Talmadge Armstrong - The Tallest Man In Love (2026) [Hi-Res]

The Tallest Man In Love is a cornerstone of private-press soul history. Talmadge Armstrong (also known as Kris Lamans), a Louisiana native, self-produced and released this work in 1980 on his own Love Records label. Musically, the album blends the sophistication of West Coast soul with driving disco rhythms and funk elements. The 2026 reissue by Numero Group brings this rare artifact back to the masses, preserving its original "garage perfectionist" atmosphere and highlighting Armstrong’s prowess as an arranger and vocalist. Key tracks like "Got To Let Go" and "So Much Feeling (In Your Love)" illustrate the genre's transitional period, where classic R&B met the polished synthesizers of the early 80s.
