Belinda Carlisle – Once Upon A Time In California

Limited vinyl picture disc LP pressing. 2025 release from the icon that is Belinda Carlisle. The music legend returns to her roots on 'Once Upon A Time In California'. Featuring ten new studio tracks, recorded in her native Los Angeles, it sees the singer take a deeply personal journey through the golden sounds of her youth, with a collection of immaculate cover versions. Steeped in the spirit of her Californian upbringing, the album is a heartfelt tribute to the vintage pop culture that shaped her musical identity. 'Once Upon A Time In California' opens with a stirring remake of the Bacharach & David gem written for Dionne Warwick, 'Anyone Who Had A Heart'. Belinda then pays her respects to such timeless artists as the Carpenters ('Superstar'), Gordon Lightfoot ('If You Could Read My Mind'), and Jim Croce ('Time In A Bottle'), and to songs for the ages including 'The Air That I Breathe' (Albert Hammond), 'Everybody's Talkin' (Harry Nilsson) and 'Reflections Of My Life' (Marmalade). The result is an entirely different kind of California dreamin' for a new generation.
