Trevor Nelson announces his new album in the award winning, chart-topping, platinum compilation series:
‘The Trevor Nelson Collection 3’
Released 12th January 2015
Following the massive success of his previous two ‘Collection’ compilation albums, legendary broadcaster, DJ, and musical pioneer Trevor Nelson has announced the release of the third offering in the series: ‘The Trevor Nelson Collection 3’. The album will be released by Sony Music on January 12th 2015.
The first ‘Collection’ held the No.1 position for 6 weeks (including both Valentine’s and Mother’s Day) in 2013, and the second edition held the No.1 spot for 3 weeks earlier this year. The album also won the prestigious Music Week 2014 Marketing Award, becoming the first compilation to ever do so. Furthermore, the two ‘Collection’ albums have collectively sold over half a million copies to date – an exceptionally impressive figure.
Not one to rest on his laurels, Trevor is back once again with another high quality 3CD collection of carefully and forensically compiled contemporary and retrospective R&B club hits. The new offering brings together iconic artists from the 70s through to the present day and is essential listening for any fan of R&B.
‘The Trevor Nelson Collection 3’ features tracks from a number of undisputed legends including Marvin Gaye, Aretha Franklin, Chic, Change (featuring the sublime, timeless vocals of Luther Vandross), Earth Wind & Fire and Michael Jackson. Contemporary classics from Beyonce, John Legend, Justin Timberlake, R.Kelly, Lauryn Hill and Usher then represent some of the finest soulful work of their illustrious careers. Also appearing are world renowned acid jazz/funk group Jamiroquai, reggae stars Dawn Penn and Kevin Lyttle, and hip–hop pioneers OutKast. In addition, the third collection features a number of modern smash hits including Grammy Award-winning artist Frank Ocean’s ‘Thinkin Bout You’, hard hitting 2014 dancefloor anthem ‘Loyal’ from Chris Brown and the retro groove-filled Daft Punk collaboration ‘Gust Of Wind’ by chart topping superstar Pharrell Williams.
The album is accompanied by a striking TV commercial, filmed by none other than the camera crew behind box office smashes The Lord Of The Rings, Gravity and the Harry Potter series.
Trevor Nelson has been the UK’s voice of R&B and Soul for over two decades. Nelson, who was awarded an MBE in 2002, remains very much in the public focus, having been a Radio 1 DJ and a presenter of numerous music based television shows. Regular radio slots now include weekly shows on BBC Radio 2 and 1Xtra, with recent TV appearances coming from the BBC’s coverage of the London Olympics 2012 and The Apprentice ‘You’re Fired’. Further appearances have come from hosting ‘The Lick’ on MTV for 11 years, covering the Grammys and Player’s Club for the BBC and Soul Nation for Channel 4. Nelson also continues to DJ around the world and is in his 12th year of residency at Pacha in Ibiza.
