It was 1972 when the hit Alone Again (Naturally) sealed the fame for singer/songwriter Gilbert O’ Sullivan.
The song topped the USA charts for six weeks and garnered three Grammy nominations. Soon after, he got his first three British number one hits with Clair, Get Down and LP Back to Front. Gilbert was named “Songwriter of the Year” Ivor Novello award, embarked on an 18-city UK tour and a USA tour, performed sold-out concerts, clocked another UK Top 10 hit with Why Oh Why Oh Why and in 1974 won a third Ivor Novello award.
And today Gilbert’s twentieth studio album Driven finds him working with a new producer, the revered Andy Wright (Simple Minds, Simply Red, Eurythmics and Jeff Beck) recording with a full band at London’s famous RAK Studios. The direction of the album is an organic and raw affair, featuring a mix of ballads as well as upbeat songs, all written by an inimitable master craftsman. In a unique addition to this new album, Gilbert O’Sullivan has collaborated on duets with Mick Hucknall (Simply Red) and KT Tunstall.
Please welcome legendary singer, songwriter and musician Gilbert O’ Sullivan to Interviewing the Legends …
