Force M.D.'S – Let Me Love You (Blue Translucent 2-LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Staten Island's Force M.D.'s occupy a genuinely rare position in 1980s music history, bridging the vocal harmony tradition with the emerging sounds of hip-hop and new jack swing before that lane even had a name. Their collaborations with producers like Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis placed them alongside the era's defining hitmakers, and their street-rooted harmonies gave that polished production real emotional weight.
Force M.D.’s Greatest Hits captures one of the key vocal groups that helped move classic doo-wop harmony into the hip-hop/R&B era. Coming out of Staten Island, the group could handle street-corner ballads, electro-era R&B, and polished crossover material without losing their vocal-group foundation. The essentials are here: “Tender Love,” their Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis-produced breakthrough, hit #10 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #23 in the UK; “Love Is a House” became their biggest R&B chart success, reaching #1 on Billboard’s Hot R&B Singles chart; and “Tears” gave them an early signature moment, peaking at #5 on the Hot R&B Singles chart. This greatest hits compilation brings together 17 of their top tracks on two LPs.
