Simply Red: Live At Montreux. This two-hour 18-song soul-drenched set -- recorded while touring for the multi-platinum
Home album -- was filmed in 2003. Street date is May 22.
Simply Red -- with international album sales upwards of 50 million -- boasts frontman vocalist Mick Hucknall, Ian Kirkham (saxophone); Kenji Suzuki (guitar); Steve Lewinson (bass); Pete Lewinson (drums); Dave Clayton (keyboards); Chris de Margary (flugelhorn, saxophone); John Johnson (trombone, percussion); Kevin Robinson (trumpet); Sarah Brown and Dee Johnson (backing vocals).
Simply Red Live At Montreux includes seven more tracks from their 2010 Montreux appearance as bonus features: "Out On The Range" "To Be With You" "Your Mirror" "Heaven" "For Your Babies" "Ain't That A Lot Of Love" (a scintillating cover of the 1966 Homer Banks rhythm'n'blues classic that Simply Red popularized again as the lead single from their 1999
Love And The Russian Winter album) and a passionate interpretation of "If You Don't Know Me By Now" (the 1972 Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes hit).
