We Got a Good Thing Going is the thirteenth album led by the saxophonist Hank Crawford and his second release on the Kudu label.[1]

Reception

AllMusic awarded the album 4 stars stating, "Of Hank Crawford's somewhat erratic output for Kudu during 1971-78, this is the album to get. The Don Sebesky arrangements for strings and an oversized rhythm section fit Crawford's soulful style well and the altoist performs consistently strong material that was also commercially successful".
