| | Tavares Biography and Update at SoulTracks |
 | | If their first three albums set the Tavares brothers up for success, the fourth, Sky High, (produced by Motown veteran writer/producer Freddie Perren) and its international hits, "Heaven Must Be Missing An Angel" and "Don’t Take Away the Music," led the group to the "A" list of popular black artists. | | | They released two albums for RCA, New Directions and Words and Music, which featured the Grammy-nominated "Penny For Your Thoughts" and their final RandB hit, "Deeper In Love," but the albums were overall an artistic step down from the group’s highest moments. | | | Ralph Tavares and I kept in touch over the next few years, during the group's frustrating final years with Capitol and their time with RCA, right through to the time of a difficult decision that Ralph made in 1983. |

| | The Perren-produced Sky High (1976), their fourth album, yielded hits in "Don't Take Away The Music," and in the Gold single "Heaven Must Be Missing An Angel." Love Storm, which contained the popular "Whodunnit" and "Goodnight My Love," and The Best Of Tavares followed in quick and chart-storming succession in 1977. | | | The hard times, when Ralph held down a full-time mechanics in a aircraft plant and contributed his share of the group's professional earnings to the family kitty, and Tiny attended a trade school in case his singing career failed, are long gone for Tavares. | | | Mid-tempo tunes on the album include the smooth and sophisticated "We're Both Ready For Love," and the graceful, airy "All I See Is You." The R&B-textured "Honey Can I" and Feliciano Tavares' well-wrought love song "Feel So Good" round out the Perren-produced LP. |

| | The group Quatro has a track which is a sequel to one of their hits on their debut album. | | | These two Cape Verdean producers manage to gather the most energetic and visually appealing (check the album booklet) group of talent I've ever heard or seen. | | | Bind this with BOOMBASTIC bass featured on this album and some of the most unique compositions I've heard in a while - melding so many different styles of music, I can only come to one conclusion: this album is truly the bomb! |

| | The singer Tony Tavares had left the group before the second album was recorded, so it lacks a strong, charismatic lead vocal, what is one of my main reservations, along with a somewhat unfinished feel the album has to it. | | | The album, though, came packaged in a garishly colourful sleeve with a cosmic eye and pyramid in the centre, sleeve notes praising the drug-induced psychedelic experience, identifying the quest for pure sanity, and contained ten more chunks of superb rocking psychedelic music. | | | Apart from being an enjoyable album (although personally I find the three main piano ballads a bit wearing), this is an excellent document of how musical styles were changing at the cusp of a new decade and implying what (commercially) they would soon become. |
