We were recently graceed with the presence of the living legend that is Dame Shirley Bassey. She came here to record vocals for her latest album.

Dame Shirley, who is Britain's most successful  female artist of all time was working with producer David Arnold who is the man been behind the last 5 Bond soundtracks.

We are looking forward to hearing the as yet untitled album which will feature "contemporary songs" and will be released in November.

Dame Shirley recently signed to Geffen Records.

British television executive Alan Yentob (BBC) interviewed the Dame during her stay.

Celebrity photographer, Danny Clifford visited while the Dame was here. He had the following to say about Grouse Lodge on his website-

"There is a really nice feel about this studio complex. Which is no wonder that so many bands and artists have chosen Grouse Lodge as their studio resort of choice. These artists include about 5 months residency by the late, Michael Jackson and his kids. I hear he had a truly wonderful time living there for that length of time"
