by Stephen Thomas ErlewineDuring the 70s, Dan Hartman was a member of the Edgar Winter Group, as well as being in Johnny Winters band for a time. Hartman was also a session musician that supported artists as diverse as Ian Hunter, Stevie Wonder, Todd Rundgren, and Ronnie Montrose. After releasing one undistinguished solo pop/rock album in 1976, he hit the big time with the fine disco album, Instant Replay. Its follow-up, Relight My Fire, wasnt as successful and Hartman retreated to the studio, producing .38 Special, the Average White Band, and James Brown; he was behind the board for Browns comeback hit, Living in America, in 1986. Hartman had one more hit in 1985 with the pop-soul I Can Dream About You. Again, his follow-ups werent successful and he returned to producing. He was preparing a new album at the time of his death in March of 1994.
