Iconic Irish band The Corrs have announced that Best of The Corrs will be made available on vinyl for the first time, with a special limited edition reissue, featuring three newly recorded Fleetwood Mac cover tracks.
Set for release on December 1st, the record will be reissued in a limited edition 2LP gold vinyl format and expanded 2 CD collection.
Released in 2001, Best Of The Corrs is an impressive 21-track double platinum hits collection, compiling tunes from the band's first three records; with tracks such as Breathless, Runaway, What Can I Do, Radio and Dreams — amongst many more.
Originally from Dundalk, The Corrs — Andrea, Sharon, Caroline and Jim — started their career gigging in in local pubs around Ireland, releasing their debut album Forgiven, Not Forgotten in 1990.
Since then, the band has seen sustained international renown, releasing seven records throughout their lengthy career, including their platinum selling 1997 sophomore effort, Talk on Corners. Captivating audiences with their distinct fusion of pop rock and traditional Irish folk music, The Corrs will embark on a 12-date tour of Asia, Australia and New Zealand later this year.

The newly reissued collection will feature three newly recorded tracks from the four-piece, in tribute to Fleetwood Mac’s Christine McVie, following her tragic passing in 2022. Cover versions of Everywhere and Songbird are set for release on November 30th — the first anniversary of Christine’s death, with a two-track 7” single available in very limited D2C on October 27th. The band recently shared their rendition of Little Lies ahead of the upcoming vinyl reissue.
The Corrs have also been announced as artist ambassadors for this year’s National Album Day on October 14th — celebrating the art of their debut record Forgiven, Not Forgotten.
Regarding their new role as ambassadors, the band said: "We're delighted to be ambassadors for this year's National Album Day. Forgiven, Not Forgotten was our debut album originally released 28 years ago back in 1995. Its release came at such a special moment in time for us and it's been a real pleasure revisiting the memories.”
The limited edition reissue of Best of The Corrs is set for release on December 1st — on 2 LP vinyl format and an expanded 2 CD collection.
