This new version of Olivia's lovely 2006 concept album Grace and Gratitude was released on Green Hill Music with some new tracks and variations on the theme of the original.
It includes duets with Mark Masri, Amy Sky and Marc Jordan.
There's a lovely little history of how Olivia came to do this album and sing some of the songs again on the inside cover.
Green Hill also managed to get the track names to appear in a CD-TEXT enabled player which is a nice touch that the majors often miss.
The CD was produced by Amy Sky. Olivia has worked in the past with Amy. Amy co-wrote the haunting Winter Angel and other songs for Olivia's 1988 Rumour CD. Later they worked together for the Stronger Than Before album, as well as the original version of Grace and Gratitude and of course the 2016 album Liv On.
This was also released in Japan in 2010 with two extra tracks - remixes of Physical and Magic.
The 2024 release Grace and Gratitude Deluxe Edition included the two new tracks from Grace and Gratitude Renewed Help Me To Heal
and the instrumental Todah
.
