Tori's Strength...



Tori Amos will release her new album Gold Dust on October 1st.

The album is produced by Amos with arrangements by long-time collaborator John Philip Shenale. Inspired by and following in a similar vein as Amos's previous effort, the classical music album Night of Hunters (2011), Gold Dust features some of the artist's previously released alternative rock and baroque pop songs re-worked in an orchestral setting. The re-imagined material for Gold Dust, consisting of songs personally selected by the artist spanning her entire catalogue from Little Earthquakes (1992) through Midwinter Graces (2009), was recorded with the renowned Metropole Orchestra, conducted by Jules Buckley.

Tracklist:

1.            "Flavor" (from Abnormally Attracted to Sin; 2009)          4:08
2.            "Yes, Anastasia" (from Under the Pink; 1994)    4:17
3.            "Jackie's Strength" (from From the Choirgirl Hotel; 1998)            4:32
4.            "Cloud on My Tongue" (from Under the Pink; 1994)      4:23
5.            "Precious Things" (from Little Earthquakes; 1992)           4:44
6.            "Gold Dust" (from Scarlet's Walk; 2002)               5:45
7.            "Star of Wonder" (from Midwinter Graces; 2009)           3:46
8.            "Winter" (from Little Earthquakes; 1992)             5:45
9.            "Flying Dutchman" (from "China" single; 1992) 6:21
10.          "Programmable Soda" (from American Doll Posse; 2007)            1:27
11.          "Snow Cherries from France" (from Tales of a Librarian; 2003)  3:01
12.          "Marianne" (from Boys for Pele; 1996) 4:08
13.          "Silent All These Years" (from Little Earthquakes; 1992)               4:33
14.          "Girl Disappearing" (from American Doll Posse; 2007)   4:06

There will be a deluxe edition of the CD which includes a 32 page hardcover booklet and a DVD that features music videos of "Flavor", "Gold Dust" and behind the scenes footage.

I love "Flavor" and "Gold Dust" is one of my favorites. I'm sure this will be a great addition to her catalog.
