Soulicious

‘SOULICIOUS is a 15-song collection of mostly new and some classic soul songs, the majority of which are produced by legendary Motown songwriter Lamont Dozier (with some also produced by soul legends Nickolas Ashford and Valerie Simpson) who has, along with his son Beau Dozier, written a number of the album’s songs. The album features a number of duets between Cliff and some of the greatest voices ever in soul music, including Billy Paul, Brenda Holloway, Candi Staton, Dennis Edwards and The Temptations Review, Freda Payne, Percy Sledge, Roberta Flack and Valerie Simpson.

‘SOULICIOUS’ was recorded at Willie Mitchell’s Royal Studios, Ardent Studios, Memphis and Above Asia Studios in New York, in April of this year. Cliff has had a life-long passion for soul music and the chance to work with such esteemed artists was a dream come true and a new challenge in his seven-decade, hugely successful career: a chance to cement his position as one of the greatest, most distinctive British singers of all-time.
