    Simply Red, A New Flame, 1989 on Elektra.

    Simply Red, A New Flame, 1989 on Elektra. Their third LP, with “If You Don’t Know Me By Now” (originally recorded by Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes in 1982) which I think totally stands up today.

  • Simply Red, Men and Women, 1987 on Elektra.

    Simply Red, Men and Women, 1987 on Elektra.

    Simply Red, Men and Women, 1987 on Elektra. Follow up to Picture Book, with “Ev’ry Time We Say Goodbye,” “I Won’t Feel Bad,” and “The Right Thing,.” Didn’t get as much airplay and promotion as their debut but really a solid second album.

  • Simply Red, Picture Book, 1985 on Elektra.

    Simply Red, Picture Book, 1985 on Elektra.

    Simply Red, Picture Book, 1985 on Elektra. This is such a solidly great debut album – Mick Hucknall, Toney Bowers, Chris Joyce, Tim Kellett, Sylvan Richardson, and Fritz McIntyre. If you only know them via “If You Don’t Know Me By Now” you should go back to this record.
