CRUEL TO BE KIND is the definitive account of Nick Lowe's
uncompromising life as a songwriter and entertainer, from his days
at Stiff Records, to becoming the driving force behind Rockpile, to
the 1979 smash hit 'Cruel To Be Kind'. Nick's original compositions
have been recorded by the best in the business, from enfant
terrible of the New-Wave, Elvis Costello, to 'The Godfather of
Rhythm and Soul', Solomon Burke; from household names, including
Engelbert Humperdink, Diana Ross, and Johnny Cash, to legendary
vocalists such as Curtis Stigers, Tom Petty, and Rod Stewart. His
reputation as one of the most influential musicians to emerge from
that most formative period for pop and rock music is cast in stone.
He will forever be the man they call the 'Jesus of Cool'. 'Nick's
poise as a singer, his maturity, and his use of tone is beautiful.
I can't believe it's this guy I've been watching since I was a
teenager' Elvis Costello, 2013 'The master of subversive pop' Nick
Kent, NME, 1977 'Nick Lowe is such a f*cking good songwriter! Am I
allowed to say that?' Curtis Stigers, 2016
