Mr. Big vocalist Eric Martin has released his new CD 'Timeless'. It containsВ his renditions of classic cover songs, made famous by female vocalists.

In early 2008, Eric was approached to record a project whereby he would cover various famous ballads sung by women. The resulting album, 'Mr. Vocalist' was released in November of 2008 and topped the charts for months. The success resulted in 'Mr. Vocalist 2'.

His new stateside release, via SONY International, is entitled 'Timeless': which is culled from the two Japanese-releases. It's also being released in two versions; the first, out now contains two Xmas songs, 'Happy Xmas' and the perennial favorite 'White Christmas.' Says Martin, "I sang them with my own interpretations; I inherited these songs as a new messenger."

His take on such chestnuts as 'Time After Time,' 'Superstar,' 'My Heart Will Go On,' and, 'I Will Always Love You', are decidedly terrific. He makes them his own. You'll instantly remember the voice! And, in the perfect storybook ending, Mr. Big reunited in 2009 and played in Sofia on October 1 at the special radio Tangra Mega Rock NightВ on the Arena Muzika 2009 festival.
