Dude Records presents a brand-new album from TACK>>HEAD. They have performed hits for millions of music fans. The list of their clients is long -- in fact it couldn't be any longer and it includes some of the most illustrious names around: The Rolling Stones, Seal, Annie Lennox, Madonna, Mick Jagger, Nine Inch Nails, Lauryn Hill, Mos Def, R.E.M., Charlie Watts, Tina Turner, Miles Davis, Peter Gabriel, James Brown, Depeche Mode, Malcolm McLaren, George Clinton, Herbie Hancock, Duran Duran, BB King, The Cure, Donna Summer, Billy Idol, Al Green, African Bambaata, Mark Stewart, and many, many more. They are more than just highly-talented individual artists and absolute luminaries in their field. The New York Times once called them "one of today's most extraordinary rhythm sections." They aren't just musicians, but also producers, remixers and friends and supporters of fellow musicians. Now, after 23 years, finally there is a new album -- and it almost exclusively features cover versions of artists who have inspired TACK>>HEAD. Along with The Meters, Funkadelic, David Bowie/Brian Eno, Stevie Wonder, and the Ohio Players, the album also pays tribute to two reggae giants -- Bob Marley and Errol Dunkley -- by getting them "into TACK>>HEAD shape." TACK>>HEAD have always been famous for being acerbic commentators of the prevailing political and social conditions and on the new album they again deliver a highly topical statement in our day and age... For the Love of Money. What better time to listen to the remake of TACK>>HEAD's biggest hit "Stealing?" The band has paid tribute to Bim Sherman and immortalized his voice (they also covered themselves because they like what they do). 15-track CD in media book packaging (strictly limited edition of 999 copies with handcrafted serial number).
