RICK ASTLEY Free...Plus / Body & Soul...Plus (2010 issue UK 34-track 2-CD album set - After the huge worldwide success of his first two albums ['Whenever You Need Somebody' and 'Hold Me In Your Arms'] on which Rick had written and produced several tracks himself, he decided to break away from Stock, Aitken and Waterman altogether. 'Free' saw Rick enlist the help of Gary Stevenson and famed arrangers Anne Dudley [Art Of Noise, ABC, Frankie Goes To Hollywood], Jerry Hey [Michael Jackson, Earth Wind & Fire] and even Elton John, and featured the hit singles 'Cry For Help', 'Move Right Out' and 'Never Knew Love'. 1993's 'Body & Soul' was also recorded with the help of Gary Stevenson and spawned the hits 'The Ones You Love' & 'Hopelessly'. Compiled by PWL consultant Tom Parker, this 2 CD release presents all the rare extended 12" mixes and remixes and the non-album b-sides. Also included are 'Some Kinda Love' & 'Stop Breaking Your Heart' [both of which were exclusive to the Japanese editions of the albums]. Complete with a picture booklet containing full annotation by Tom Parker as well as the singles sleeves)
