Wonderful collection of disco/soul/funk from the mid-seventies, including their biggest hits “Heaven Must Be Missing an Angel” and “It Only Takes a Minute.” They ended up on the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack, doing “More Than A Woman.” But even if you don’t like disco, they are well worth checking out.
They were from New Bedford MA / Providence Rhode Island, and Bernie Worrell briefly joined Tavares in 1968 while he was at the New England Conservatory of Music.
My copy—via Bull Moose Records in Plaistow NH—was part of a $2 grab bag of ten random LPs! What a great find (it does have a cutout corner as you can see in the pictures, but sounds great).

@john as a young New Englander who could never get out of his own way… I got arrested in New Bedford once. ?
