Much like Jude Cole, Paul Carrack's extensive resume would shame most established musicians. Credited for his work in Ace, Squeeze, Mike + The Mechanics, and Roger Waters, Paul Carrack has quietly kicked some major ass in the music business. His biggest solo tune was 1987's "Don't Shed A Tear" which is one of those songs that would probably stump even the most avid music lover during an "Audio Daily Double" on Jeopardy.
Phil Collins, Elton John, and Gloria Estefan dominated Adult Contemporary radio back in the 1980s and '90s, yet have disappeared from modern radio. Seemingly, the only time you ever hear them is at the grocery store or your local CVS. This blog remembers the music, the stories and the quirky characters from my days working in Adult Contemporary radio.
