Shhh! with guest vocals by Boy George Guest vocals by Boy George Nigel Kennedy's latest album (may 2010), ‘Shhh!’, released by EMI Classics on May 10, features a version of the late Nick Drake’s 1971 song ‘River Man’, with guest vocals by Boy George.

Collaborating on one of the album's outstanding and most surprising tracks is Boy George, an old mate and near neighbour of Kennedy's in North West London who shares his passion for the songs of the late Nick Drake. George's delicate vocal on River Man points to another new direction for Kennedy's music – a gentle chamber pop which brings out the understated lyrical tone in his violin playing. "There were a few singers whose voice I thought might work well on River Man but I just knew that George's voice would sound amazing, and his beautiful, very touching interpretation and style adds a completely different dimension to the song."
