Description
Now, for the first time ever, "London Warsaw New York”, the sophomore album from BASIA, has been digitally remastered and expanded.

The deluxe edition of "London Warsaw New York” is being released to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the album. It also follows the success of the deluxe edition of "Time And Tide”, Basia’s debut, which is also available on Cherry Pop.

Originally released in 1989, "London Warsaw New York” (US #20, UK #68) reached multi-platinum sales status in the US and sold very well in France, Germany, Japan, and Southeast Asia.

A total of three singles were lifted from the album including ‘Baby You’re Mine’, ‘Until You Come Back To Me (That’s What I’m Gonna Do)’ (a cover of the Stevie Wonder-penned, Aretha Franklin classic), and her biggest US hit, ‘Cruising For Bruising’ (US #29).

Basia defined the smooth jazz radio format in the US in the late 80s and early 90s. She became one of their signature artists and went on to sell over 6 million albums in the US.

This 2CD deluxe edition features 34 tracks including the original 10-song album alongside 24 bonus tracks, 13 of which are previously unreleased.

The bonus material on this collection features all of the single versions, b-sides, remixes, and alternate versions that were released during the promotion of the original album. Additionally, an instrumental version of "London Warsaw New York” is featured as part of this deluxe edition. Nearly all of the instrumental mixes have remained unreleased until now. Also, four previously unreleased demos, unearthed from Basia’s archives, round out this spectacular, highly anticipated collection.

The 16-page CD booklet contains comprehensive liner notes, track annotations from Basia and Danny White (both of whom were members of pop combo, Matt Bianco), written contributions from PWL mixmaster Phil Harding who mixed the album, photos, illustrated discography, lyrics and complete credits.
