''UpTight'' is a soundtrack album by southern soul band Booker T. & the MG's for the film of the same title. The album's highlights include "Time Is Tight," the single version of which became a US Top 10 hit (the second-biggest of their career) and a signature song for the band. The version of "Time Is Tight" included on the ''Up Tight'' soundtrack album is an alternate recording, which differs from the single version in several respects - it is in stereo, it is played at a faster tempo, it runs almost two minutes longer (4'55"), and it includes both an extended introduction and an instrumental "breakdown" (beginning around 3'30"), neither of which appear in the single version. "Johnny, I Love You" (the B-side of "Time Is Tight") features a rare vocal by keyboardist Booker T. Jones. Judy Clay provides vocals on "Children, Don't Get Weary." The album was recorded at Stax Records' studios by Ron Capone, produced by Jones, and was overdubbed and mixed at Ardent Studios by Steve Cropper and Terry Manning. The album charted at number 98 on the ''Billboard'' 200 album chart and number 7 on the ''Billboard'' R&B Albums chart. The song "Time is Tight" was covered by The Clash on their 10-inch vinyl ''Black Market Clash'' LP in 1980 (and later on their ''Super Black Market Clash'' CD) and by Paul Shaffer on his 1993 double CD ''The World's Most Dangerous Party''. ==Track listings== All tracks composed by Booker T.
