The Black Sorrows will release their 20th album ‘Faithful Satellite’ next week.
‘Faithful Satellite’ is the first Black Sorrows album of original material after 2014’s ‘Certified Blue’ with the two-disc ‘Endless Sleep’ covers albums slotted in between during 2015.
Joe Camilleri recorded ‘Faithful Satellite’ at Woodstock Studios with John McAll co-producing and Vika and Linda Bull on backing vocals, along with guests the Davidson Brothers and the Silo String Quartet featured on the album.
Joe Camilleri formed the first incarnation of The Black Sorrows in 1983. The first album ‘Sonala’ was released in June 1984.
The Black Sorrows then reached a commercial momentum with the ‘Hold On To Me’ album in 1988 which started a decade-long string of hits ‘Hold On To Me’, ‘The Chosen Ones’, ‘Chained To The Wheel’, ‘The Crack Up’, ‘Harley + Rose’, ‘Never Let Me Go’, ‘Ain’t Love The Strangest Thing’ and ‘Snake Skin Shoes.
