Cruel To Be Kind. In the UK, he’s also known for all of that, but also for a Top 10 hit in ‘78, I Love The Sound Of Breaking Glass. & for being in the bands Brinsely Schwarz & Rockpile prior to going solo.
Rockpile did have one Hot 100 hit- Teacher Teacher (#55) from 1980. It was from their only LP.

Nick has released 13 solo studio LPs & tho only the first 2 from the late 70’s were big sellers (due to the 2 aforementioned hit singles), all of his work has been critically respected, including his production work for Elvis Costello, Pretenders & Carlene Carter. He’s a UK & US national treasure.
