Any remaining doubts about the release of Dame Shirley Bassey’s new studio album appear quelled following the reinstatement of her official site at dameshirleybassey.com with Sony Music holding page:
Hot on the heels of the rumour that recording had completed, a trailer video was created on Youtube by Thorneycroft37 set to music of Dr No, escalating anticipation and excitement:
Please contact us if you’ve any more news about this exciting project!
This video isn’t set to Goldfinger, it’s Dr No….and Thorneycroft37 is a fan and has no status in the industry.

Thanks Kristian! Duly corrected. We enjoy videos from those of all statuses in the industry. The title clearly states the trailer is unofficial. Your comments are appreciated.

Let’s hope the ‘official’ website doesnt go the way of the old ‘official’ site! The last one kept saying news coming soon. This went on for months and then disappeared!

I just hope this news about a new Album is not just a flash in the pan, rumours like this have been around before, and then faded out of sight for good. Please don’t tease ardent DSB fans – lets just have some real positive news about releases and not just promises that come to nothing.

I hope it is an album of songs that Shirley particularly wanted to record and perhaps has been collecting for a while and now has the right collection for a CD. what about `HERE`S TO LIFE`, `MUSIC` `YOU NEEDED ME ` `I`M STILL HERE` ,`EVERYBODY LOVES ME `All memorable moments in the concerts. Here are some songs I would like to have heard Shirley sing: `WHERE HAVE ALL THE FLOWERS GONE?`, `I DREAMED A DREAM` `WHEN I DREAM` `THE SOUTH SIDE OF CHICAGO` `STARS`, `THE FLOOD` `I NEED TO KNOW` & so many more.

Thank you for the reactions on my video. I was always sceptical concerning any tour rumours or other speculations but, Dennis, I am quite confident that I have not jumped the gun as Russell Gilbert doesn’t seem like someone spreading a hoax. Not to mention the official website activity.

Hi, My friend Joe Quijano (from Puerto Rico) sends his regards to Shirley. We have recently up-dated Joe’s website to include an old picture of him and Shirley (and Joe’s then wife, Grace). You can see it at:
