“Cannot Buy My Soul: The Songs of Kev Carmody”
Since the release of his first album, Pillars Of Society, described in Australian Rolling Stone, as “the best album ever released by an Aboriginal musician and arguably the best protest album ever made in Australia”, Carmody has established himself as one of the most respected singer-songwriters in the country.
That respect is clearly demonstrated in the new tribute album Cannot Buy My Soul”. Conceived and organised by Paul Kelly, the album sees a selection of Australia 's finest artists – black and white, male and female, young and old – coming together to interpret Carmody's powerful songs.
Carmody has been trying to unite people for over twenty years and Cannot Buy My Soul does just that, demonstrating the profound effect Carmody has had on generations of singers and songwriters.
