In January of 1979, Donny Hathaway fell fifteen stories from a window of Manhattan's Essex House Hotel in an alleged suicide. He was 33 years old and at the peak of his career. Hathaway was a composer, pianist, and soul singer committed to exploring “music in its totality,” whose influence on generations of singers and musicians.
Author Emily Lordi breaks down his essential "Live" album — one of the all-time great live albums — and offers up the story of Hathaway's life, from his beginning in the church, to his numerous musical collaborations, his tragic death, and his uncanny ability to amplify the power and beauty of his songs in the moment of live performance.
