Cray, Robert - Strong Persuader

RARE/2HAND VINYL LP ON MERCURY 1986

Mercury 830 568 made in Holland.

Vinyl NM. Cover VG+.

The set that made Cray a pop star, despite its enduring blues base. Cray's smoldering stance on "Smoking Gun" and "Right Next Door" rendered him the first sex symbol to emerge from the blues field in decades, but it was his innovative expansion of the genre itself that makes this album a genuine 1980s classic. "Nothing but a Woman" boasts an irresistible groove pushed by the Memphis Horns and some metaphorically inspired lyrics, while "I Wonder" and "Guess I Showed Her" sizzle with sensuality.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Cray
