Roger Troutman - So Ruff So Tuff (1981) The Many Facets of Roger was the debut solo project by Dayton, Ohio-based funk musician Roger Troutman, released a year after the singer made his debut as lead frontman of his family-based funk group, Zapp, and the group had made their breakthrough with the funk hit More Bounce to the Ounce. The album went platinum based on the R&B successes of So Ruff, So Tuff and his cover of Marvin Gayes I Heard It through the Grapevine. In the album, Troutman featured two instrumentals, A Chunk of Sugar and Blue (A Tribute to the Blues), which was recorded inside Detroits United Sound Studios. Rogers brothers and his cohorts in Zapp, Larry, Lester and Terry also helped to contribute to the solo release.
