- After 150,000 views of the original upload (1,2 million by now!!), I thought it was time to upload a copy with better sound. On the old upload Randy's voice unfortunately sounded a bit choppy, because of audio compression (inspite of directing folks over to this improved upload, they don't seem to leave the old one alone though!;). Anyhow; hope you will enjoy this improved upload even better (higher bit-rate and slightly increased volume). Peace.
Joe Sample Trio and Randy Crawford in one of the best live registrations of their iconic song.

Joe Sample flew away from Houston on Septermber 12, 2014. The general public primarily knew him from the track 'Streetlife' that he composed with Will Jennings and performed with The Crusaders.
Sample reached the age of 75, and had played the piano since he was five years old.
With some classmates Sample formed The Jazz Crusaders, which later became The Crusaders. In 1979 they released their worldwide hit Streetlife, with vocals by Randy Crawford.
During his fifty-year career Sample recorded 21 solo albums. He also wrote music for several other musicians and played alongside legends Miles Davis, Marvin Gaye, BB King and Joni Mitchell, to name but a few. Joe Sample became and will forever be legend of his own. May he rest in peace, God bless and comfort his loved ones.
Glorious Randy Crawford performance with Joe Sample doesn't get better than this, what a wonderful musical treasure🤩
Ms.Randy Crawford and Mr Joe Sample both are a treasure to the world!
VERY MUCH SO
Dream team!
Silk & satin the finest
@Lovejazz01. The Bass player and the drummer ain’t bad either.
Bloody awesome, the whole performance.
Tomorrow my father in law will be buried.This song will be played at his funeral
Same clear voice as in the eighties - brings tears to my eyes...
... to my eyes, come tears, too, if I listen to this clip incl. these great musicans 🥰❤🙋♂️🍀🌤🇩🇪
I saw Randy Crawford in NYC at the Beacon Theater in the 1990's. She walked onto the stage, put her pocketbook next to the microphone, belted out one of the best live performances I've ever seen, said thank you, then picked up her pocketbook and left the stage. She's ALL about the voice. Amazing stuff!
Every once in a great while, it all comes together perfectly. This was one of those very rare moments.
WOW.... Nearly 30' years later, and the Queen can still inspire a generation in her expression of artistry!x
50 years later.
I have still not heard a voice like hers.
This is why I like UA-cam - not for all the nonsense rubbish that makes up 90% of all vids on here but for truly stunning performances like this. Thanks so much for posting it.
I note that UA-cam "automatically generated" JOE'S home channel👍
I couldn't agree more or say it better.
The amount of talent on that stage is mind-blogging! Joe and Randy are the best specimen that humanity has ever produced. They are giants!
Randy Crawford is the ultimate vocalist in my opinion. She is unmatched when it comes to pure quality of tonality and vocal control. Her voice always takes me away to that special place. This is my favorite Randy Crawford performance, Street Life is a close 2nd, followed by Knockin on Heaven's Door. Thanks for the upload..
Me too❤
Amazing vocal from one of the best, nice arrangement. She is amazing
If Angels sing, Randy must be one of them.
Love the chemistry between them. She confirms it when she addresses him at the end of her performance. Top vid. Thx.
He is also the original craftsman of this masterpiece
Miss Randy Crawford...i`ll take my hat off.
So humble too! How often do you see vocalists show much respect and thank heartfully the musicians???
Joe Sample snatching those keys...love it man!...fan for 30 years of both of these artists. Makes my heart sing to listen.
Where does one start ? Simply astonishing, by all four,this comment is coming from Scotland,so we are not all into pipe bands and musical excuses.
Twas simply astounding,tears cheek wise still drying,all credit to all four,simply lovely.
Many thanks for the upload.

This is The music what my friends will hear when I´ll fly away.....Beautiful!
You can see that she's enjoying singing. This puts a smile on my face everyday of the week :)
This lady came into my life in with her secret combination in 1981 and she has always been with me .... she never flew away ....
Today 42 years later, when I need somebody to ease my worries, I use her secret combination ...... beautiful lady Randy Crawford
Real singer, real musician, real singing!!! Voice voice voice. Tru artistry. This is now gone. Please help bring back singing like this.
The way she pronounces english is very beautiful!
I can't remeber how long ago it is when I first bought her Secret Combination ......
but from that day on, every time I hear Randy sing, the chills are up my back .......
Her voice is an echo of my past and I still want to fly away from the broken heart I tried to leave behind then ..... I'm still haunted and even 40 years later it still makes me cry ........
after all these decades and she is as great as ever. Amazing.
When less is more - This made my day.
Yesss. Less = More
My mom's R.I.P favorite singer.
Randy & Joe together again!! Continue RIHP to Joe Sample!! 🎹
............"if you could travel back in time?" I'd visit the musicians who've brought us these lovely songs, to let them know of their legacies live on.
beautiful, give me shivers
A-mazing woman. Wonderful voice. I've been listening to her music growing up as a child and only now discovered the artist behind such great music. Wow!
The best. I'm listening to this after hearing that Prince passed away. Very sweet song.
Her voice is intact as always been. This is a heavenly song and I love Sample arrangements.
One of the BEST.*****
Randy Crawford still has that beautiful voice I first heard many, many years ago. Just beautiful.

