About the album

Embodying his life’s approach of compassion, courage, and optimism, The Wayman Tisdale Story is a feature length documentary that offers a detailed account of the life of former basketball star and jazz musician Wayman Tisdale. Told through his own words, The Wayman Tisdale Story journeys through Tisdale’s life from this childhood as a preacher’s son to his battle with cancer. A story of human courage in the face of adversity, the documentary airs on ESPN and NBA TV this fall, with the DVD and CD/DVD release to follow on November 22 from Rendezvous Music/Mack Avenue. Rendezvous Music compliments the telling of Wayman’s story with a soundtrack featuring 13 tracks, including the previously unreleased track, “Slam Dunk,” produced by Jeff Lorber, and “Cryin’ For Me,” which was written and performed as a tribute to Wayman by Toby Keith.
Wayman Tisdale (1964-2009) war ein erfolgreiche Sportler (Basketball Gold bei Olympia 1084) und viele Jahre, bis 1997, Profi in der nordamerikanischen NBA. Schon während seiner aktiven Zeit nahm er als Funk- und Smooth-Jazz Bassist mehrere Alben auf, nach Ende der Profikarriere als Sportler begann die musikalische - mehrere seiner Platten erreichten hohe Billboard-Plazierungen. Tragisch war sein Ende: nach einem Sturz wurde 2007 Knochentumor entdeckt, dem er schon zwei Jahre später erlag. Die vorliegende 'Wayman-Tisdale-Story' liefert eine Zusammenstellung der Hits aus den insgesamt 8 Alben, eine weitere CD-ROM mit einer 66-minütigen Dokumentation über den Musiker (mit Beiträgen und Interviews mit u.a. Marcus Miller, Michael Jordan) - und auch eine DVD des gleichen Inhalts. Für Funk/Smooth/Gospel/R'n'B- und Basketball-Fans gleichermaßen ein 'Must-Have'!
