Almost exactly one year after the dancefloor-oriented 'System' comes this seventh album from one of Britain's most popular exports, on which he teams up with pop production colossus David Foster (Josh Groban, Michael Buble, Celine Dion) to pay homage to the classic soul singers who have inspired him. Here he tackles tunes made famous by the likes of Sam Cooke, Curtis Mayfield, James Brown and Al Green, reinterpreting them in the mellifluous tones that have made him world famous.
