REVIEW:

This greatest hits collection by Simply Red chronicles the band's illustrious twenty five year old career. Fronted by the effervescent front man Mick Hucknall, the band are known for infusing soul, blues and pop resulting in smooth ballads. With the 1985 breakthrough hit 'Holding Back The Years', 'Stars' to the contemporary hits 'Fairground' and 'Your Eyes', the group have amassed an impressive catalogue which will please fans and newcomers alike.

Led by vocalist Mick Hucknall, neo-soul act Simply Red became one of the U.K.'s best-selling artists during the 1980s and '90s. As students of classic soul, Simply Red collaborated with legendary Motown songwriter Lamont Dozier and released a popular cover of Harold Melvin & the Bluenotes' Philly-soul classic "If You Don't Know Me By Now." While perhaps not the saviours of the form, Simply Red's approach is marked by both a reverence for soul music's past and a crisp sound that's very much their own.
