Every song on this album are fantastic, quite possibly their best.

But iTunes, why oh why is Sad Old Red are live performance, instead of the original studio recording, before I buy, I want to see it as a studio recording, until then, I shall just stream it, please sort it 👍🏼

Saw them back in the day and again a couple of weeks ago in Edinburgh. What a voice.

An excellent album, not a bad track on it. Storybook set the standard just too high for SR to follow up

I hadn't listened to SR for years until I heard song on radio tonight... Realised I only had this on tape.... Absolutely fabulous ... Picture book my favourite . Classic Mick

I can only agree with earlier reviews which say this is Mick Hucknall and Simply Red at their very best. I was lucky enough to see them tour during the mid to late 80's on a number of occasions, prior to commercial pop taking over, and this collection of classics is what they were all about. When asked who my favourite band is, Simply Red is always the reply, but with a caveat - pre Stars, which for me was the start of the slide. Buy this album - fabulous memories for those of us who were there!

What a piece of music - great band, great songs and great singer. Unfortunately he chose for mainstream mediocrity when he could have had true greatness. Can't say much more about it apart from have a listen and play it loud in a smokey room!

This is such an under-rated album.. Forget the mainstream sentimentality of later albums like "Stars", this is Simply Red when they had really had something meaningful to make music about. Its a raw, soulful album, and - whatever you might think of MH himself - a reminder of what a rare and exceptional voice the man has.
