Drummer John J.R. Robinson is the core of this tune. His unique fills were all crafted and was the basis of building this wonderful presentation of a first in history a singer and drummer focus in a pop mainstream setting. The air in this tune captured the power of John to a kind of a question and answer between drummer and singer . This is a wonderful guide for a vocalist to understand what a true seasoned drummer can bring to a performance.
A song that reminds me of driving the brightly lit canyons of Midtown Manhattan on a warm muggy summer night and thinking about what the night can do.
You can tell that this man was inspired by R&B music.....take a lesson from this.....If it wasn't for R&B there would be no Rock N Roll! Whether you like it or whether you don't like it--learn to love it! IT IS WAS IT IS!!!!!.......ROLL ON STEVE, ROLL ON!
@MissTerri1979 Love the name, MissTerri. It's night time again. :) You have a great taste in music. Santana - I'm Winning, Dead Kennedys.... this. Quite a variety.
@dullchime - it's not embarrassing @ all, i'm into the most extremest of music, but this is made by a Master, Steve Winwood IS and always be a TRUE Artist
@missNYCmodel you can't go wrong with any Steve Winwood album, an extreme talent!!! From his work with Traffic, Blind Faith, and all thru his solo years, he has produced some classic tunes

I was living in Hollywood when this song was playing- out from the crowded, noisy fussy hot building and into the cool night-
When in Roam...
It has that big urban sound somehow-
hey little girl, is your daddy home?

This song has that Commodores-Night Shift background jingle a little bit to it. This takes me back to the good 'ol 80's.
