Foreigner to Release Ballads Album
Foreigner will release the compilation album I Want To Know What Love Is: The Ballads on February 3, ahead of a UK tour with Europe and FM.
Mick Jones’s outfit have assembled 14 of their most popular tracks for the main CD. A bonus disc, available with the special edition digipak, features 12 acoustic numbers recorded last year and was produced by bassist Jeff Pilson.
Jones and former frontman Lou Gramm settled their longstanding differences last year – but the vocalist later confirmed there were no plans for a reunion.
The band, now fronted by Kelly Hansen, enjoyed a successful 2013 after Hollywood turned its attention on their catalogue and their music was featured in Anchorman 2, Magic Mike and Pitch Perfect, while tracks also appeared on the video game Grand Theft Auto V.
Jones observes: “Our music has touched a lot of people worldwide. Unwittingly, we’ve weaved into the fabric of people’s lives.”
