Radio One Established 1967
2007 two CD set released to coincide with Radio One's 40th Anniversary on the air. To celebrate this occasion, Radio One have asked 40 of today's biggest acts to cover 40 tracks from each year of its history. This album is the result. Starting with probably the UK's biggest indie act, Kaiser Chiefs, covering the first track ever to be played on Radio 1, The Move's 'Flowers In The Rain', running all the way through to the modern Jazz-Folk-Soul superstar Corrine Bailey-Rae's version of The Raconteurs' 2006 hit 'Steady As She Goes'. Taking its cue from last year's successful Live Lounge, this album compiles exclusively recorded tracks of classic songs re-imagined by today's biggest stars. Also features Amy Winehouse, Robbie Williams, The Feeling, KT Tunstall, The Raconteurs, Lily Allen, Razorlight, Mark Ronson, The Fray, Natasha Bedingfield and many more. UMTV.
