Donny Hathaway
Comment:
Donny Hathaway made breezy look deceptively easy on his duets with Roberta Flack, like the fireplace-starter "For All We Know." At the same time, this soul poet could just as easily reach deep into his own troubled heart to charge his personal vision with the blues and gospel sounds he grew up on. The impact was as heavy as the results were unforgettable; his groove-greased reinvention of Ray Charles' "I Believe to My Soul" smacks an uptown-Saturday-night arrangement up against bottom-of-the-well romantic desperation, and with inspirational messages like "Someday We'll All Be Free," Hathaway made personal [i]and[/i] social statements through the power of soul.
