Stars - Classic Albums

Simply Red, with their soulful pop songs, will go down in history as one of the UK's biggest and most successful pop bands of the late eighties and early nineties.

Formed in 1984, Mick Hucknall and co. released their debut platinum-selling album 'Picture Book' in 1985, making Simply Red one of that year's major success stories. Their following albums 'Men And Women' and 'A New Flame' respectively, continued this success but it was the arrival of the bands fourth album 'Stars' in 1991 that saw the band top the UK charts for nineteen weeks and become the biggest selling album on 1991 in the UK.

Mick Hucknall talks candidly about the writing and recording of the album and the goings on inside the band camp at the time. Also featured are exclusive interviews with the band members, the producer and more.
