I played guitar for Willie the last ten years of his life. While he managed to only work 2/3 times a year, it was my pleasure, and honor to work for him.
I love Willie Hutch, I met him in Rochester N.Y 1998 such a kind man with a great stature. He was an under rated composer, musician with a velvet voice. I had the pleasure of seeing him perform twice it was awesome. As you can see I am a big fan of Willie Hutch, this will help his work to be exposed to the people who never heard of him.
I'm 41 years old and I've always loved Willie Hutch and his music!!! I've always said that he was greatly underrated and unappreciated to a certain degree. To me he's in the same class with the greats such as Curtis Mayfield, Issac Hayes, James Brown, Barry White, Stevie Wonder....I could go on!! I really hope they do a big biographical movie on him still because he most certainly and greatly deserves it!!!! R.I.P. to the late great Mr. Willie Hutch and much love and respect to his family!
My uncle Wah Wah Watson was really good friends with Willie! They did a lot of work together in the same circle!!! He would be good for a story too!!! Uncle played on slot of records like Let’s Get It On, Papa Was A Rolling Stone, Carwash, Maxwell’s Urban Hang Suite and some many other hits!!! RIP to both
“I choose you” was his signature song as a former D.J. and “ Party Down”. You didn’t mention neither of those songs. I was only 12 when “The Mack” album came out and it was very popular in my city in Illinois. I am surprised it didn’t rate higher than it did. “ I choose you” was on their and “Slick”, an instrumental I love called I believe “The Chase”.
That's true im from the Chi too but you know it was hard for anything on that soundtrack to top those drums on Brothers Gonna Work It Out that beat is at steppers parties ,disco and house and still hitting
My top 3 Willie Hutch joints that aren’t already listed are: 1) I wanted to be a Rock n Roll Star 2) I Can Sho Give u Love 3) Overture of Foxy Brown. Willie Hutch was an orchestral master and deserves a full documentary honoring his work and insights on his legacy. I remember his daughter sung at one time. I had her single about ten years ago. She had a beautiful voice 🧡 I am 27 years old but grew up on Willie’s music. I have most of his records. My fav composer
I love all of those songs, 1)color her sunshine, 2) she's just doing her thing, 3) Brothers gonna work it out. these are just a few of my favorite songs by Mr. Hitch.
FUN FACT: To any of you out there who is familiar with old-school gangsta rap, Willie happens to be the uncle of rappers/producers COLD 187um (Greg Hutchinson), and KOKANE (Jerry Long, Jr.), two co-founding members of legendary Pomona, CA rap group ABOVE THE LAW. They went on to become outstanding producers/arrangers/collaborators in their own right.
Thanks for this story on Mr. Willie Hutch. My favorite jams written by him were I'll Be There and Brother's Gonna Work It Out. He was indeed a gifted singer & writer.
Young Brotha YOU DESERVE AN AWARD 🏆 for your magnificent work. I had no idea Mr. Hutch was killing it like that. Writing, producing and singing! He was a triple threat! May he rest in Power and Peace!🙏🏿
I've been waiting for this for years. Willie has long been one of my favorite recorders. His talent is unmatched and indisputable. I still listen to his music to this day... about fifty years !!! Thank you for putting his story on the map. I'm looking forward to an "UNSUNG" documentary with live interviews and his original songs which.
Hutch was an underrated performer. Loved his singing voice, no one else sounds like he did. He was a big favorite with the pimps, players and hustlers.
One of the greatest singers, producers, and writers in the music business. I'm so happy my parents educated me about his contribution to the entertainment business. Mr. Hutch did the score and soundtracks of the movies in the 70s. His music is timeless and his flowers must be given to him for his outstanding work. R.I.P and we love you forever. 💐 💐 💐
I live in the UK and I've been a fan of Willie Hutch for many years. My favourite of his is 'I Like Everything About You'. Hutch is much sampled and should get the acknowledged he deserves 👏🏽👏🏽
Great stuff as usual, WBPTV! Just to let folks know, I interviewed Producer John Florez earlier this year. He produced both of Willie Hutch's RCA albums, Soul Portrait and Season For Love. Here are the links: On meeting Willie and recording Soul Portrait: th-cam.com/video/GUk2tWFXFJU/w-d-xo.html On Season For Love: th-cam.com/video/V0Ggi618e_I/w-d-xo.html Dude's a great storyteller. Hope everyone enjoys! 😁
👏👏👏 I'm a product of the 60s, and FINALLY somebody understands me.The artists back in the day had PURE TALENT, pride in their craft, and class. i still listen to willie hutch and all the others. 😃 thanx for another great article on the forgotten and/or unappreciated artists of that time.
His nephew is possibly one of the CREATORS of the G-Funk Era of Rap. He goes by Cold 187um aka Big Hutch with the group Above the Law (A.T.L.). He certainly has the bloodline of Willie Hutch. He's very Underrated as a producer and in certain terms, the group has went under the radar in some ways too Rest In Peace & POWER👏 Willie Hutch✊️
