- 'It Ain't Over 'Til It's Over'.
PAUL Carrack will be on stage in Southport on the 7 February as part of a promotional tour of the UK. Pual Carrack 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.
By the time he reached his teens, the Mersey Boom was in full swing, and the young Carrack proceeded to pave his way into a series of local bands, learning to play the organ and following the gig circuit to Germany, where he underwent the obligatory Hamburg nightclub baptism, as pioneered by The Beatles and many since.
In the early '70s, his progressive rock outfit Warm Dust released a few albums, but it was only when his pub-rock band Ace had a huge global hit with his song
"How Long" that Paul's career really started to take off.
After a highly successful career, he has now on the road for his new album is called It
Ain't Over 'Till It's Over.
