Hawaii's enthusiasm for Bitty Mclean, of UB40 fame, began several years ago with the release of the hits "Forever Be Mine, " and "Nothing Can Change This Love." Neos Productions put Bitty's hard to find music on the compilation "Island Love Shack," and back into the hands of his fans. The tremendous popularity of this compilation brought Bitty to the islands for a project with Hawai'i's own Justin. Their version of the Extreme classic, "More Than Words," kept Justin and Bitty on the top of Hawaii's music charts throughout the summer.
After experiencing six weeks of the aloha spirit while recording "The Dreaming Kind" with Justin, Bitty boarded his flight back to London with his creative juices flowing. The result, "Soul To Soul," is pure Bitty! With 5 originals and 5 of his favorite cover songs, "Soul To Soul" is reggae and R&B that reflects the many sides of the Bitty we've come to know and love. He's sweet ("You, Baby," "Can't Get You Out of My Mind" ), sassy ("For You I Won't Cry"), sultry ("Tell Me") sentimental ("Soul To Soul", "Not Enough" ) and serious ("Truths and Rights," "Bridge Over Troubled Water"). And it's all done with just the right touch of "Bitty soul."
Keep the love flowing - and the music pumping with Bitty Mclean's "Soul To Soul."
