Cinema is the fourth solo album by Elaine Paige. The album was released in 1984 on Warner Music, peaking at #12 in the UK album charts. This album has been re-issued on CD. It was the second of Paige's recordings to be produced by Tony Visconti. To follow the theme of Stages, Paige chose tracks that had been previously recorded for soundtracks. Like Stages, the recording was primarily conducted at Visconti's Good Earth Studios, other than for "Sometimes" (Theme from Champions) which had been previously recorded at CTS Studios, London featuring the New World Philharmonia. ~Wikipedia~
Following her hugely successful collection of theatrical songs, Britain's best theatrical singer looked to the cinema to provide songs for the next album. Elaine's own acting career did not encompass films so she simply chose songs that she wanted to sing and she picked some good ones. Here you will find Elaine's excellent covers of Windmills of your mind (from Thomas Crown affair), Out here on my own (from Fame), The prisoner (from Eyes of Laura Mars), Sometimes (from Champions), Do you know where you are going to (from Mahogany), Up where we belong (from An officer and a gentleman), Unchained melody (from Unchained), Bright eyes (from Watership down), Alfie (from Alfie), Missing (from Missing), The way we were (from The way we were) and The rose (from The rose). Elaine is in great voice throughout so your favorites will likely depend on which songs you like best to begin with. In my case, these are Sometimes, Bright eyes, Windmills of your mind and The way we were but most of the others are not far behind. If you enjoy Elaine's music, you will surely love this album. ~Review by Peter Durward Harris~
