Moments Worth Listening For

The crisp, biting guitar intro of Nadine that immediately signals a departure from his smoother 80s work.

The swampy, atmospheric piano and guitar interplay on Havana Moon that feels like a humid night in the Caribbean.

The effortless vocal phrasing on the title track where Benson bridges the gap between jazz crooner and R&B shouter.
