Sir Cliff Richard is an English singer, musician, actor, and philanthropist who holds both British and Barbadian citizenship. He has sold more than 250 million records worldwide, making him one of the best-selling music artists of all time. He has total sales of over 21.5 million singles in the United Kingdom and is the third-top-selling artist in UK Singles Chart history, behind the Beatles and Elvis Presley. Richard was originally marketed as a rebellious rock and roll singer in the style of Presley and Little Richard. With his backing group, the Shadows, he dominated the British popular music scene in the pre-Beatles period of the late 1950s to early 1960s. His 1958 hit single "Move It" is often described as Britain's first authentic rock and roll song; John Lennon once said that "before Cliff and the Shadows, there had been nothing worth listening to in British music".

Sir Cliff Richard celebrates his 80th Birthday with the release of ‘Music… The Air That I Breathe’. The new album shows Sir Cliff’s amazing versatility with two newly written songs, ‘Falling For You’ and ‘PS Please’ as well as a selection of new interpretations of songs originally by Sir Cliff’s favour-ite artists including The Beatles’ ‘Here Comes The Sun’ and The Bee Gees’ ‘Too Much Heaven’. Additionally, there are five duets with Bonnie Tyler, The Bellamy Brothers, Sheila Walsh, The Piano Guys and Albert Hammond on the track that inspired the album title The Air That I Breathe.

This two-for-one pairing of two albums reminds listeners that Cliff Richard could still kick out the jams even into his forties (imagine, a rocker turning 40 – how revolutionary that seemed at the time!). Rock 'n' Roll Silver and The Rock Connection were originally recorded and released during 1983-1984, but never made so much sense as when they were paired together here. Rock 'n' Roll Silver was initially issued as part of the larger Silver project, marking Richard's 25th year in rock & roll. Working with a stripped-down band, the set caught Richard returning to his roots to fire out impassioned versions of the songs that moved him when he first cut "Move It" – things like "Lucille," "Tutti Frutti," "Be-Bop-A-Lula," and "Teddy Bear." There were also surprisingly strong revivals of past Richard hits "It'll Be Me" and "Move It" itself, and the result was one of Richard's most enjoyable albums ever.

Stunning 2006 album of duets, old and new, that brings Sir Cliff together with artists as diverse as Elton John, Daniel O'Donnell, Olivia Newton John, Dionne Warwick, Barry Gibb, Anne Murray, Matt Monro and others. Also features a new track with Queen's Brian May and The Shadows' Brian Bennett. It is a part-compilation and part-studio album of duets. In the UK, the album reached #8 in the UK Albums Chart and was certified Gold. The album featured a-reworking of Move It, with Brian May of Queen on guitar as the first single as a double A-Side with 21st Century Christas. The second single Yesterday Once More a cover of a Karen Carpenter song was recorded with Daniel O'Donnell. The album also featured a posthumous track featuring vocals of Matt Monro.
