Simply Red celebrate four decades of music with Recollections — 40 glorious, newly recorded versions of their classic songs. Produced with long-time collaborator Andy Wright, the collection delivers beautiful yet faithful takes on timeless favourites including “Money’s Too Tight To Mention”, “Holding Back The Years”, “Stars”, “Fairground” and many more.

Mick Hucknall explains: “As a way of celebrating 40 years of Simply Red, we thought it apt to release these takes. Andy Wright set about capturing the atmosphere and sonics of the originals and has done a magnificent job. This has enabled us to come full circle and celebrate our 40 years with you.”

The anniversary year has already been unforgettable, with Hucknall’s guest spot on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon alongside The Roots, a surprise Glastonbury appearance with Rod Stewart, and a sold-out UK & European tour. With over 60 million albums sold, five UK number-one albums, more than two billion streams, and a catalogue of hits spanning generations, Simply Red remain one of Britain’s most enduring and beloved bands.

This 4LP set is a true celebration of Simply Red — past, present, and forever.

Recollections is available in three physical formats: a 4LP vinyl edition and a 3CD set (both featuring all 40 tracks), as well as a shortened double-vinyl edition featuring 20 of the band’s most popular songs.
