ICONIC song and original video

[@anexpertateverything4816]

One of those songs that repeats chorus at end and you want it to keep going

[@aimeebella1]

This was never my favorite by them but it is great live and the bass line and sax are classic. I appreciate it more now than I did back in the 80’s and I just saw them live in Atlanta in June playing this.

In a 2015 Bass Player mag interview, JT cited James Jamerson, Paul McCartney, and George Murray (Bowie) - along with Bernard Edwards - as his influences.

One of the John Taylor’s mentors was Bernard Edwards from Chic.

[@lobotomy007]

yes, there's jamerson but i mostly hear bernie edwards and george murray influences in john taylor's playing

John Taylor is one of the best bassists ever.
