Philip Lawson, one of the King's Singers many fine vocal arranging talents, brings us 5 pop hits spanning from 4 decades of excellent music. David Gate's classic pop release, 'Diary,' is tenderly set here by Lawson, with fun background vocals and lots of opportunities for solos. The 1983 #1 hit, 'Africa,' makes a great a cappella feature in Lawson's arrangement, with great harmonies and vocal effects. It's a rock classic tour-de-force! Now available in a clever a cappella setting, i'Bohemian Rhapsody' is a perfect pop/jazz feature or as a tongue-in-cheek encore for concert groups. Another gem from David Gates, of Bread, the rich a cappella setting of 'Everything I Own' is sure to create a magical moment in performance. Great for both small and large groups. From the Disney movie Toy Story, 'I Will go Sailing No More' this tender ballad expresses the poignancy of childhood lost.
