sounds like phil collins a bit and the style of song is collins IMO.not criticising used to own the record in 85 whenit was released .DMX programmed drums de rigeur at the time!!

the great luis conte has played with toto and jackson browne just to name 2. i wish my congas sounded like his. i have the meinl headliners their great but just sound alien compared to luis'. hey i have fun with them and thats the main thing!!

@StevesWifeCharlo are you charlotte crossley ? if you are you must have some great stories about the making of this album with all the great musicians and singers on board! steve lukather is doing his own book about his career workiing with boz and all the toto stuff maybe you should honey!!!

great sound solizbury i wish my cd was this quality! this album needs remastering along with many other 80's albums! love the songs with green,s unique voice and superb musicians inc paul jackson jr guitar,steve ferrone drums,robbie buchanan keyboards,plus backing vocals BJ nelson,tawatha agee an...

funky track with the excellent marcus miller on bass plus steve ferrone drums,paul jackson jnr rhythm guitar love it!!!

love this track scritti and marcus miller slammin the bass funky!!!

@Ozone04p yes i know steve gadd,anthony jackson ,mike brecker,james ingram,david t walker the list is impressive as it is long.cheers!

@WimBlommaert i agree totolly! penned by david paich and james newton howard with bass supremo nathan east ,steve porcaro and paich on synths and keyboards and of course the brilliant jeffrey porcaro on drums!! strings arranged by james newton howard and marty paich ,and lenny castro on percussio...

written by trevor veitch and greg mathieson ( toni basil micky) superb solo by jay graydon a nice steady programmed groove with jerry hey horns on board love it !!!

a watershed album for al my first exposure to him in 83' on sunday night radio 1 at the time with the great tommy vance playing the first cut mornin' .after he played it he mentioned it was produced by jay graydon so i got the album that week after work and have loved it ever since! jeff porcaro ...

woderful tune by bacharach,bayer sager,allen and cross.with sax solo by ernie watts .the drums are just sublime from the much missed jeff porcaro what a smooth groove! steve lukather on rhythm guitar and david hungate on bass.members of toto at the time of recording obviously!!!

@ssj5657 it was either producer micheal omartian or rob meurer who were on chris,s first two albums as you say gorgeous playing. omartian i would say is the pianist he is a great player he plays lovely piano on aja by steely dan and has perfect pitch!!

this is the album track featuring jeff porcaro drums,steve lukather guitar solo and rhythm,lenny castro percussion with mike mcdonald back up vocals! a great track produced by micheal omartian .lukathers solo is wonderful influenced by larry carlton and jay graydon.toto won six grammies in this y...

such a quality album ,produced by micheal omartian( steely dan,boz scaggs many sessions as pianist and keyboard player) with the excellent jay graydon solo guitar! 1979 and still sounds so good! a unique voice like mike mcdonald and james ingram you,re not asking who is this like todays generic r...

makes me wanna dance around the room even at fifty, white and no rhythm i wanna get down. all it needs is the great jimmy saville talking about stealing points off listeners for getting song titles wrong.these were the days !! goodness gracious ladies and gentlemen !!

now then now then as it happens guys and girls the one and only ramsey lewis .jimmy saville god bless him what a character.i,m sure he used this on his pick of the pops countdown as well as the in crowd.this groove is as infectious as the herbie hancock classic cantaloupe island.i love it!!

@ShallahJupiter7XL ok thanks for that,it,,s quality production so any one of the great producers i mentioned could be the one! no doubt rod temperton is an incredible talent and has the magic touch which is sadly lacking in todays music scene i just turn on the oldies station! give me the night i...

reminiscent of earth wind and fire kinda like boogie wonderland! graydon is a super player along with luke,porcaro,foster,champlin and jerry hey you expect nothing less! i like it ,it,s feel good and who does,nt like to hear real musicians at work!

married to richard marx and was in the 80's group animotion! this song sounds like a bill champlin or jay graydon composition which is no bad thing! she is pleasing on the eye also!!

@TcSunde33 yes of course,i just remember toto playing on the album and their contribution! torture and wait are superb tunes with toto and jerry hey! state of shock is a cool jam too! one more chance is very tranquil and is similar to human nature! a worthy purchase for jackson fans!

this tune features larry carlton and joe walsh on guitars,jeff porcaro on drums,david paich and greg phillinganes on synths and keyboards! cosidering the talent on the album and the production from gary katz and ray parker jr you,d think it would be a massive success! sadly it was not! i love it ...

@MrTonedeff girls features yogi horton on drums from luther vandross band who sadly committed suicide,he felt he was in luther,s shadow i read somewhere! shame he was a great player.also on here is jeff mironov and eric gale on guitars who have played for steely dan,paul simon.

a haunting tune from a sadly underrated album! written by donald fagen and produced by gary katz steely dan as already mentioned by Disco boy 1969! jeff porcaro on drums from toto! synths are played by fagen and i think toto david paich also plays keyboards if memory serves! diana sultry as alway...

@gerbotoryev i agree totolly( see what i did?) also on board are david paich,steve porcaro,jeff porcaro and lenny castro( toto percussionist on most of their releases!) always a top tune from an album that was released when thriller was still riding high,which is probably why it was,nt recieved v...

@54gravi well i did,nt know he played for lou ,he sure sounds similar to him! he has played for many top acts so it,s no surprise he did session for the voice of foreigner! in 1990 he sessioned on micheal bolton soul provider ,i think on two tracks! like lukather he does so many rhythm dates wher...

written by david paich from toto and jackie jackson,a standout cut that also features jeff porcaro,drums,steve lukather guitars,david paich, keyboards and steve porcaro synths and programming! not forgetting longtime toto percussionist the excellent lenny castro just dig those congas! as mentione...

@DYNAMITEAMBITION well in the real world guys speak like this when eyeing up women.it,s just physical attraction,you don,t know the person because you have,nt spoken to them so you have no idea what their intellect is or if they have a nice personality! lust is the initial feeling ask most guys a...

escovedo sorry for the mis spelling i forgot the c

thats what i loved about the 70's and 80's you see names of players and producers and you wonder who they are ,then they catch a break and finally get the attention they deserve! i own two albums that feature kashif and they are whitney houston debut album and george benson,s in your eyes! the re...

i first saw kadhif,s name on george benson,s in your eyes album! inside love ( so personal) which he wrote is awesome! i remember paul gambaccini playing one of his songs on the radio mid 80's .he is one of the backroom boys behind major acts who gets over looked ,sadly like so many in the indust...

kashif in full control ,he wrote it ,played on it and produced it. a clever guy like nile rogers,quincy jones and narad micheal walden! i love the backing vocals from B J nelson,tawatha agee and lilo thomas so soulful! his tune thinking about you on whitney,s debut is also excellent!
