OHIO PLAYERS Tenderness (Reissue, Remastered, Expanded Edition)

Popis:

The hidden gem of the Ohio Players catalogue / Digitally remastered by Vic Anesini / First CD pressing from the original master tapes / 2 bonus tracks, including CD debut of “Try A Little Tenderness” 12” remix / New 3000-word essay by A. Scott Galloway including a rare interview with Marvin “Merv” Pierce - “Of all the albums I’ve ever made for mine, I think I like Tenderness the best. Because I got the chance to really write some good things.” – Leroy “Sugarfoot” Bonner, Ohio Players - Originally released in 1981 on the Boardwalk Records label, Tenderness finds a slimmed-down Ohio Players lineup featuring original members Leroy “Sugarfoot” Bonner, Marshall “Rock” Jones, Marvin “Merv” Pierce and Ralph “PeeWee” Middlebrooks (with a crucial assist from classic-era drummer James “Diamond” Williams) tackling a new decade. The band’s 13th album stands today as its last great organic work. Two Otis Redding covers first capture the attention, yet it’s the depth of soulfulness in Sugarfoot’s own compositions and performances that make Tenderness a must-hear entry in the Ohio Players discography.
