Howard Johnson – Doin’ it my way, 1983 A&M Records. The two 12 inches from this album are Let’s take time out and Let this dream be real, both featured on CD as bonustracks. Produced by Mic Murphy and David Frank. A great follow up album of Keepin’ Love New.

Howard Johnson hails from Florida. U.S.A. Like many others he began his singing career in local bars and clubs. In 1977 he was discovered by Sandu Torano (guitarist and producer associated with The Commodores and Phylis Hyman) who asked him to join his vocal group Nite Flyte. Nite Flyte had a recording contract with Ariola and this is how Johnson’s career took off. Nite Flyte recorded only two albums with Ariola but it created enough of a buzz for A&M to sign Howard Johnson for a solo career.

His debut album Keepin’ love new was produced by a trio of producers featuring Kashif, Paul Laurence and Morris Brown. He did in total three albums with A&M. The third album on A&M Records ‘The Vision’ is also released by PTG Records.
