One of my favorite YJ tracks from Shades, 1986...hard to believe that was 39 years ago when I first heard it on 94Q's Jazz Flavours in Atlanta, GA. Takes me back to a great time for contemporary jazz/funk, soul and fusion music...when it was a new sound and taking off on the airwaves back then. Long before corporate radio conformity took over, and modern jazz artists had a fresh palette, to create such brilliant, intricate and evocative pieces such as this one. Every time I listen to this song, it never fails to make me feel nostalgic yet optimistic at the same time. May all of you listeners have a great 2025!
