‘Careless Love’, first released in 2004, is a rich collection of cover versions with tunes from Bob Dylan to James P Johnson, and included Peyroux’s milestone rendition of Leonard Cohen’s ‘Dance Me to the End of Love’. For the sole original on the album, producer Klein and Jesse Harris co-wrote Madeleine’s signature tune and many fans’ favourite, ‘Don’t Wait Too Long’. With sales of half a million copies, the album shifted Peyroux from the exclusive Jazz realm into the mainstream arena, and it remains her most popular release. This deluxe edition includes a full previously-unreleased 2005 live set, recorded by Basque Public Radio for the Festival de Jazz de Vitoria-Gasteiz in Spain. Madeleine performs the repertoire from ‘Careless Love’, plus additional bonus songs.
