Gilbert (real name Ray) has been making music since the early 1970s and has enjoyed some huge hits here and in the US with tracks like ‘Alone Again (Naturally)’, ‘Clair’ and ‘Get Down’. He is incredibly prolific and never stops writing, recording and touring. His new album ‘Songbook’ is out now and is a beautiful collection of newly recorded versions of his own catalogue.
