Howard Tate-Howard Tate's re-emergence over the past decade was gratifying in this age of mediocrity. His performances have drawn rave reviews throughout the country, and his vocal chops are as strong and elastic as during the Golden Days. This re-issue of the 1972 ATLANTIC LP was produced by Jerry Ragovoy who was also responsible for Tate's awesome releases a few years earlier for the VERVE label. This set reflects the funky. slinky sounds of soul in the early 70's, and covers many Ragovoy gems as well as an amazing reinterpretation of Bob Dylan's ''Girl Of The North Country'' This is true, quality soul with great songs and one of the best voices of the classic soul era.....................
