NATHALIE COLE COVERS STING

Natalie Cole will on September 26 release her 20th studio album “Leavin'” (Verve), her first disc in nearly four years to feature new material. The 12-track set contains covers of songs by Neil Young, Fiona Apple, Kate Bush and Sting, among others. Described as a blend of classic R&B, pop and rock, “Leavin'” will be preceded by a hip-hop-flavored remake of Aretha Franklin’s 1972 hit “Day Dreaming.”
