Turn up the soul with the second studio album from Mick Hucknall and Simply Red, Men and Women. Released in 1987 on WEA Records (Catalog No. 2292-42071-4 / WX 85C), this authentic vintage cassette features the band's critically acclaimed shift into polished, horn-driven sophisticated soul and funk.
Produced by the legendary Alex Sadkin, this multi-platinum classic includes the smash hit singles "The Right Thing" and "Infidelity", alongside a timeless cover of Cole Porter's "Ev'ry Time We Say Goodbye". Celebrated for its rich basslines, brilliant brass sections, and Hucknall’s signature soaring vocals, this tape delivers the quintessential warm, analog pop sound of the late 1980s.
A fantastic addition for retro collectors, pop/soul fans, or anyone growing their vintage cassette storefront.
