Paul is one of the finest singers in the Rock N Roll era, bar none. This song, recorded by Ace in 1975, still rings true. He is a LEGEND.

Paul was the Ace frontman and principal song writer.

It’s one of my favorites from the 70’s. I think Ace recorded it in 1974, and it’s the 1st song Paul Carrack wrote. There’s an awesome live version on KZbin from 2017 too.

How Long is this been going on. When I was young boy I love those songs and the voice who sing these songs. Every performance I have seen in recent years, it has always been a celebration with the many fans whose hearts have been conquered with the great and rich ouvre of beautiful songs. And after so many years these songs are still classical favourites. You gave me more than One good reason for Blue views and a more Beautiful World. Your music, songs and voice Satisfy my soul. You did some Grooving and you are Still Groovin. It ain't over. But The Story So Far is I Know That Name for so many years even when you have A Different Hat. Your album Collected gives me a Good Feeling when it Rain or shine. You are so Dedicated to music. I hope that you also will do a tour in the Netherlands. In the past you gave some awesome concerts in my hometown Zoetermeer. Thank you for your beautiful songs and voice for almost 50 years. You make me feel good. Thank you for this music clip in which it can be seen that the spectator is always being treated to a fantastic performance.
