Classic Blue by Justin Hayward - VitaMusik

ALBUM

Justin Hayward and an orchestra covering songs that he'd admired by other songwriters, this time on a grand scale that makes this record sound both sonically impressive and terribly pretentious. It's debatable whether the pop world needed Richard Harris's rendition of "MacArthur Park," but it definitely didn't need Hayward's even more cloying version 20-odd years later. ~ Bruce Eder
