A classically trained pianist who brought that discipline to soul, folk, and gospel without ever losing the intimacy that made songs like \"Killing Me Softly\" feel confessional rather than performed, she was always best heard live. Nearly four decades of festival footage, finally seeing the light of day on wax, is the document her catalog has been missing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDouble 180gm vinyl LP pressing. Robert Flack: The Montreux Years presents live performances spanning nearly four decades, from her Montreux Jazz Festival debut in 1971 through to 2008. This new collection showcases her quiet intensity as a live performer, pairing her masterful piano work with her unmistakable vocal presence. It features standout versions of her best loved classics, alongside powerful interpretations of songs by other notable songwriters. All recordings in this collection are previously unreleased and mastered for superior sound quality. CD Digisleeve includes stunning new artwork, rare and unseen photography and special liner notes by her longtime manager and friend, Suzanne Koga.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003c!-- TRACKLIST_START --\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide A\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1. The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2. I'd Like To Be Baby To You\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3. More Than You'll Ever Know\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e4. Always\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide B\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1. Soft And Gentle Rain\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2. Sweet Georgia Brown\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3. Killing Me Softly With His Song\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide C\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1. Suzanne\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2. Mercy Mercy Me\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3. Somewhere\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide D\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1. To Love Somebody\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2. Feel Like Makin' Love\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3. Feelin' That Glow\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- TRACKLIST_END --\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4099964186178\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e BMG Rights Managemen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6.26.26\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e LP Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- discogs-import --\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"discogs-import\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDetails\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Montreux Years (964186171); Montreux Jazz Festival (964186171); BMG (964186171)  ·  \u003cstrong\u003eReleased:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2026  ·  \u003cstrong\u003eCountry:\u003c\/strong\u003e Europe\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA1 The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA2 I'd Like To Be Baby To You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA3 More Than You'll Ever Know\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA4 Always\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eB1 Soft And Gentle Rain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eB2 Sweet Georgia Brown\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eB3 Killing Me Softly With His Song\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eC1 Suzanne\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eC2 Mercy Mercy Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eC3 Somewhere\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eD1 To Love Somebody\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eD2 Feel Like Makin' Love\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eD3 Feelin' That Glow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCredits\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTerry Flannery – Acoustic Bass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTerry Plumeri – Acoustic Bass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlorence de la Fournière – Art Direction, Design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDonald Lease – Backing Vocals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGabrielle Goodman – Backing Vocals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSantita Jackson – Backing Vocals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTerry Antonio – Backing Vocals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWayne Davis (2) – Backing Vocals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJerry Barnes – Bass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNicholas Brancker – Bass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRicardo Jordan – Drums\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRick Marotta – Drums\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpider Webb (2) – Drums\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteve Ferrone – Drums\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePete Schwier – Edited By\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJerry Jemmott – Electric Bass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRichard Tee – Electric Piano\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdrian Mession-Carrard – Engineer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlain Dufaux – Engineer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDavid Richards – Engineer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEPFL - Lausanne, Switzerland – Engineer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNick Bonard – Executive-Producer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThierry Amsallem – Executive-Producer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFraser Kennedy (2) – Executive-Producer, Compiled By, Producer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuzanne Koga – Executive-Producer, Liner Notes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArturo Tappin – Flute\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEric Gale – Guitar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePhilip Hamilton (5) – Guitar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSherrod Barnes – Guitar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBarry Miles – Keyboards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShelton Becton – Keyboards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaureen Forde – Legal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRichard Tee – Organ\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRalph MacDonald – Percussion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeorges A.
