[smoothjazz631]

u cant get no better from sandborn...i mean u can but this is great!

[ernestlmorellsr]

Oh Yea! I have this on Cassette but it's good that I find it here...back in da dazz when my head use ta be bad as any head could be... it was James -n-Sanborn.

[emmettk]

Saw David Sanborn (with Joey DeFrancesco) at a jazz club 2 months ago. David was a little under the weather, but still the set was great. Never having seen him live before, I wondered if he would play my favorite- this. Even though Marcus Miller's bass was missed, I wasn't disappointed.

[Osjov]

Mas puto.

[sergiou66]

este tema ja devia ser Hino oficial da nossa cidade, que completou mais um ano d vida ha dias.. alguem ja pensou em contactar o bob e o marcus miller? tsc...

[asworseas]

I really love this tune. Just for your information, here you'll find live vid that Dave and Bob playing Maputo on stage.

I love it too. How about you?

[onlygaleo]

[michel0512]

re coolcool thumbs up ..laura

[wonderglory]

In the mid-to-late 1980s, ABC TV had primetime musical promos. This song was the third and last of them. I don't know what the first song was. But I do know, "Communion (Instrumental)," by Swing Out Sister was the second one.

[texastee100]

my first love of jazz and his cd back in the 80's

[ZeeMee4U]

This is dedicated to my brother in law James Ankum. He is the first person to turn me on to Jazz and this was the song that sold me. RIP bro in law!!

[jalabi99]

I remember when the Christian Science Monitor first started their shortwave radio station (I was stationed overseas at the time) and at the end of one particular DJ's shift he would play this but never tell us who did it. One day he said, "People have been writing to ask what this song is..." and once I found out who did it, I rushed out to buy DOUBLE VISION. What fantastic memories every time I play this track/album!

[glitterapolis]

Very nice song. It's one of David Sandborn's best songs.

[n2motocross]

Nice,.. very etheral.

[bonham100]

I love this song... very inspiring. This is what smooth jazz is all about.

[jamesjwalsh]

Hello boswell69. Looking for a new age/jazz song from the 1980's. I believe the name of it is "Mister Inspector" or something similar. Ever heard of it? Thanks.

Jim Walsh

[TheBerney47]

This artist manages to discover within it's listeners a soulful residence unknown to the listener unless he hears this soulful beat with his heart. Great groove and smooth silky vibe that just captures the essence of jazz. in a profound manner.

[MrMaxxxo]

yes thank you very much ! so cool !

[jessicascorpio1]

Ohhhh...YES!! :)

[UnitedCorpOfAmerica]

An all time hit. If this doesn't inspire feelings nothing will.

[mikesloan717]

If there was a definitive song to describe smooth jazz. This will be that definitive song.

[komunista94]

Always reminds me of the place where I grew up when my father used to play this on late afternoons after he comes home from work. Excellent music.

[synthiamiller]

This song is soooo pretty!! It would be nice to see this with some sunset pictures on a beach.

[Jalreal]

Morning rain?

I hope you feel me, Do you?

[MrTheguy1111]

Excellence......

[shortyybiggavelii]

<3. listen to this and other smooth jazz while doing homework :)

[MadMaddy1200]

@shortyybiggavelii Me too! It helps you stay chill when you should be stressing ;)

[kalerka]

a classic masterpiece...

[CorreggiosMagdalena]

This is really nice, excellent duo of David Sanborn and Bob James.

[RosettaRubaiyat]

this gives me the sense memory of driving in late October of 1986 under a full Hunters moon and seeing the undulating frosted rows of corn sparkle as they waited for harvest.

I collected many Bob James albums in the '70's and '90's. All of the compositions are such that you can listen over and over and over ...and still hear something new - a nuance, an emotion, an expression that would make the song new again.

[guiltyspark342]

omg im gonna go transcribe the bass right now...

[Gordita898]

this a REALY GOOD SONG

[Gordita898]

this song is cool

[Gordita898]

This is good music.

[SaberMuslim]

This tune, with Sanborn is now considered a classic. It STILL gets airplay over 20 years after its original release. It is a standard for any station that considers itself "jazz radio."

[MrNENECHERRY]

LO MEJOR EN JAZZ CONTEMPORANEO

[tito1981able]

Great song..I kept practicing and playin my sax until I learned this tune..WOW! SMOOTH JAZZ!

[gmholt2008]

this song must be what heavens feels like

[6superb9]

One of the greatest jazz duos on earth...buy this album if you like this song! Put on your headphones and drift away.......

[MrDavidswayze]

When I first heard this it was 20 years ago it was playing during a shortwave radio frequency which I have forgotten what it was it took me 20 years to find out what the song was in which I do love this song and and I will play it over and over

[MsMaestro00]

TAKES ME BACK!!!!!!!!!!

[raZOnu27]

super!!!!!

[tito1981able]

Love it!

[KOMET2006]

SIMPLY SUBLIME.

[kingbrotherman]

Great groove....deep & soulful. Just like I like it. It has a depth that a lot of this so called smooth jazz just doesnt have these days....

[dal4018]

@kingbrotherman Yes a excellent duo

[dal4018]

@kingbrotherman Yes a excellent duo and it doesn't hurt to have a great songwriter like Marcus Miller playing his material

[cazman1954]

Excellent

[MrTonedeff]

what an album! withsuperb backup from steve gadd,drums,paul jackson jr guitar,marcus miller bass,paulinho da costa,percussion! quality stuff ,sanborn and bob james just incredible!!

[evettemcmillan1]

this is deep wonderful sound you have to be there to understand

[evettemcmillan1]

this is deep wonderful sound

[horse54a]

It is amazing to read everyones comments, they straight from the heart and and lets me know that music is what it is to each and everyone us but it is always great by artists who prove by what they do that aint about the money tho it helps, its about creating and enjoying what they do. We get to hear the results of the effort.

[sduduzo11]

reminds me of my childhood days when my father play this song ova nova again back when i didnt understand but now that ive cum to maturity i do

[komunista94]

@sduduzo11 damn. so did i. my father used to play this when i was a kid and i couldn't care less about it then. now when i hear this i always think of the old house i grew up in and the smell of the woods when it just finished raining or during late afternoons when he usually played this LP.

[thenewageriseth]

Great song! One of the classics. =]

[glowrella]

so sweet...



[1altadena]

So So smooth..

[SmoothMusicMexico]

Good classic!

[samgglass]

this is music.. lovin it

[goldandchrome]

had sex to this too many times

two amazing musicians

[boicsunla05]

@goldandchrome Well I guess you had what it took to get it. I guess the mood was right, you were a good man, and the woman(en) was into you so much, that she (they) had to give it up. Congratulations.

[MoosicandCritters]

I've always thought this would be a great song for a wedding on the beach!

[iluvyouwyatt]

reminds me of driving by the beach at night with the windows down, i used to listen to this all the time then

[wonderglory]

I remember a portion of this song was used as one of three ABC TV musical promos sometime back in the mid-to-late 1980s.

[avanbens]

I love it too.
