Description

long version taken from the album Sky High.

Series: Light Mellow's Picks –. Format: CD, Album, Reissue, Remastered.

The album peaked at No. 20 on the R&B albums chart.

But it would be a mistake to believe that Sky High! isn't relevant to soul; in fact, "To the Other Man" and "Guiding Star" are exactly the type of smooth Northern soul ballads that had put Tavares on the map in 1973 and 1974. And "Don't Take Away the Music," like the Trammps' best recordings, is a perfect marriage of Philadelphia soul and Philadelphia disco - it has just the right blend of grit and gloss.

1 Commercial performance. The album features the singles "Heaven Must Be Missing an Angel", which peaked at No. 3 on the Hot Soul Singles chart and No. 15 on the Billboard Hot 100, and "Don't Take Away the Music", which charted at No. 14 on the Hot Soul Singles chart and No. 34 on the Billboard Hot 100. Both songs reach No. 1 on the Hot Dance Club Play chart.

Their first album with Freddie Perren at the production helm, Sky High! includes R&B-flavored tracks of the kind for which the group had become known via their earlier albums, but is best remembered for its two disco-oriented tracks "Heaven Must Be Missing an Angel" and "Don't Take Away the Music", whose combination of the group's soulful vocals and. harmonies with Perren's glossy, shimmering production have proved enduringly popular.
