Classics (Jennifer Rush album)
Classics is the ninth studio album by American singer Jennifer Rush.[1] Having been classically trained as a singer years earlier, Rush went back to her roots in Classics and recorded a selection of her past hits with the Hungarian Philharmonic Orchestra.[2] These were vast reworkings of the songs, many of which had been originally uptempo pop tunes and were now slow and dramatic works, such as "Ring of Ice" and "I Come Undone". As well as these, four new songs were included on the collection, including the lead single, "The End of a Journey".[3] The album was released in several European countries, reaching number 34 on the German Albums Chart.[3] The re-recorded version of "Ring of Ice" was released a year later as a promo-only single to coincide with her Classics tour.[4] Rush undertook a tour with the Orchestra based on this album in 1999, which proved popular and appeared on several television shows, including on one occasion, in a duet with José Carreras.[2] Classics remained Rush's last album for more than a decade, as she spent the next few years away from the business apart from occasional recordings on various soundtrack albums.[3][5][6] Track listingAll tracks produced by Leslie Mándoki.
