PAUL CARRACK: The Man with the Golden Voice and the Hits to Prove It
Want to know what happened to Paul Carrack?
Why he left Mike and the Mechanics?
Which song he wrote for the Eagles and what he's doing now?
Well, tune in and find out!
English singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, Paul Carrack has been a member of several bands including Ace, Squeeze, Mike + The Mechanics, and Roxy Music. He's been a session and touring musician for several others including Nick Lowe, the Frankie Miller Band, The Undertones, The Smiths, John Hiatt, The Pretenders and has enjoyed success as a solo artist as well.
Born in Sheffield, Paul began with semi-pro bands playing pubs and clubs locally. At age 17 he played in European discos and at army bases. He joined the band Warm Dust in 1970.
In 1972, Paul formed Ace who enjoyed success with 3 albums, a worldwide hit "How Long" (which Paul wrote), and a US tour with the group Yes. In 1977 he joined the Frankie Miller Band for 2 albums before joining Roxy Music in 1978. Paul toured the U.K. and Europe and played on their albums Manifesto & Flesh And Blood.
In 1985, Carrack joined Mike Rutherford's group Mike + The Mechanics, who enjoyed international fame with "Silent Running" on which Paul sang lead vocal, and they toured until 1986.
Mike & The Mechanics resumed in late 1988, recorded their second album, The Living Years, and had a world wide hit (and U.S. number 1) with the title track being sung by Carrack. When The Mechanics resumed other interests, Carrack began recording his fourth album Groove Approved released in late 1989.
During a 1994 tour of the UK, US and Japan, he aided Mike & The Mechanics in the recording of their 4th album Beggar On A Beach Of Gold (1995) which included two Carrack songs, one of which, "Over My Shoulder" achieved popularity in the UK and Europe.
In January 1996, Paul Carrack found European success with 'How Long' and 'Eyes of Blue' from Blue Views. By the end of 1996 he was opening for Sting's UK tour, and sang a duet with Sting.
Paul maintains an active solo career to the present day. He still sings some of his affiliated bands' best-known hits, including Ace's "How Long"; Squeeze's "Tempted"; and Mike + The Mechanics' "Silent Running" ,"The Living Years" and "Over My Shoulder".
He has also performed lead vocals on tracks from the Roger Waters albums Radio K.A.O.S. and The Wall - Live in Berlin, and achieved a major solo hit with "Don't Shed a Tear".
Paul's songs have been recorded by artists such as Linda Ronstadt, Eagles, Diana Ross, Tom Jones, Michael McDonald and Jools Holland, and he has recently served as a session and/or touring musician for Elton John, Eric Clapton, Ringo Starr, B.B. King, and Madness.

BLONDIE's Debbie Harry on Life, Love and Music
Ahhh Debbie .💓
Not bad.
I remember seeing the Hollies on Top of the Pops and thinking "Who is that singer?" The voice and the style wasn't like anyone else. The performance was so authoritative. Almost like "This is the way this is done." Blew me away. Thank you for the songs, the feelings, and the memories.
I love Badfinger !!!
Milk man

Lowell way ahead of his time
So glad y’all got together for our sake! ❤
Adorable. Drew AND of course, the Go-Go's.
Great interview. Stewart is a great storyteller. But gotta ask what's up with her forehead? Some sort of head surgery scar?
He rejected his mother, sister, children and grandchildren. Married a felon who uses "her" money for wickedness.
Great questions
Sung with so much emotion by a truly amazing artist.
Wonderful woman❤
Another good interview Sandy
Long −winded introduction.😂
Love the band, hate Drew B. Shut up!
Lovely interview ~~>
Can we induct Drew Barrymore into the HOF as well? That was probably the best band introduction ever!
He opened the Roger water show back in '88 at Oakland coliseum with the song tempted. The rest of the night I was trying to place that voice. That was the first time I heard of Paul Carrack..
Tempted is a statement song. How Long is an iconic song. Paul is bonafide!
Thanks for your words of wisdom Debbie ❤❤❤❤
Funny how she forgot to mention the RAMONES.🤨
Thank you so much, Ms Harry! I caught you in Minneapolis on Aug 7, 1982, with Elvis Costello and Duran Duran. So fun!! Thanks for bejeweling my life, you always were, and clearly continue to be, a truly classy woman. God bless you
Amazing woman!
Allan looking great as he aged.Nice to watch this interview!Thank you I appreciated 😊
Highest level cool.
She'll always be my Deb. I was 15, 1978. Blondie's my band. Sincerely 60 year old Dan
Your sub title around 5:07 says “working with Chris Cornell”, should that be Chris Stein ?
thanks for pointing out. I didnt generate these subtitles - I think youtube does it automatically
ICON ...................................................
Ricky has no right to do what he is doing,he waited for Tom King/ Sonny Geraci to die before he did this. He had a solid opportunity too do what he was doing in 1991 and he turned it down. Now that Tom King is gone he’s tarnishing the name for a few dollars. His association with the Outsiders was as a road drummer at 18. He never contributed or was responsible for anything pertaining to the Outsiders,he’s a douche and a scumbag Ricky is a scumbag and did nothing and can’t even mention Tom King as the leader and his idea behind the name of the band.
From what I read,they've broken up for good.This looks like a great,energetic way to call it a career.
Okay Drew,shuddup and introduce them.
Queen Debbie forever! Still smart as a whip and gorgeous.
No bs here, Debbie always speaks honestly and openly....a living legend......nuff said.
DEBORAH'HARRY I LOVE YOU!!!!!😂

LOVE DEBBIE SO GLADE TO HAVE BEEN OF THE AGE TO HAVE LIVED THROUGH HAYDAY AND NOT SURPRISED BLONDIE IS STILL A FORCE ,
