Tommy Tate - The Tommy Tate Album - LP (1981) Juana - CD (1987) Timeless - Rare Soul (FLAC)

This will be the 4th album of tommy,s reviewed on the blog if you count the 2 Soulscapes (old blog) and the excellent kent album. This was his 2nd studio album on the mississippi Juana label. Full bio done on the Kent release. This guy just oozes soul from his talented material and a voice to die for! On here he is joined by his very good pals the Controllers ( i have ALL their albums & must review them!) & Towanda Tyrell & produced by the legend that is Frederick Knight so you cant go wrong!..."So much music and so little time" An apt saying that certainly applies to this blog!......Off Topic the wife is dragging me away for the next week but i,m still hoping to post up more goodies. Much to her diamay the pc is packed away with some music. My LP is again badly worn but the CD is doing the job. The 3rd taster was big on the northern scene years ago.
