Hugh Laurie's 2013 concert aboard the Queen Mary is planned for Blu-ray in two weeks.
In an early announcement to retailers, Eagle Rock Entertainment is prepping 'Hugh Laurie: Live on the Queen Mary' for a high-definition release on October 22.
On March 26th of this year a dream came true for Hugh Laurie when he took to the stage in the magnificent Art Deco surroundings of the famous liner Queen Mary, now moored permanently at Long Beach, California. The show combines tracks from both of his hugely successful blues albums, 'Let Them Talk' from 2011 (UK #2) and the recently released Didn't It Rain (UK #3), along with other musical gems. Hugh Laurie leads on vocals, piano and guitar and is supported by the Copper Bottom Blues Band, a fantastic group of musicians and singers. His engaging personality and skillful playing make for a perfect evening of sublime blues in a wonderfully intimate setting.
