BRYAN ADAMS GOES BARE BONES !!

"Bare Bones" is the eleventh studio album from Canadian rocker Bryan Adams and was recorded during his acoustic 'Bare Bones Tour' in early 2010. The album features re-workings of songs from Adam's extensive back catalogue stripped back to just vocals and guitar, with the occasional backing by keyboardist Gary Breit. The album captures Adams at his most vulnerable and raw and breathes new life into some of his most popular songs.

Adams says he was inspired to re-record the tracks by his experience recording 'MTV's Unplugged' in the Nineties. So he began performing the re-worked songs during his live shows. 'As the tour rolled across the USA and Canada, many people were asking for a recording of the songs as they had just heard in the show. So in response to that, I decided to record a few shows to see if a recording was even interesting… I like the way the songs carry themselves warts and all, bare-boned, without the original arrangements of a full band or an orchestra. These recordings only have the voices and hand claps of the fans in the audience and the ambience of the room to lift them.'

Narrowing down the selection of songs was such a difficult task that Adams threw it open to his fans, who voted through Twitter and his official website. The Canadian-born singer-songwriter has sold more than 65 million albums worldwide, garnered 21 top ten hits, and earned nominations for three Academy Awards and five Golden Globes.
