Sir Michael releasing 'Cained' album

Sir Michael Caine is to release a compilation album of chill out tracks.

The Get Carter star is a big fan of laid-back music and has agreed to put together a collection for release in September.

It will be called Cained and include songs from 'No Ordinary Morning' by Chicane to offerings from Nina Simone and Felix Da Housecat.

The Daily Mail says Caine decided on the project while dining with Sir Elton John at the singer's mansion in Nice. He apparently realised he knew all the details of songs that came on the stereo.

"I've loved this type of music for years, and have literally hundreds of CDs," he explained. "I've been buying them for about 15 years, and really know my way around.

"About ten years ago I started making my own compilations. I've always been interested in music, and over the years have made literally thousands of tapes. And with chill-out I suppose I finally found my forte."
