| In 2012, an all New Generation of artistes will guest on a fresh recording of one of the most iconic albums of all time.
Originally released in 1978, Jeff Wayne's Musical Version of The War of The Worlds remains an award-winning landmark masterpiece that has continually won new fans, spending over 330 weeks on the UK chart to date, reaching No. 1 in 11 countries and selling over 15 million copies.
Now, Jeff has embarked on a new interpretation with guest stars every bit as talented as their illustrious predecessors. He has once again brought HG Wells’ classic novel to life on a new double album both digitally and on vinyl, its original format.
Two of the modern era's most respected artists, Oscar-nominated actor Liam Neeson and celebrated singer/songwriter/producer and Take That’s main man Gary Barlow will play the two key roles of The Journalist and The Sung Thoughts of The Journalist.
Gary will be the new voice of the two international hit singles The Eve of The War and Forever Autumn. A life-long fan of the original album, he was most excited at the chance to appear on the new one. He says:
"I've been a huge fan of The War of The Worlds score since I was a kid, so to be asked to work with the legend that is Jeff Wayne was a real privilege."
Thirty-four years on, Liam Neeson inherits his role from Richard Burton, whose voice is an abiding memory for a generation haunted by his album narration. While a hard act to follow, he definitely makes the role his own.
Liam says:
"I knew and loved the book from when I was a teenager and it was an easy persuasion. And I bought the album in 1979 when I was working in Ireland. I still have that little cassette.”
Ricky, fresh from a world tour with the Kaiser Chiefs and Closing Ceremony triumph at the Olympic Games, takes over from David Essex’s classic rendition as The Artilleryman. It is a brand new challenge for the rock star who grew up listening to Jeff’s album. Ricky commented:
“Jeff Wayne’s The War of The Worlds is part of the musical landscape and I have always been a fan. It is daunting to do because people love it so much. I got the email from Jeff Wayne inviting me to be part of it and that is not something you can say ‘No’ to.”
Liam is already announced in the 3D holographic role of The Journalist for The New Generation Arena Tour, which hits the UK at the end of November 2012, alongside Ricky Wilson who will play The Artilleryman in his first ever stage role.
Bringing a fresh sound to the role of Parson Nathaniel is acclaimed new singer Maverick Sabre. Originally performed by Thin Lizzy’s Phil Lynott, Maverick performs with Joss Stone, the stunning choice to play Parson Nathaniel’s wife; their performances on The Spirit Of Man are truly mesmerising.
Hot new talent, Alex Clare, following his breakout hit Too Close, takes over as The Voice of Humanity, originally recorded by Chris Thompson.

| Gary Barlow is to sing on a revamped version of the hugely successful The War of the Worlds musical album.
The Take That star and X Factor judge is performing two of the hit production's most famous songs.
He is singing Forever Autumn and The Eve of the War, which includes the famous line: "The chances of anything coming from Mars are a million to one - but still they come."
They were originally sung by Moody Blues singer Justin Hayward.
Other new voices appearing on the recording include soul singer Joss Stone, singer and rapper Maverick Sabre, singer-songwriter Alex Clare and Kaiser Chiefs frontman Ricky Wilson, who is also appearing in the stage version.
The long-running musical, based on HG Wells' story about an alien invasion of Victorian England, was first recorded by composer Jeff Wayne in 1978 and spent more than 330 weeks in the charts.
It reached number one in 11 countries and sold more than 15 million copies.
Barlow said: "I've been a huge fan of The War of The Worlds score since I was a kid, so to be asked to work with the legend that is Jeff Wayne was a real privilege."

He will play the role of The Sung Thoughts of The Journalist.
Actor Liam Neeson is playing The Journalist - the narrator role originally taken by Richard Burton. A hologram of Burton's head had appeared in the show since 2006.
In a new element of the stage production, Neeson's 3D holographic character will appear to interact with the live performers on stage.
"I knew and loved the book from when I was a teenager and it was an easy persuasion," Neeson said. "And I bought the album in 1979 when I was working in Ireland. I still have that little cassette."
The album will be released in November, digitally and on double vinyl. The UK stage tour begins in December.
Gary Barlow will also appear with Andrew Lloyd Webber and The Military Wives Choir, conducted by Gareth Malone, at the Classic Brits on 2 October. They will perform their UK number one single Sing, with Barlow and Lord Lloyd-Webber taking centre stage on two grand pianos.

| ТЕКСТ ПЕСНИ
FOREVER AUTUMN
The summer sun is fading as the year grows old
And darker days are drawing near
The winter winds will be much colder
Now you're not here.
I watch the birds fly south across the autumn sky
And one by one they disappear
I wish that I was flying with them
Now you're not here.
Like the sun through the trees you came to love me
Like a leaf on a breeze you blew away
Through autumn's golden gown we used to kick our way
You always loved this time of year
Those fallen leaves lie undisturbed now
'cause you're not here
'cause you're not here
'cause you're not here
Like the sun through the trees you came to love me
Like a leaf on a breeze you blew away
A gentle rain falls softly on my weary eyes
As if to hide a lonely tear
My life will be Forever Autumn
'cause you're not here
'cause you're not here
'cause you're not here
