One of America's greatest pop singer/songwriters, Neil Sedaka's career has spanned over five decades and has spawned many memorable hits; as a solo artist and hits he penned for other artists as well. Recorded in England at Strawberry Studios in Stockport in 1972, Sedaka's "Solitaire" record features the four future members of the popular rock band 10cc. As well as the title track, which was successfully covered by Andy Williams and the Carpenters, the album features two UK Top 40 singles, including "Beautiful You" which also charted in America-Sedaka's first US hit in ten years.
