ONLY BY THE KNIGHT

Wolverhampton soul queen and celebrity Twitterer Beverley Knight returns on September 14th with sixth studio album , the presumptiously titled "100 % ". The albums lead single 'Beautiful Night " is released a week earlier on September 7th. The album meanwhile sees collaborationa nad contributions from the ubiquitous and ferociously brilliant Amanda Ghost , Jimmy Hogarth , legendary duo Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, and previous collaborator Guy Chambers who performed songwriting suites on 2004's "Affirmation ". The album also featuresa duet with soul legend , Chaka Khan.

The tracklisting is as follows

"In Your Shoes" (produced by DJ Munro & DC Joseph)[10][11](sampling Orange Juice)

"Bare" [15]
"Square Peg"
"Gold Chain"
"Money Back" (produced by DJ Munro & DC Joseph) [16]

"Too Much Heaven" (duet with Robin Gibb)[17]

Having heard free download Every Step and Beautiful Night , "100%" should cement Bev's place as the nations soul queen of choice. Beverley is currently on promotional duties , taking in a rousing gig at Camden Roundhouse over the weekend for the Itunes Festival.
