Comments

Another lot of groovy music. Technically this should be "The Classic Chillout Album 3", but presumably the compilers don't like numbered sequels... but what will they call the next one? Although they bring back some regulars (I must have almost a complete Ty Unwin album worth by now...) most of the songs are from newcomers to the series. I was interested to hear that Emiliana Torrini's contribution was sung in much the same manner as her 'Gollum's Song' for the Two Towers soundtrack - I guess she wasn't just mimicking Bjork then!
