6 Music Classic Concert - Simply Red

Chris Hawkins introduces Simply Red recorded live at the Newcastle City Hall in 1989. The tracks include Come To My Aid, Holding Back The Years, and Money's Too Tight To Mention, a Valentine Brothers' cover which was the band's debut single and introduced us to the unmistakable vocals of Mick Hucknall. From this single onwards, Simply Red's chameleon-like changes in style, enabled Mick Hucknall to clock up hit after hit.
