About The Record:

In the Night-Time, by the American bassist and vocalist, showcases his signature blend of funk, soul, and R&B. The album, recorded at Sigma Sound Studios in Philadelphia, features Henderson's dynamic bass playing and rich vocals, complemented by contributions from notable musicians like Ray Parker Jr. and backing vocalists Barbara Ingram, Evette Benton, and Carla L. Benson. It stands out as Henderson's best-selling solo work, reflecting his transition from a sideman for artists like Miles Davis and Stevie Wonder to a prominent solo artist in the late 1970s R&B scene. The hit single Take Me I'm Yours, featuring Rena Scott, reached No. 3 on the Billboard R&B singles chart, marking a significant milestone in Henderson's career. Other notable tracks like In the Night-Time and Whisper in My Ear also contributed to the album's acclaim, cementing Henderson's influence in funk and soul music.
