Synopsis

Album Description
The members of MTB were good ol? boys at heart, but it was during the recording of the Top 40 album Tenth that rock ?n? roll excess started to rear its ugly head. You?d never know it from the music, which reached back to the original sound of the debut on such songs as "Save My Soul," which recalls the hit song "Can?t You See," and "Sing My Blues" ? a song about the Caldwell brothers? years of playing the local club circuit before forming MTB. Patti Austin contributes backing vocals to "Gospel Singin? Man

Unexpectedly good

"I have always liked MTB but I must confess that I have only have heard their first four albums so I was a little reluctant to purchase any album past that.I took my chances on 'Tenth' and boy am I glad I did.There is not a bad song on the entire cd.This cd was an easy 5 star rating and is right up there with the best of any MTB albums."

"It was great to get this on CD. I used to listed to this, on cassette, back in 1980 when it came out. I am not a big fan of southern rock, but this is a great CD, musically and lyrically."
Five for Ten ... a perfect score.

"The ten tracks compiled on the 1980 release entitled "Tenth" compare favorably with any offering in the MTB catalog. My initial impression upon hearing "Tenth" was similar to what I felt after my first listen to the band's final Capricorn release "Together Forever" in 1978: Is this real or am I dreaming? Every track is so well written and is performed in that inimitable Marshall Tucker style that one can't help but be reminded of what a special and unique group of musicians the original Marshall Tucker Band was.



For fans of Toy Caldwell's tasty guitar licks, there are plenty of fine examples spread across the ten tracks in this collection. Toy even collaborates with George McCorkle on a short instrumental tribute to Jimi Hendrix appropriately entitled "Jimi" that is tastefully done. Yet, for me, the stand out artist on "Tenth" is Paul Riddle. Never one to go over the top to draw attention to his performance, Mr. Riddle's drumming truly shines through here. The steady intensity he displays on the standout cooker "Cattle Drive" is most impressive.
