despite becoming the first roberta flack album since "quiet fire" (1971) to not yield a top 40 hit, "...featuring donny hathaway" provided flack with a substantial commercial comeback following the underperformance of her precedent 1978 self-titled album, with "...featuring donny hathaway" becoming a certified gold album. also both the duets on "...featuring donny hathaway" reached the r&b chart top ten peaking at #8, with "back together again" reaching #3 in the uk: "back together again" had been written by james mtume and reggie lucas, members of flack's back-up band who had previously written the 1978 flack/ hathaway hit "the closer i get to you", while "you are my heaven" was a stevie wonder co-write (with album producer eric mercury). wonder also contributed the song "don't make me wait too long", providing the track's whispered rap: issued as a third single "don't make me wait..." was not a major mainstream hit, but issued on a 12" single with "back together again" afforded flack her first disco chart hit single with a #6 peak.
