@Aggromerchant Oh yeah - love that version and the synth lead Lyle plays on that version, quite a bit. You can totally hear the warmth of that Oberheim.

The theme to The Way Up goes back to at least 1978.

Naná and Pedro together. By the spring of 83, Vasconcelos had left the PMG. His departure spelled an end to that golden era between 1981 and 1983; the Group toured often then -one could see them in Massachusetts as often as five times a year with only a little effort - and seemed to stretch the calendar years out.

@soultaker1083 oops, I mean clip 4 of 11. And Mirror of the Heart, I am mistaken - it is in the middle of Lyle Mays. Clip 3 sounds very familiar; maybe it's done on the "Street Dreams" or "Fictionary" album (the latter of which I don't have).
It's interesting how far back some of these compositions go! "Close to Home" from the Lyle Mays album actually dates from the 1970s!

@soultaker1083 I'm sure that piece is Mirror of the Heart. It's available as the ending piece on Lyle Mays' first album (Lyle Mays). SLINK (starting at clip 3 of 11) is also on that album. I highly recommend buying it too.