Great episode! I did not know he was such a prolific composer/producer for Motown. One of my favorite Willie Hutch songs is entitled "Out There" on the Foxy Brown score. Very futuristic! There's a great sample of it by the Hip Hop group Robust & Pore
I love that album he produced for smokey's first solo album as well. Great talent. Great Writer, Producer and Singer. RIP your music will always live in my heart.
So glad I found your channel, which showcases all the forgotten superstar producers and songwriters of yesteryear. Thanx to your channel, I found out what became of Johnny Bristol and now Willie Hutch! Thanx so much, brother!!
Willie’s voice was very different from most singers…His voice had a raspy pure soulful sound witch catch’s your attention and made you listen deeper than normal…He will go through time as one of those who didn’t get the props he should have . His music reminds me of people like Frankie Beverly music never gets old…one of my best artists…Rest n peace my Brother.
Yes, Mr. WILLIE Hutch was the most Underrated Singer, Producer, Musician, Writer. I had no idea, That he written Songs for The Jackson Five. Mr. WILLIE was just a Multi-talented Person, Who really didn't received the Credit he DESERVED. Great Video 👍👍👍👍👍
I met him when he did the soundtrack for The Mack, which I believe was Richard Pryor's first movies. My cousin David T. Walker was one of the studio musicians. The movie was about The Ward Brothers, Oakland Pimps, one of which was Willie. Willie helped finance the movie and appeared in a few scenes. Doing the making of the movie, the had to hurriedly shift the movie out of Oakland, down to L.A., because Willie was killed. They still got it down. I hope he got paid for all his work. Back in the early days, many writers and artist either didn't get paid, or didn't receive anywhere what they were due, and the color of the money distributor didn't matter.
Mr. Hutch , when I think of his talent I refer to is soundtrack “ The Mack “ You are a true Historian. I learned so much about this brother thanks. The 45’s you use are incredible peace,
Willie Hutch is "THE TRUTH" ! I LOVE his song Baby Come Home. He also sang and wrote I Choose You which was sampled by UGK for their song "Int'l National Players Anthem"! I wish I was born 73 & not 1983! Music was real back then.
From what I can remember The Mack movie score or music sound track put him on the map. The radio, night clubs, house parties or riding in someone's car blasting it on a 8track,he was definitely putting songs out back to back. 50 years later his music still out shines anything call music today. Love me some Willie Hutch. 🎉🎉🎉
My comments are respectful but I have to say how disappointed I am that you just glossed over his Album for The Mack movie. This is the soundtrack that made him known and famous in the 70s. I Choose You, Brothers Gonna Work it Out was heavily played in our black community. Its nice knowing that he worked with The 5th Dimension and of course The hits with the Jackson 5 but I'd never heard any of his songs for the Dimensions and I was a fan. So please showcase his music from the movie the Mack. This is why my friends and I came to know and love Willie Hutch.
Oh wow I didn't know he was the song creator on the movie The Mack 😮. I choose you was everything. I love that original version and the remade version with Outkast.
The GREAT Willie Hutch, is probably the MOST unsung of all the producer, arrangers, writers, and artists on the Motown label. His contributions to 60's and 70's r&b should rank among the most celebrated musical individuals that created a certain sound. I have been and will continue to be, a huge fan of Mr. Willie Mckenley Hutchison.
Thank you for giving me an update on Willie Hutch. Could you do a video on Clifton Davis who starred in "That's my momma," and also wrote the hit song " Never Can Say Goodbye?"
I love willis hutch music I'm only 38 when I was a little kid my dad used to listen to his music my dad had that album the mack I love his music so much I made a t shirt album .bro I love your channel u have some great stories. Love from Houston tx
I love ," slick"! Mr.Hutch performed it on SOUL TRAIN. 😂, I REMEMBER Actor Dick Anthony Williams as Pretty Tony was speaking in the hair salon over it playing in the background!
My favorite Willie Hutch songs is 1 Brothers gonna work it out 2. Inside you 3. The Glow. I love the song Brothers gonna work it out. Because I can the intro on my Acoustic guitar and it is been sampled a lot
Mr. Hutch was truly a special music man . I thought that you would have mentioned my favorite song by him named " Party Down!" That's OK, I did. Keep up the great work. Peace 10:25
I love the song "I Choose You, Baby" from the movie "The Mack" when Goldie is in bed with his woman and he's macking those player's lines " Baby I can give you the world, I can give you jewelry, furs anything you want" and that song is playing in the background.