So amazing... A friend shared this with me yesterday and was upset that i had forgotten this tune. Simply in awe of the vocal arrangement and how tight the trio are with Randy's vocals... Played it too many times!
Amazing
Her voice...just beautifully incredible...
I was born in mid 90's and my grand Ma, had such a collections of classic music. The likes of The Carpenters, ABBA, Bee gees , Frank Sinatra, Matt Monroe, Luis Armstrong, Randy Crawford, Ella Fitzgerald, Christopher Cross, Kenny Rankin and many more. I guess i'm still normal guy, if i chose and loved to listened to this type of songs and genres than the songs of today's 2016, because for me, Music of the past never dies, they just fade away but once listening to it again it gives back the feeling and joys that none of today's music will have an effects on me.
29 people have given this thumbs down and it’s a world I’m really not sure if I want to live in anymore
@griff8578 There are a lot more than 29 stupid and musically ignorant people in the world, not worth troubling your mind over morons.
Be content knowing that millions of people musically literate would rate the whole performance as brilliant and musically perfect.
Magicni glas Randy i carobni prsti Joe Sempla...bozanstveno!
Utter and complete genius ……
The. And sitting around her most beautiful voice is utter sublime,beautiful expression in the extreme….
This is a benchmark for any musician.
Cos this is fukin next level……

Remarkable. Just beautiful. Can't stop watching!
Wow. How have I never heard of her? At least I didn't think I was under a rock. Must've been.
WOW, love Randy Crawford .sing it girl I've followed you for years Great Music and feeling.... your one of our BEST !!

Voice of an Angel,the Band...come on.cool post,thankyou....

Ultimate songstress. What a voice. I remember seeing her getting out of limo to record.
Wonderful voice. It stood the test of time.
I cant stop re playing it. Its soo groovy so cool and refine and beautiful and inspiring. I love both Cindy and Joe. What a wonderful video. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for the improved audio. People will click the other from sheer volume of hits. Turn it off 'public' for a while.
Comping masterclass, and Randy Crawford deserves no less. What a singer, what a band, what a song, what a Joe Sample...
There hasn't been a more stellar pairing since the days of Ella and the Duke ... I'm so smitten with this performance I can hardly stand it !!! Thanks for uploading, SecondSpinMedia !!! Now THAT's talent in the truest sense of the word ... 💖
Too beautiful,sweet wonderful Randy and Joe exceptional pianist❤❤
She is so good! Love her music ☺
she sings it like she means it.we got to see this concert in Cosa Mesa Calif that year.! 🏝
Simply beautiful
I've loved your songs Forever
Proof there is a God. Absolutely Fantastic.
Amazing!
Her voice is beautiful
The only thing commensurate with Randy's otherworldly performance is Joe Sample's playing. Such sensitivity.
You Both Are My Idols. Forever.
So beautiful ❤❤❤
I feel like crying.....amazing
Goosebumps and nearly a tear in my eye....simply AMAZING!!
Just beautiful and true well sang
What a supportive player Joe is, NOT that Randy needs too much support but how wonderful to have this guy on side!!! Love it!
belíssima canção, interpretação inspirada. Lovely!!!
She is so beautiful and bless
This clip was not just a marvellous song but a marvellous experience!
@SecondSpinMedia, Thanks for the repost, this sound quality is outstanding. I enjoyed it today even more than before. After all these years this song still takes me to a special place and tingles my emotions. This song is one of my all time favorites. Randy Crawford is one of the most underrated and under promoted singers of our time. She and Joe Sample make majic together. Thanks again for the repost. Now I'm going to listen to more Randy Crawford (Street Life & Cajun Moon). Peace.
such a nice song to listen after an afternoon nap with my kids on a rainy Monday.
PURE BEAUTY !
