Tough Guys Vinyl Record

"Tough Guys is a daring, widescreen, progressive funk album from one of the genre's finest craftsmen. Because Hayes was Black, and rooted in R&B radio, he didn't get lumped in with the prog-rock groups then making waves on the rock charts, but he should have been. He was making music as expansive and expressive as Emerson, Lake and Palmer, and Yes; he was just doing it in a different context. The soundtrack for Hayes' ¬first major film role, Tough Guys would echo throughout history as much for the way it matched the grimy, over-the-top story of the ¬film it accompanies, but also in the way its songs were chopped up and re-imagined, appearing in everything from Geto Boys songs to Quentin Tarantino movies. (AAA) lacquers cut from the original master tapes by Ryan Smith, Sterling Sound. 180 gram black audiophile vinyl pressed at QRP, Salina, KS. Includes exclusive listening notes booklet by Andrew Winistorfer. "
