Product Description
Following the release of Alexander O’Neal: The Tabu Anthology (TABUBOX0002) and The Tabu Records Box Set (TABUBOX0001) it gives us great pleasure to finally unveil the third box set of the trilogy from one of the most loved acts of the 1980s, so welcome to The S.O.S. Band: The Tabu Anthology. Curated with love by veteran expert, broadcaster, journalist, writer and all-round soulman Ralph Tee - compiler of the Philadelphia International 40th Anniversary Box Set, Alexander O’Neal: The Tabu Anthology and The Tabu Records Box Set, this superb anthology covers all of the S.O.S. Band’s original Tabu album releases plus 2 further discs – one featuring all their key 7” mixes and the other featuring all their key 12” releases. The S.O.S. Band were Tabu Records' most consistent hit-makers throughout the 1980s and early 90s kicking off with the effervescent “Take Your Time (Do It Right)” in early 1980 through to “Sometimes I Wonder” in late 1991. Scoring 20 U.S. RnB hits and 6 U.S. Pop hits throughout this period, the band also scored several significant international successes too. In addition to this, we also have a 40 page booklet with an introduction by Ralph Tee and featuring all of the S.O.S. Band expanded edition sleeve notes courtesy of Justin ‘Musicology’ Kantor, all of which contain key biographical information, original photos and record scans. If you want a comprehensive overview of the S.O.S. Band’s entire recorded output, then look no further because it’s all contained here!
