description

The American jazz, soul and blues artist Donny Hathaway
recorded the music to the movie Come Back, Charleston
Blue back in 1972. The film, which was shot in Harlem,
is perfectly fine in the hands of Hathaway. He creates
the whole feeling of being part of the story in ‘70s New
York. The influences of Hathaway on the American soul
music are widely known and he’s showing some of his
best pieces on this soundtrack. His classic “Little Ghetto
Boy” is incredible soulful and funky at the same time. His
vocals can be heard on “Tim’s High”. Most impressive
is the album as a whole, while he is switching between
ragtime, Latin American music and jazz. A must have for
every 70s jazz and funk enthusiast.
