Released on Curtom Records in 1975, Hutson illuminates the fickleness and unpredictable nature of the music business.
Leroy Hutson seemed to have it all going for him; he replaced
Curtis Mayfield in
the Impressions, then branched out solo, was a friend of
Donny Hathaway (who also worked for
Mayfield at the time), and was given carte blanche to produced hits -- with the help of others -- for himself. The biorhythms must have been out of whack, because it never really happened for the talented guy. This is a fine effort with bouncy tunes, stirring ballads, and crack productions -- yet the masses never heard it. Best bets: All. But special mention to "Lucky Fellow," "All Because of You," and "So Much Love." ~ Andrew Hamilton
