what brought me here..I was just watching the tv show 'MAUDE'....was always curious to know who the singer is who sang the opening theme song of the show..I always thought it was a white guy..how wrong I was..I have been researching Donny Hathaway for the last hour..really interesting stuff..the guys is wickedly talented..anyone know why he committed suicide?
@rhymeandreasoning ...One of my most favorite singers EVER! I met one of his drummers at a gig a few years ago... He shared a bunch of stories with me... Quietly, Donny also had a problem with drugs. There was even some speculations that he didn't actually jump. However, if you wanna hear the female version of Mr Hathaway, check out his daughter Lalah Hathaway.
@killrabbitkill Your father is great artist, as was donny...what great music! truly music now is missing a lot...these were musicians!!!!
