    That's really cool that they have a soundtrack for the original Fat Albert show. The guy who sang the songs from the show and who's pictured on the back of the album cover is Mike Gray. He was a Broadway actor who sang gospel music and other stuff, and he did a great job of singing the songs from the show. Sadly, he passed away from a heart attack in 1988. Considering how great his singing was was, he should have done a whole lot more. RIP Mike Gray...
