Virgin Records (hey, another non-Virgin Virgin company) has confirmed it will release an album of songs performed by buskers on the London Underground.
Busking on the London's main transport network became legal last year when, in association with drinks brand Carling, a licensed busker system was set up and designated busking spots put in place.
The new album will feature cover version performed by some of those licensed buskers, and will feature tracks like 'Babylon', 'Stuck In The Middle With You', 'Perfect Day' and 'Waterloo Sunset'.
The album will coincide with a special edition of ITV's South Bank Show which will follow the stories of four buskers in their attempts to get noticed by an artist manager or record label while playing their music on the streets of London.
The album, 'Sounds From The Underground', is released on 6 Sep.
