Moments Worth Listening For
The breezy, bossa nova-inspired instrumental title track that opens the album with unexpected lightness.
The gospel-tinged backing vocals that elevate the chorus of 'I Ain't Gonna Stand for It'.
The clean, melodic guitar solo on 'Believe in Life' that feels like a warm embrace.
The way Steve Gadd's precise, pocket-heavy drumming anchors the groove of 'Travelin' Light'.