Willie Hutch was so underrated! Moreover, many people knew and loves his music but just didn’t know who he was..However, I have many favorites but I love”give me some of that good ole love and the theme from the Mack!! “Listen to me everybody, while I tell you a story about the Mack…Thanks for the story..
Three Six Mafia showed Willie a lot of love when he was still alive. Project Pat was the first one to use the I want you beat and 36 mafias song stay fly is from love turned cold
Just as I was about to type that ",Get Ready For The Get Down" was one of my favourite songs EVER, the song showed up on the screen...hee hee "I Just Wanted To Make Her Happy" is also another favourite...I cannot forget "The Glow" either!!!
Who were the artists that he produced? I never heard of him. Wait. Are you talking about the producer for HI FI RECORDS?! AL GREEN, ANN PEEBLES, SYL JOHNSON, ETC??????? Well, no, that's Willie Mitchell!!!!!!😂😂 0:17
Willie Hutch is stil one of my favorite Artist, and underrated. I was exposed to his music when I was 14. I dug: Bother we Can Work it Out and I Chose You from Mack soundtrack. From Concert in Blues: Come on Home and his version of Stormy Weather, just to name a few. You can hear the piano intro of. "Come on Home" on Ghostface Killa featuring Ne Yo " Back Like That" track.
"Come on home" and "what you gonna do after the party" are two of Hutch’s most underrated songs, I was so shocked to find out someone else knew about those gems as well
Willie Hutch became a household name after the great movie the mack , period son .no one ever knew of willie hutch before the mack not taking any thing away from the man but only being truthful.
Since you asked, my favorite Willie Hutch songs (in no particular order): "I'll Be There" (courtesy the Jacksons), "Brothers Gonna Work It Out" (nod to the big homie Dr. Dre), and "In And Out". Will give Keep On Jammin' a listen, thanks for the tip!
I played guitar for Willie the last ten years of his life. While he managed to only work 2/3 times a year, it was my pleasure, and honor to work for him.
Do you still play ?
Yk what happened to him
I love Willie Hutch, I met him in Rochester N.Y 1998 such a kind man with a great stature. He was an under rated composer, musician with a velvet voice. I had the pleasure of seeing him perform twice it was awesome. As you can see I am a big fan of Willie Hutch, this will help his work to be exposed to the people who never heard of him.
Truly underated artist.

