Love this track. Have not heard of it and glad it has been posted on You Tube by a great fan of the Great Bob James. Musicians like him are stars in my view.
I remember being stationed in the middle of the Atlantic (Azores) in 1980, and wondering what my friends were doing back in the world? Now I wonder what my friends on "The Rock", are doing now.
Composed By - Jeff Schoen , Kash Monet , Neil Jason Keys - Bob James Bass - Neil Jason Acoustic Guitar - Richie Resnicoff Electric Guitar - Hiram Bullock Drums - Idris Muhammad Percussion - Jimmy Maelen Background Vocals: Bob James , Hiram Bullock , Jeff Schoen , Patti Austin
Just addding to the interesting info on the tune, The lead singer on the album (Lucky Seven) version was Neil Jason, who also played Bass on the tune.
i have the orginial album . have to dig for it. i heard it when it first cam eout on the radio back when i was growing up in nyc on the former jazz station wrvr 106.7fm .you can goolge the history on that former radio station.on most of bob james's early albums from the 70's 2 of the backup singers are luther vandross and patti austin
The original recording of this song was sang by my father. They took it and re did it and never got anything for it. when the album was first released singer was unknown. I have the album and cassette. Crazy.
We've been looking for this bob james' beautiful song piece for quite a long time now. Thanks for your musical taste. Share us more of your classy collections.
