Donny Hathaway: Live! (Atlantic K40369 £2.09)
John Abbey, Blues & Soul, 28 April 1972
DONNY HATHAWAY has quietly established himself as one of the most successful of the newer acts. His great strength seems to lie in his knowledge of the musical intricacies, yet still retaining his basic roots. His success as a musical arranger bears out this point and is further confirmed by this fine album, recorded 'live' at the Troubadour Club in Los Angeles and New York's Bitter End.
