Simply Red Farewell

Recorded at Sydneys Opera House in October 2010 during Simply Reds farewell tour of 20092010 the aptly named Farewell captures Mick Hucknall in fine nostalgic form There are no surprises either in song selection or in his bands impeccably smooth approach but comfort is the point of the whole affair its one last chance for fans to hear those songs again For anybody who isnt a fan or got off board somewhere around the time when Stars turned Simply Red into sensations everywhere but the US this will hardly be cause for reevaluation but Farewell does celebrate everything that made Mick Hucknall into an international superstar
