This is probably Donny Hathaway´s best album. I say this beacuse it is his most complete piece of work. This is the album this where he truly reached his creative peak. (he could have peaked even higher)Here is where we really get to hear Donny Hathaway the composer, the producer, musician as well as singer. On the absolutely wonderful I love the lord, he heard my cry. Donny´ does something that is rare in the field of soul music, he begins with an orchestral piece that sounds like something that you would hear at a symphony. MAGNIFICENT !That song bleeds into the next track the amazing someday we´ll all be free. Another Hathaway compostion that I love is the instrumental Valdez in the country. Donny sounds refreshing on the keyboards. I love you more than you´ll ever know is another amazing otis redding type of ballad sung as only Donny could. Then theres the light and breezy Love, love , Love where his voice sounds makes a simple song unique. The slums is a very funky return of Donny Hathaway to one of his earler hits the Ghetto. I know it´s you is another exceptional ballad that screams sincertiy and soul. There´s also a bonus track the soulful lord help me, a return to Donny´s gospel roots. Like i mentioned that this is probably Donny Hathaway´s best album. From begining to end it´s full of beautiful music sung by a wonderful singer.
