Jose Feliciano, The Worlds Greatest-Living Guitarist, Shares The Soundtrax Of My Life — His First English Language Album of Original Material in Over a Decade

“After an outpouring of recognition for Jose Feliciano in 2006 - including an honor at the Kennedy Center, the most-played holiday song in the country, and a highly praised Spanish-language duets record — the legendary bi-cultural guitarist is thanking fans by fulfilling their request for a new English language album.

This October, Soundtrax Of My Life, Feliciano’s first album of original English-language songs in over a decade will be released by Hip-O/Universal. The six-time Grammy-winner looks at issues facing the world at large, and those that hit closer to home. Through songs like “She’s in my Blood,” “Queen of My Heart,” “While You Sleep,” “Just Dad,” and the first single, “Baker’s Thing” Feliciano examines light-hearted and fun-loving moments shared by families, and more deep-seeded, introspective appreciations of the ones we love. In keeping with long-standing beliefs in the pursuit of peaceful resolutions to world conflict, the album presents Jose’s reminder that in the post 9/11 world, “Killing’s Not the Answer”.

Last year’s Spanish-language Feliciano y Amigos and the upcoming Soundtrax of My Life, reminds us of Jose’s trailblazing role as a bi-cultural musician. Though many years since he became the first Latin artist to crossover to a mainstream audience (opening doors for today’s bi-lingual Latin stars), Feliciano is again demonstrating his ability to captivate music fans in both English and Spanish.

Deemed “the world’s greatest living guitarist” by music critics, and heralded by today’s top Latin artists like Daddy Yankee (who recently paid tribute to Jose as “one of my idols. He’s the past, the present, and the future”), Feliciano is that rare musician who can create engaging new music, and enthrall audiences in two languages — more than five-decades since first stepping upon the public stage.

Feliciano just returned from tour, performing to full houses throughout, including London, Milan, Dublin, Tel Aviv, and Madrid. Soundtrax of My Life will be in stores in October, 2007.
