Moments Worth Listening For

The effortless transition from the vocal hook into a fluid, chromatic guitar solo on track 1.

The deep, pocket-heavy bass groove provided by Marcus Miller that anchors the expansive track 11.

The way the arrangement swells with gospel-tinged warmth during the climax of track 5.
