Heaven and Hull


Heaven and Hull is the third solo album by Mick Ronson. Having been released in 1994 following his death the previous year, it was his first posthumous release. It featured collaborations by longtime friends of Ronson including David Bowie, Joe Elliott, and Ian Hunter. Other artists included Martin Chambers and Chrissie Hynde, Phil Collen and John Mellencamp. The "All the Young Dudes" track on Heaven and Hull is from the Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert, where Ronson was suffering from cancer. It was his last concert.
On the CD notes, there is a quote from Sham Morris, one of the album's producers:
The bridge shown in the album artwork is not the Humber Bridge.
Two songs from the album, "Midnight Love" and "Like a Rolling Stone" were included in the 2017 feature-length biographical documentary, and compilation Soundtrack, entitled Beside Bowie: The Mick Ronson Story.
