Something I didnt know was Marcy Levy and Marcella Detroit are the same person, Marcella Detroit of Shakesspeares Sister fame who had hits in the 1980s/90s!
It was Marcy Levy singing back up vocals.Her passionate testifying on this as well as her sparkling harmonies on the Don Williams-influenced "Promises" made up for fellow back-up singer Yvonne Elliman`s departure following SLOWHAND`s release.
I wish there was a live performance of this tune; It would've rocked!

I've always loved this song.
It's do relaxing and great.
Although it's too bad no one has footage of him playing it live.
Does anyone know where it can be seen?
It's been a while since he played it in concert.

This is just great. 5 stars and straight to my faves. IMO, this is one of his best(and sadly, most overlooked) gems. Thanks for sharing.
