Re-imagining the fabled tale of the folklore favourite Robin Hood has been the latest creative challenge for Chris de Burgh. The compelling result breathes music and lyrical life into a centuries-old and much-loved classic. Regardless of its central theme, the music stands up on its own as a new collection of vintage Chris de Burgh material, with instant, sing-along crowd-pleasers. The tenth Chris de Burgh album to be produced by Chris Porter, ‘The Legend of Robin Hood’ is another aural extravaganza, played flawlessly by seasoned, talented musicians across a plethora of musical styles, from Medieval, ‘traditional’, nursery rhyme, folk and Celtic-infused to rock, classical and choral.
