Eric Martin is the vocalist of rock band MR. BIG, known for the worldwide hit “TO BE WITH YOU” which reached number one in the US charts. His smash hit series “MR. VOCALIST”, which features English covers of J-POP classics, will be released on November 27th (Wednesday), and the songs to be included in the album “MR. VOCALIST COMPLETE BEST” have been decided by fan request voting. The songs to be
included this time were selected from the albums released so far in the series. Requests were collected on Eric’s official website from September 24th to October 4th, and despite the short period of time, requests for various songs were received, so the album will be released in two formats, a limited edition and a regular edition.
The first production limited edition is a 2-CD set with a bonus track, “I’ll be there just for you,” a new Voice of Youth JAPAN charity song in which Eric participated, plus a Blu-ray with the now hard-to-find live video work “MR.VOCALIST~A Special Night In Tokyo~” and 4 music videos released so far. It’s a voluminous 3-CD set in total.
“PRIDE,” “HERO,” “Like the Flow of a River,” “Someday’s Merry Christmas,” “Forever Love,” and many other classic songs will show you a new world with Eric’s diverse vocals. He will surely show off his heroic figure on his Japan tour in December, his first in 15 years. Please enjoy the world of “MR. VOCALIST” once again.
