LOU BOND'S WE PRODUCE LP REISSUED WITH BONUS TRACKS
(February 25, 2010)

 

Late last year and with the help of the Stax Site, Lou Bond was approached in Memphis and the original master tapes which included some great unreleased bonus tracks (a live version of Al Green's "I'm Still In Love With You"!!) were located.  
The remastering turned out excellent, as did the liner notes by Andria Lisle (MOJO, Oxford American).  Andria interviewed dozens of Stax alum regarding Lou's career including Al Bell, Deanie Parker, John Gary Williams. See the one sheet beneath for more info.  
Lou was homeless for a time so he's had a rough life.  The album has been sampled by everyone from Outkast to Mary J. Blige, and sadly Lou never received a penny.  Fortunately though, he's starting to receive some money so things are turning around.  He has a fascinating story.
 
The release date is March 16th for the CD, LP, and Digital (iTunes, etc.). Look at the Light In The Attic site:
