He was born March 4, 1944 in Cleveland, Ohio, and died after suffering from diabetes, cancer and AlzheimerÆs in Tarzana, California on June 27, 2014. This year marks the 40th anniversary of the initial release of The Poet, the Bobby Womack album that served to relaunch his career and established him as a renewed force to be reckoned with in the urban music field in the 1980s. That album was followed by The Poet II which further solidified WomackÆs position as the industryÆs leading exponent of traditional soul. Now, for the first time, these influential classic albums have been remastered from the original tapes. Long believed to be lost, the original tapes have been recovered and are sourced for the remasters of The Poet and The Poet II. To offer the best possible listening experience, both The Poet and The Poet II will be pressed on heavyweight (180 gram) vinyl, making the albums available in the vinyl marketplace for the first time in decades. The historic albums packaged on LP and CD with extensive liner notes by R&B scholar Bill Dahl. Shortly after its release, The Poet, produced by Womack, rose to the #1 slot on BillboardÆs Top R&B Album chart and thus provided commercial validation for his musical posture that was so removed from the disco trend of the era. █ ▐█▌ TRACKLIST ██▓ █▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀ ▐█▌█▌ ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀█████████▀▀▀▀█▓▓█████████▀▀████▀██ █ ▄ ▄█▄ ████▓ ■ ▄ ▓▀▀▀ ▀▀█▓ ▐▓▓█████████ ■ ▀█▄ ▄█ █ ▀▓▄▄ ▀ ██▌█▓ ■ ▄▄▓▀ ▄▀▀█▄ ▀█▄ ▐██ ▀▓▓█▓█████▌ ▄▓▄ ▀████ █ ▄ ▀▓█▀█▄ ██▌▓▓ ▄█▀█▓▀ ▀▄ ▀▄ ▀█▄ ███▌ ▀▀▀▓▓███▄ ▀ ▐███ █▀▓▀ ▀█▄▀█▄ ▐█▌▓▌ ▄█▀██▀ ■ ■ ▀ ▀▀▓▀ ▄█████▄ ▀▓███ ░▓███ ██▄▄▄▄▄ ▀▓▄██▄▀▓▀▄█▀▄▓▀ ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▓██████████▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▓██████████ ▀███████▀ ▄▓██▀ █ ▀██▓▄ ▄▓▀▀ ▐▌ ▀▀█▄ ▀ ▀ ▀ 1.
