	Paul Carrack - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Paul Carrack (born April 22, 1951 in Sheffield, England) is a British keyboardist, singer and songwriter.
		Carrack was the keyboard player for Warm Dust, and occasionally played other instruments as well, but he was not the band's lead vocalist.
		In 2004, the band was officially re-named Mike and the Mechanics and Paul Carrack.

	TrouserPress.com :: Paul Carrack
		In one of rock's circuitous success stories, Paul Carrack was the lead-singing keyboardist in Ace, a pub-rock outfit before "pub-rock" became a rock press sub-genre — strictly background music for soaking up suds.
		Carrack and Lowe then formed Noise to Go, a Rockpilish arrangement in which the two alternated top billing.
		Carrack next found employment with Mike and the Mechanics (Mike Rutherford's extra-Genesis sideline), and wound up singing strangely anonymous-sounding lead on that group's big hit, "Silent Running." This exposure got Carrack a 1987 touring-band job with Roger Waters after Pink Floyd's split.

	BBC - h2g2 - Paul Carrack at Ronnie Scott’s — Interview/Informal Chat - Wednesday 11th November 1998
		Paul then followed this song up with another unexpected treat, an acoustic version of a song he performed with Squeeze (as he announced “This is a song I recorded with the lads who are playing across the road in a few days”) — this was Loving You Tonight.
		This was performed excellently by Paul, who was still alone on stage, before Paul had even performed the track a woman in the audience let out an excited squeal once she learned what track he was about to do.
		Paul came on, thanked the audience for being great and the people at Ronnie Scott’s for having him for tonight and the next 3 nights, and announced they would do one final song that everyone had to sing the chorus to, not too hard when the song is Oh Oh Oh My My My.

	Carrack, Paul: Satisfy my soul (Compass Records, 2000.01.01)
		Paul was first bitten by the music bug as a small child back in his native Sheffield, where he would bash away at a home-made drumkit up in his parents' attic, playing along with an old wind-up gramophone.
		Sung by Paul, the title-track of their second LP The Living Years was a huge worldwide hit, peaking at number one in America, and hoisting the band to megastar status.
		Paul Carrack was one of the great all-around side musicians of the '70s and '80s, singing and playing on tours and albums by the likes of Squeeze, Nick Lowe, the Pretenders and the Smiths.

		Paul Carrack then returned to the forefront to announce that he would be performing the first song he ever wrote and requested a little audience participation to help out with the tune.
		Paul Carrack and his band left the audience hungry for more, and not a soul left the arena until the lights came on in the off chance that the band might return for yet another encore.

		Paul then chatted casually with the audience as he switched to electric guitar, speaking of his four children and how he hoped that family wars wouldn’t break out over the fact that My Kind was written for only one of them, when his now teenage daughter was a baby.
		Paul stood in the centre of the stage holding a mike, admiring the magnificent talent of his friend but also looking a bit surprised, though happily so, that the piano intro was continuing for quite so long.
		Paul then said he had decided to delve into some self-indulgence—it was his party, after all—and he and Argent performed a gorgeously smooth and soulful version of Georgia On My Mind that seemed to leave the Hall breathless and would make Van Morrison, who also enjoys performing that song live, fairly jealous.

	Get Ready to ROCK! Review of CD album by Mike and The Mechanics and Paul Carrack called Rewired
		Sadly original co-vocalist Paul Young is no longer with us, so Paul Carrack is left to carry the torch in the vocal department, and significantly now has joint billing.
		Carrack is one of our best vocalists but his own solo career has been low key.
		In between, the album is inoffensive but Carrack and co hardly break sweat, save perhaps for the opener 'One Left Standing' which has the requisite urgency that is sadly lacking elsewhere.

	Mike and The Mechanics - Biography 1985 - 2005
		Paul Carrack made his mark on the music scene in 1974, with ACE and the hit single, "How Long", (taken from their "Five A-Side" album).
		Paul Carrack re-launched his solo career with exceptional gusto, in the form of "Blue Views", an incredibly smooth album which capitalised beautifully on Paul's soulful singing and old school song writing talent.
		Paul Carrack seems to have settled comfortably into his own recording niche and successful live career, but if he were finished with the Mechanics, I imagine he would have called it a day after the death of Paul Young.

	REVIEW (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Carrack makes it clear on this first track and on "Time to Let Go" which follows it that in order to make the most of today, you have to let go of yesterday.
		Carrack's distinctive blue-eyed soul vocals are the perfect match for the gospel-stylings of the title track, on which additional backing vocalists provide a church choir feel and big gospel finish.
		Carrack slows it down again on "Close to Me," "It Goes Without Saying" and "If You'd Ever Needed Someone" but pulls out all the stops on the rousing closer "Some Kinda Love" on which he gives a performance that would make Steve Winwood take some notes.

	Paul Carrack : Blue Views - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		After spending eight years working with Mike + the Mechanics, among other bands and side projects, Paul Carrack returned in 1996 with Blue Views.
		Because Carrack's side projects since the mid-'80s have all been variations on slick but soulful pop-rock, it's not a surprise that Blue Views sounds like it could have been released in 1991.
		That's not necessarily a bad thing, since Carrack's vocals are terrific and the sound is appealingly polished.
