BTW, this is the pre-credit sequence of RP's ambitious, nearly hour-long "Ridin' High" video, released just after the CD, in late 1992. The fact that he chooses to make 'ARR. CLARE FISCHER' the 1st image we see (Fischer having arranged this & the majority of RH) reveals not only CF's centrality 2 this project, but the esteem in which he was held in the 70s, 80s, & 90s by many of R&B's's more harmonically advanced practitioners - e.g. RP, Prince, Chaka, Al Jarreau, the various DeBarges et al.
about 20 years ago i had the chance of assembling a set-up based on:
- LINN (CD-Player+PreAmp)
- 2 Burmester amplifiers in single-channel configuration (85.000,- DM each)
- 2 Audiostatic electrostatic loudspeakers (19.600,- DM each)
in a building made of stone, steel adn glas. no concrete, no wallpaper, no drawall...nothing but stone, steel and glas.

after installing the whole set-up i searched for cd's to test drive it.
i found :
1. Sir Mix-A-Lot : The boss is back
2. Roxette : Cinammon street
3. Vaya Con Dios : Listen
4. the one you are listening to.

i love roxette and vaya con dios. and sir mix-a-lot was wonderfull for demonstating the dynamic of the electrostatics at lower frequencies...
but Robert Palmer stunned the whole audience. (me included)
R.I.P. ;(

Wow, I had never heard this song before. I`ve always loved his jazzy performances... "Witchcraft", "Love is the Tender Trap", "Not a Word"...
