Music Appreciation
Tender Love was a song that appeared in the 1985 musical comedy film, Krush Groove, based on the early days of Def Jam Recordings and a little known record producer named Russell "Walker." The heartthrob Blair Underwood portrayed the Russell Simmons character in the film.
Written by R&B pop songwriters Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis -- better known for their Grammy Award winning production of Janet Jackson's Control album -- Tender Love introduced Force MDs, a new jack swing / old school band, to Adult Contemporary.
The group from Staten Island, New York took the song to number 4 on the R&B charts and number 2 on the Adult Contemporary chart.
