Timothy Wilson's self-titled 1978 album, released on H&L Records, is a Funk/Soul record that incorporates elements of Disco. It features a blend of upbeat, dance-oriented tracks and soulful ballads. The album was Wilson's only full-length LP release during his career.
The album showcases Wilson's unique and soulful voice over arrangements that reflect the late 1970s' R&B and disco sound. The music features instrumentation common to the era, including electric piano, synthesizer, percussion, bass, guitar, and drums.
The production has a clean, professional feel, with recording taking place at H&L Sound Studios in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey. Producers Herschel Dwellingham and Landy McNeal handled the production and arrangements.
While Timothy Wilson had several singles released throughout the 1960s, including the minor hit "Baby Baby Please" on the Buddah label, his 1978 album did not achieve major commercial success. However, the album has gained a following among collectors of R&B, soul, and disco music, with some tracks, particularly "Sugarland Express," becoming desirable finds in the collector's market.
