Tribute To Bobby

With Tribute To Bobby, one of the U.K.'s most soulful and distinctive voices - Mick Hucknall - pays homage to one of the most legendary vocalists from the American South, Bobby 'Blue' Bland. The twelve-track disc is the solo debut album from the Simply Red frontman, and it features Hucknall's emotionally direct and worldly-wise interpretations of songs that were originally popularized by Memphis-based blues icon Bland. Mojo magazine gives it '3 stars out of 5 -- Loose-limbed and often monstrously funky, Tribute To Bobby finds Hucknall singing from the heart."
