Description
Such was the omnipresence of Britain's biggest selling album in 1992 and 1993, that Stars sounds like a Greatest Hits in its own right. It's always been fashionable for critics to sneer at Simply Red's phenomenal success, but there's no denying the sumptuous clarity which pervades everything here, from the doting, devotional "For Your Babies" to the deliciously understated "Wonderland". Even clumsy forays into social commentary--"Model" and the Tory-baiting "Your Mirror"--are partially redeemed by a couple of cracking tunes. Lest we forget, Stars was Simply Red's last album as a fully functioning band. Hucknall may well have since written songs to equal "For Your Babies" and "Stars", but bereft of Fritz McIntyre's sunny keyboard sound and Heitor T.P.'s crisp, angular funk playing, he's never quite sounded so Simply Red. -- Peter Paphides Simply Red - Stars - CD Review: Great - Great album by a singer who was on top of his gamr Review: Great product - Great product

Having loved their debut album by the time they had got ...
I have a strange relationship with this album. Having loved their debut album by the time they had got to releasing "Stars" I was feeling strongly that they had sold out to the "middle-of-the-road" (middle-aged) stereotype and were just in it for the album sales and money. Clearly, the album had strong qualities but I just felt that they hadn't progressed in the way that many other bands who started in the same era had done (e.g. U2, TalkTalk, Simple Minds). Not fulfilled ŵhat I felt was their awesome potential. But, having just back-filled my new hi- fi set-up with albums I had originally owned as vinyl I must confess that this album now sits very comfortably on its own time-tested merits as a classic of its genre with great songs throughout presented in startlingly-good recording quality. Just does exactly what it ever alluded to on its "tin" and never presumed to be anything than the perfect proponent of this style of music that it undoubtedly is. Thousands will be enjoying this music long after I am dead and gone, so who am I to argue? If you can't beat 'em join 'em!........and I am very happy to do so ! Buy and enjoy.

When I was young it was difficult for me to hear Simply red!But now who I’m (very) older I’m saying to myself what I have missed all those years… But better late than never we’re saying here in Greece…
