They presented the essence of Blue Eyed Soul to the world with more lustrous vocals and sophisticated soul/pop sound.Simply Red, which has continued its energetic activities mainly in the U.K. and Europe since then, has completed its latest album "Blue Eyed Soul," its second album since its revival and 12th album in total, after a four-year interval since its last album! The title of the album, which refers to the band's own sound style, is a testament to the quality of the new album. The title of the album is aptly titled, "Blue Eyed Soul", and it is a "great" Blue Eyed Soul album that brings out the best of Mick Hucknell's appeal. Produced at British Grove Studios in London with longtime collaborator Andy Wright as producer, the 10 tracks on this latest release range from funky soul tracks with an irresistible horn section, to emotionally charged ballads, to smooth and tender ballads. The latest release is simply "sensational," with a selection of funky soul tracks with irresistible horn sections, emotional ballads, and mid-tempo soul/pop tracks with smooth textures and great melodies. Mick Hucknell had this to say about the album. As you get older in your career, you tend to look back on your life and finish albums with a bit of a darker flavor, and that tends to happen to everyone at a certain age... but not to me! I wanted to make an album with more punch than ever. I wanted to make an album with more punch than ever so I could have a good time with everyone.
