The Poet II Vinyl

The original tapes are sourced for the remasters of The Poet II by Bobby Womack. The Poet II is pressed on heavyweight 180 gram vinyl, making the album available in the vinyl marketplace for the first time in decades. The historic album is packaged with extensive liner notes by R&B scholar Bill Dahl.

The massive success of The Poet set the stage for the recording of The Poet II in 1983. As with its predecessor, The Poet II found both commercial and critical success on both sides of the Atlantic. Among the album’s highlights are three duets with Patti LaBelle, including “Love Has Finally Come At Last” which ultimately rose to #3 on Billboard’s Hot Soul Singles chart.
