he sound a bit like christopher cross

It is amazing how many talented musicians participated in this LP. I make a short list here:

Jay Gruska, Robbie Buchanan, Michael Landau --> Maxus, 1981 produced by Michael Omartian.

Steve Lukather, Joseph Williams --> TOTO.

David Garfield collaborated many times with TOTO members; He produced a tribute to Jeff Porcaro

Jerry Hey, Larry Williams --> Seawind (late 70s); with Kim Hutchcroft, they became the "offcial" horn section of AOR music.

Richard Page, Steve George --> Mr. Mister

ETC.

@Pryncenyck WTF? Ever heard of the band Toto? Joseph Williams was their lead singer 86-88.

1982 was such a great year for AOR !!!

[trenzz999]

Yes, it´s true his voice was so young and their evolution is much more incredible on TOTO, it´s like if he has a thunderbolt on his vocal chords....Wao!

[Pryncenyck]

U have amazing taste in westcoast,love this track never heard of this guy before.Its a shame that most of these artist's never got worldwide mainstream attention they are just as talented vocally as the rest of the artist's coming out of the 80s.
