Donny Hathaway - Everything is Everything (1970)

"Afterwards, he was a genius, but right then, he was just another guy tryin."
- Joel Dorn






This album was Donny's Reasonable Doubt. No record label pressure. No screaming fans. No sophomore slump. No expectations.

Donny Hathaway, along with Stevie, reinvented American soul music. Donny's rookie album took a Ray Charles track and improved it (I Believe to My Soul). The arrangements, the voice, the band, everything blended perfectly. His voice nearly overshadows his virtuosic keyboard skills.

A soul classic. An American classic. Don't sleep. For you hip hop fiends, find the samples.
