Bernie Taupin – Sea Has No Mercy (Digipak CD)
Product Details
Bernie Taupin has spent five decades as one of rock's most celebrated lyricists, his words carried by Elton John across some of the best-known songs of the 20th century. Hearing those same storytelling instincts applied to his own voice, unmediated, is something fans have never had before. The Nashville setting suits him well, placing his imagery-driven writing in a tradition that prizes exactly what he does best.
Bernie Taupin -""The Sea Has No Mercy"" Bernie Taupin presents The Sea Has No Mercy, his first-ever entirely self-written album and most personal work to date. Across 10 reflective, atmospheric folk songs, Taupin distills 76 years of life experience into stories that are intimate, vivid and deeply revealing. Inspired by his acclaimed memoir Scattershot, the album was recorded in Nashville with producer Frank Liddell and features guest appearances from Brandi Carlile, Lee Ann Womack and Georgey Taupin. Warm, thoughtful and richly cinematic, The Sea Has No Mercy stands as a late-career masterpiece from one of music's greatest storytellers. Digipak CD includes 12-page booklet of lyrics.
