Editorial Reviews

Product Description
The prolific Johnny Bristol made his name at Motown as a writer & producer of tracks like Diana Ross & the Supremes' 'Someday We'll Be Together', a song he co-wrote years before. In 1974, he did a successful production assignment for Boz Scaggs & made his solo debut for MGM. In short order, Bristol created an intriguing persona with a patented wry vocal delivery. The title track is a sensual masterpiece that all but summed up his lyrical meter. The infinitely playable & smooth 'You & I' is just as good. 'I Got Cha Number', also on Scaggs' Slow Dancer, has Scaggs coming on to do some fun harmony vocals, but tracks like 'Memories Don't Leave Like People Do' & 'Love Me for Reason' are so-so efforts. This is prime '70s L.A. R&B/pop with Bristol's sure production hand & arrangements by H.B. Barnum. Players include David T. Walker & his singular guitar fills. Polydor Japan.

I first heard this album back in the 70's while living on the island of Barbados. It had come directly from England where it was extremely popular at the time. As a teenager, I identified with the lyrics as well as the delivery, and found it to be very sexy. The music has hung around in my head for many, many years... and I found myself searching for the album over the internet year after year, without any result (not even on Napster). Then, I found the Title Song "Hang On In There Baby" on one of the file sharing systems about 5 years ago, realizing then that the Internet will finally get me back in touch with this super sweet music. Now, here it is, in all it's spendor, and easily available on Amazon. Thank you Amazon, for bringing Johnny Bristol's sweet music back to me.
