Simply Red – Simplified 2CD+DVD

Simply Red – Simplified

Digitally remastered and expanded three disc (two CDs + NTSC/Region 0 DVD) edition of the British band's 2005 album. SIMPLIFIED sees Mick revisit high points from his hit-laden songbook. However, Hucknall invests these new recordings with frequently radically different arrangements, shining new light on such classics as 'Fairground', a majestic, heavily Latinate re-imagining of 'Something Got Me Started', and a cinematic, sweepingly orchestrated version of the Leon Russell authored ballad, 'A Song for You', which features one of Hucknall's definitive, soul-soaked vocal performances. The original 12-track album is enhanced and augmented with a disc of remixes, six tracks recorded live in Cuba, as well as the bonus DVD with interview footage, BBC TV performances and promo videos.
