More Info:

Limited edition of 1000 numbered copies on red coloured 180-gram audiophile vinyl. Ronnie McNeir's self-titled debut album, released in 1972, showcases his soulful voice and songwriting talent, blending R&B, soul, and funk. The album, characterized by lush arrangements and a warm, analog sound, captures the essence of early '70s music. Rich brass sections, smooth strings, and intricate rhythms complement McNeir's expressive vocals. The album's themes of love, loss, family, and gratitude are reflected in heartfelt lyrics and smooth melodies, establishing McNeir as a significant figure in the soul music scene. In 1999, McNeir joined The Four Tops as their musical director and keyboardist, marking a new chapter for both him and the group. His talents as a keyboardist, vocalist, and arranger blended his soulful style with The Four Tops' established sound. Ronnie McNeir is a soulful debut that captures the essence of early '70s R&B, partly due to the production by acclaimed Motown producer William "Mickey" Stevenson. It is a testament to Ronnie McNeir's talent as both a vocalist and a songwriter, with "Extra, Extra" and "In Summertime" as stand-out tracks. This album is a must-listen for fans of classic soul and R&B music.
