Mick Hucknall discloses information about his private life, inspirations, the stories behind his biggest songs, fellow band-members, and so much more in the only official Simply Red biography Between the awards ceremonies, world tours, writing, and making hit records, Mick Hucknall has found the time to lead a colorful private life. He has attracted more than his fair share of attention from the world's tabloid press—but he is a famously private man, and up to now has revealed little about the history of the band and the part he has played in it. Here, in the only official Simply Red biography, he talks about all this and more—while also going in depth about his greatest influences and heroes. Embellished with photographs, many from Hucknall's personal collection, this revealing read offers fascinating insight into one of the biggest bands to emerge in the past three decades—as well as an illuminating portrait of the man who founded it.
