George Michael – Older: Remastered (3-LP Vinyl & 5-CD)
Product Details
George Michael wrote *Older* in the aftermath of profound personal loss, including the death of his partner Anselmo Feleppa, and the album's emotional weight is inseparable from that grief. The sophisticated soul and jazz-inflected arrangements marked a deliberate departure from his pop past, drawing comparisons to classic singer-songwriter confessionals while remaining entirely his own. For fans who followed his artistic evolution from *Faith* forward, this expanded set offers the deepest available document of what many consider his most mature work.
“Older is my greatest moment,” George Michael
