Check out the new album from The Manhattans featuring Gerald Alston - The Legacy Continues on Spotify, and it is available on their website.
One track stands out to me, which Gerald co-wrote with Stanley Clarke & George Duke, showcasing Gerald's vocal at his best, such warmth and soul, he just seems to get better!

I agree, jaybs - the lp is a nice surprise and worth a listen.
I wasn't expecting a new album. I must check it out. I worked with Gerald Alston when he was signed as a solo artist for Motown. He was a nice guy, and oh so talented. Glad to see he is still in the game. Will have to check this album out. Thank you for posting.Quote:

I rate him up with Levi Stubbs, the two singers that make my eyes fill up on some of the emotion in the voices.Quote:
