Howard Hewett [2021] - To Thee I Pray [Music Access]


I would guess that many 'real' soul connoisseurs may dismiss Shalamar as a bit of a lightweight dance act. Jeffrey Daniel and Jody Watley were both dancers on Soul Train before they were 'chosen' for the group. However, there should be no doubt about the soul credentials of Howard Hewett who has gone on to release ten solo albums.

Shalamar are currently doing the rounds on tour in the UK with several solo dates for Hewett. The group has undergone many line-up changes over the years with Hewett leaving in 1986 and then re-joining around 2000. The current line-up consists of Hewett, Daniels and Carolyn Griffith (who is the daughter of Carrie Lucas) replacing original member Jody Watley.

Hewett has chosen to re-record 1992 "Allegiance" album track "To Thee I Pray" as his new single.

There's a snippet of it in the video below posted on his YT channel back in April since when I've had this post lined up waiting for its release, which was only yesterday!
