"Seconds": new recording

Post by Alex.Rybeck »

Celia Berk, whose debut cd "You Can't Rush Spring" was released in 2014, has recorded a new version of "Seconds" (Burt Bacharach/Neil Simon), which will appear on her new cd of New York songs, as yet untitled, to be released in the spring.
I did the arrangement and orchestration. I have loved this song for a long time, and hope this new recording will bring it to many new ears!

The official release of "Manhattan Serenade" (the new CD by Celia Berk, featuring "Seconds"), will be released April 1, 2016.
Available from Gramercy Nightingale Records on most music sites (Amazon, CDBaby, etc).
Celia and I will perform "live" every Sunday in April at The Metropolitan Room (NYC).
CDs will be available at the shows.

Thanks for the update, Alex. 'Seconds' is my favourite post-60s Bacharach song and to be honest nothing else comes remotely close.
