Leon Huff - Here To Create Music

Review by Gary Jackson

Here To Create Music is an iconic album by the legendary musician Leon Huff. Released in 1980, this album features a collection of soulful and funky tracks that showcase Huff's immense talent as a musician, songwriter, and producer.

From the upbeat and groovy "I Ain't Jivin', I'm Jammin'" to the soulful ballad "No Greater Love," each track on this album is a testament to Huff's artistic vision and musical prowess. The album also features collaborations with some of the most talented musicians of the time, including the likes of Patti LaBelle and Bunny Sigler.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Tight Money," which features a funky bassline, catchy lyrics, and a chorus that will have listeners singing along in no time. Another highlight is "This Is The Moment," a soulful ballad that showcases Huff's incredible vocal range and emotional depth.

Great West Coast Swing Song!! :) <3

My ma would always ask me to play this song whenever we would travel anywhere, grocery store, down to S.C., around the corner, you name it. She'd get her grooved on BIG TIME!! I just heard it again today on the Donny Simpson Show and was dancing and crying at the same time. She's gone now as of last year - 92 years old.. Many great memories here - me and momma..

If you appreciate music , you got to appreciate Philly Soul . It had a smooth , sleek style of it's own which forged it's way into the modern soul era with Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff as the architects . Acts like Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes , The O' Jays , Billy Paul , MFSB , Salsoul Orchestra , The Three Degrees , and later Lou Rawls laid the foundation .

I found out today this was Leon Huff's song. It's always one producer who could prove they could naturally make a hit aside from behind the boards.

Philly's finest! Whenever I'm away and hear this song it instantly reminds me of being a kid back on the streets of South Philly in the early '70's. Thanks Leon for being one of the people who made my childhood fabulous!

Shout out to Robert Marawa for this one. Listeners of the Marawa sports radio show in the early 2010's know what I'm talking about?
