Leon Haywood ‎– Back to Stay / Keep It in the Family


When Leon Haywood soared into the R&B Top 20 with Keep It In The Family in 1974, it marked the breakthrough for this singer and musician who had spent the previous decade paying his dues working in the road bands of Sam Cooke and Big Jay McNeely, and achieving minor solo success with 45s on Imperial and Decca.

Leon reaped his reward on joining 20th Century Records at the birth of the Dance Music era in the mid 70s as his R&B hit singles crossed over into the Hot 100, inspiring the release of two notable albums, Back To Stay and Keep It In the Family, which Shout! Records is delighted to re-issue for the first time on CD, together with bonus tracks comprising a selection of contemporary Leon s hit singles and their b-sides on 20th Century, all in a comprehensive double CD package.

Features arrangements by Gene Page (same time collaborator for Haywood label mate Barry White) & James Carmichael. Includes bonus singles tracks, including I Want To Do Something Freaky To You sampled on rap track by Dr Dre, also sampled on Mariah Carey album Charmbracelet .
