Howard Johnson is working on a new album 'The Orange Album' and will be released this summer in August 2012. I've heard some samples of it and it looks very promising. The tracks i've heard are 'Keep It Coming' and 'Girl Talk' and are definitive in the 'Old School' style.
I asked Howard if his new album is completely in this format. His reaction was: want to keep fans from back in the day
I don't think I'd be well accepted if I tried to give my fans a Chris Brown type retro track, the new album will be good.
In the early till mid eighties Howard released three albums. The first album
Howard Johnson released was 'Keepin' Love New' The other two albums that Howard Johnson recorded are 'Doin' It My Way', 'Vision'. All three albums are released on A&M Records.
