 (THE SUNDAY TIMES MAGAZINE - 3RD SEPTEMBER1995)
Asking Mick Hucknall about his love life is easy.
He seems reluctant even to let on what music he has been listening to recently, although he finally admits to three tracks by Duke Ellington, recorded between 1927 and 1932, and the debut album of the Los Angeles gangsta rapper Snoop Doggy Dogg.
Perhaps the surest sign that he feels comfortable with himself is the way Hucknall does not try to claim, a la Phil Collins, that he’s just a regular Joe.

John Lennon is Hucknall's all-time hero and there's a cover of Dylan's 'Positively 4th Street' on the new Simply Red album, Home.
Even if you don't like Hucknall's songs (and many would dismiss his band, Simply Red, as furry-dice music), few would argue with the creamy power of his voice.
Hucknall maintains that Simply Red 'dropped' first, because he wanted ownership of his own recordings.
