook the mission of finding and recovering most of these recordings – some from the 15 ips, ¼” original masters, others from virgin vinyl LPs, in order to compile this series of classic „Love Songs“. Special care and attention were taken to preserve the feeling and warmth of these analog recordings using the 2xHD technology. A touch of orchestrations by Robert Len was added on some of the songs, to give this project a more contemporary appeal.
