People know Paul Carrack primarily as a member of various bands; Ace (How Long), Squeeze (Tempted) and Mike & The Mechanics (The Living Years, Over My Shoulder, Silent Running etc.). Either that or they know his work as a 'hired gun' appearing on albums from artists as diverse as The Smiths to Elton John, Roxy Music to Simply Red. But for over 4 decades Paul Carrack has been carving out a highly successful solo career, the highlights of which are included in this 19 track compilation.* All the hits with the bands are there but his solo material is more than worthy of investigation. Love Will Keep Us Alive, Beautiful World, Satisfy My Soul and Anyday Now are fine examples of what he does best. 'Groovin' is a faithful cover version but of the songs I didn't previously know, Eyes Of Blue is a real beauty. The booklet is packed with detailled info on Paul's career and includes his personal recollections of the 19 songs.
*amazon have listed this album as a 20 track compilation, in fact it has 19 tracks as What A Wonderful World only appears once.

This is a lovely CD with all the greats on. Terrific sing along stuff and yes you'll know just about every word.
Go and see him in concert he's brilliant and even better live, a real romantic with fabulous lyrics and wonderful tunes. An absolute must have......ok I'm a bit of a fan but that doesn't make me a bad person!!!!!!!

When you say you're going to see Paul Carrack live most people say: who? Still they don't realise how familiar his voice is. This album opens with the Ace hit How Long followed by the Squeeze hit Tempted: two very iconic songs. Throughout the album Paul's songs are impressive and the covers: When you walk in the room - how good is that? And the harmonies are amazing; the rerecorded The Living Years - just fantastic; the Mike and the Mechanics songs - just so good. Paul's self penned Love Will Keep Us Alive that became such a hit for The Eagles is an amazing soul version here that I love just as much as the other version, and don't forget to listen to Eyes of Blue - what a fab song. Start to listen to this album and you will be hooked. Paul Carrack is an amazing talent who is a pleasure to listen to.
