He has been one of the country\\u2019s more astute songwriters - composer of the most joyful melodies, the most barbed lyrics - for four full decades now. Paul Heaton first found fame in the mid-1980s with The Housemartins, one of that decade\\u2019s more gleefully idiosyncratic acts. \\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003eBy 1989, he was fronting the Beautiful South, and set about subverting the entire concept of the radio-friendly love song with standout tracks including \\u2018Song For Whoever\\u2019, \\u2018Don\\u2019t Marry Her\\u2019 and \\u2018Perfect 10\\u2019. The Beautiful South sold 15 million records before breaking up in 2007 due to \\u201cmusical similarities\\u201d. Few of his peers could boast such sales. Heaton went solo, and later rejoined fellow bandmate Jacqui Abbott again in 2011. As a duo, they have earned a further three UK Top 5 albums in the past 5 years.\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003eThis November sees the release of Paul Heaton\\u2019s musical anthology \\u2018The Last King Of Pop\\u2019, a 23-track opus that celebrates his career over the past four decades. The album includes the biggest tracks from Heaton\\u2019s catalogue \\u2013 with early Housemartin\\u2019s track including \\u2018Happy Hour\\u2019, \\u2018Flag Day\\u2019, sitting alongside some of the 90s most recognisable Beautiful South singles \\u2018Rotterdam\\u2019, \\u2018A Little Time\\u2019, to modern classics \\u2018D.I.Y\\u2019 and \\u2018Austerity Of Love\\u2019.\\r\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49036536250690,"sku":"913695","price":40.48,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/51aZKv0MbYL._SL1500.jpg?v=1718277925","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/paul-heaton-the-last-king-of-pop-vinyl","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
