Please don't shoot me down if there is a 'For You' album review written in 1978, I've searched for a bit and just can't seem to find one. I was just interested in the initial reaction from reviewers to Warner Brothers promoting this young guy. Anyone who can point me in the right direction would be a true star.

Yep, Robert Christgau wrote this about "For You" in The Village Voice, giving it a B- score.

For You [Warner Bros., 1978]
Like most in-studio one-man bands, the nineteen-year-old kid who pieced this disco-rock-pop-funk concoction together has a weakness for the programmatic--lots of chops, not much challenge. But I like "Baby," about making one, and "Soft and Wet," ditto only he doesn't know it yet. And his falsetto beats Stevie Wonder's, not to mention Emitt Rhodes's. B-

I remember reading that review. Seeing as how Stevie Wonder isn't known for falsetto and the fact that almost no one knows about Emitt Rhodes to this day, that reviewer must have been a complete weenie.

I'm sure there must have been more reviews, I wish someone'd have copies but they're most lilkely lost forever
