2021 marked a full century since the first hmv store opened its doors at 363 Oxford Street in London, with July 24 seeing us celebrate our 100th birthday, in style with a brand new and exclusive range of limited edition vinyl just for you...
As part of our continuing birthday celebrations we're pleased to announce this year's additions to our 1921 Centenary Edition range, for which we have carefully curated a selection of the finest albums and soundtracks from the last 100 years and had them specially pressed onto some beautiful coloured vinyl - all of which will be available exclusively in hmv stores on Saturday June 18th and from store.hmv.com at 4pm the same day. As ever, our exclusives will be available on a first come, first served basis... and when they're gone, they're gone!
Due to Bobbie's surprise U.K. No 1 hit in 1969 with her cover of the Bacharach & David song 'I'll Never Fall In Love Again', Capitol decided to include the track on Bobbie's next album. The songs all build on a country soul theme culled from the finest contemporary sources: on Harry Nilsson's 'Rainmaker' Bobbie delivers a familiar lyrical narrative of rural mysticism with the same melodic flair you'd expect from a Gentry original. In Rudy Clark's gospel waltz, 'If You Gotta Make a Fool of Somebody' her tone expertly shifts from stroppy anger to rueful tenderness. And on 'He Made a Woman out of Me' and George Jackson and Rick Hall's 'Find 'em, Fool 'em, Forget 'em' Bobbie had never before sounded so downright sexy. Best of all is the self-penned 'Fancy', which is one of Bobbie's most accomplished narrative songs, a musical cross between country, blues and pop that could define modern Americana. It went on to become her most successful single since 'Ode to Billie Joe'.