Another brotha who should've gotten more accolades when he was alive 😕
Willie was the man… he had so much talent.. May he be Rip!!
Willie Hutch had one of the most unique voices of all times standing with greats like Sam Cook, Bob Seager,Tarence Trent Darby, Marvin Gaye.
Brother's gonna work it out is still my jam 1973!!
Yea man!!! That's still my joint!!! Good message too!
I loved his music back in the day,rest in peace Mr Willie Hutch.
I choose you is one of my favorite songs. The Mack soundtrack is dope 🔥.
Just bought the Foxy Brown soundtrack on vinyl the other week. Also really, really good. 💯
The Mack Soundtrack is his best.
My uncle Wah Wah Watson was really good friends with Willie! They did a lot of work together in the same circle!!! He would be good for a story too!!!

Oh, wow, I had no idea Willie Hutch wrote for Motown, or did any recordings other than The Mack, to which I still listen to " I choose you", today.
Another great history lesson . Thanks for that
Hello WBPTV, My name is Gemi Taylor...I played guitar with Willie Hutch for many years...from 1973 to 1977...then 1980 to 1987...and Feb. 2005

I Want To Be Where You Are is my absolute favorite His version
Great video, as always. ❤
The GREAT Willie Hutch, is probably the MOST unsung of all the producer, arrangers, writers, and artists on the Motown label. His contributions to 60's and 70's r&b should rank among the most celebrated musical individuals that created a certain sound. I have been and will continue to be, a huge fan of Mr. Willie Mckenley Hutchison.
He Also Saing With A Group Called The The Pockets Called Come Go With Me,I Love That Song,If You HEAR It Now You Couldn't Sit Down.
Wow you stirred up a group and a song that was fire. Thank you 😊😊😊.
I Choose you, has got to be his best song ever. It's a jewel of the 70's R&B scene. Wonderful song.
I Can't wait to see it
Thank you for giving me an update on Willie Hutch. Could you do a video on Clifton Davis who starred in "That's my momma," and also wrote the hit song " Never Can Say Goodbye?"

He’s a legend that’s been under rated. Also he’s my dad’s cousin. I met him in 1976. I’m trying to reach out and contact some of his/our relatives
Just as I was about to type that ",Get Ready For The Get Down" was one of my favourite songs EVER, the song showed up on the screen...hee hee
"I Just Wanted To Make Her Happy" is also another favourite...I cannot forget "The Glow" either!!!
Would love to see a feature on Louisville Kentucky native Prince Phillip Mitchell
Great songwriter and performer
Who were the artists that he produced? I never heard of him. Wait. Are you talking about the producer for HI FI RECORDS?! AL GREEN, ANN PEEBLES, SYL JOHNSON, ETC??????? Well, no, that's Willie Mitchell!!!!!!😂😂 0:17

He was the second voice on Don Covay’s “I was checking out …”
@@michaells1207 I was just thinking about Don Convay! Underrated and unknown
@@MD-DLive Don Covay very much unsung
Phillip Michell is still with us
I can't believe you didn't include I chose you???? That was his most recognized and best song
Thank you much much. He lives through his music. May he RIP.
My favorite song was I Choose You from the Movie Yhe Mack and the theme from Foxy Brown.
I choose you was probably one his biggest hits and most sample song.
One of the best.
He was and still is one of my favorites I listen to him almost every day
Willie was definitely talented..
Willie Hutch is stil one of my favorite Artist, and underrated. I was exposed to his music when I was 14. I dug: Bother we Can Work it Out and I Chose You from Mack soundtrack. From Concert in Blues: Come on Home and his version of Stormy Weather, just to name a few. You can hear the piano intro of. "Come on Home" on Ghostface Killa featuring Ne Yo " Back Like That" track.
Its Brothers Gonna Work It Out...
@@joedoe6251 thanks for the correction

"Come on home" and "what you gonna do after the party" are two of Hutch’s most underrated songs, I was so shocked to find out someone else knew about those gems as well
So underrated THE Willie Hutch R.i.p
How about “The way we were”? From the sound track of the movie ‘The Mack’?
Willie Hutch became a household name after the great movie the mack , period son .no one ever knew of willie hutch before the mack not taking any thing away from the man but only being truthful.
His nephew is rapper Cold 187um from the group Above the Law.
Wow
Since you asked, my favorite Willie Hutch songs (in no particular order): "I'll Be There" (courtesy the Jacksons), "Brothers Gonna Work It Out" (nod to the big homie Dr. Dre), and "In And Out". Will give Keep On Jammin' a listen, thanks for the tip!
