J.D. Souther - Tenderness

Vinyl LP pressing. 2015 release from the veteran singer/songwriter. After a 25 year performing hiatus, JD Souther returned to recording and live performance in 2008, blending his trademark Americana-influenced style with new flavors of jazz and blues. On Tenderness, he worked with Grammy Award-winning producer Larry Klein who has produced albums for Joni Mitchell, Madeleine Peyroux, Herbie Hancock and Tracy Chapman, to name a few. Tenderness is a late-night masterpiece, haunting and wise and entirely reflective of the persona of this mysteriously brilliant American treasure. An architect of the Southern California sound and a huge influence on modern songwriting, J.D. Souther has written or co-written many of the Eagles hits including 'Heartache Tonight,' 'Victim of Love,' 'New Kid in Town,' 'Best of my Love,' Don Henley's 'The Heart of the Matter,' as well as the Eagles' 2007 hit, 'How Long.' Linda Ronstadt has recorded many of his songs, including 'Faithless Love,' 'Simple Man, Simple Dream,' and 'Prisoner in Disguise.'
