The most soulful doctor is back! This month’s re-therapy comes in two variants, both promising cure for stress, anxiety and the blues.
Tucked inside 1981’s Breakin’ Away, the track brims with the kind of unfiltered groove only Jarreau could pull off: scat-scat shuffles, George Duke’s Fender Rhodes strut, Jerry Hey’s horn stabs, Steve Gadd’s heartbeat drums. It’s playful, high-spirited, a rooftop party of jazz, funk, and pop stitched together by a voice that could swing, sass, and soar in a single breath. Released as a single only in continental Europe, it became less a commercial calling card and more a cult anthem—one of those moments where Jarreau let the musicians run wild and reminded everyone that virtuosity could still sound like fun.
DoctorSoul says:
A fun Re – Therapy to play in your DJ set, for which I made an Intro and Outro (for easy mix-in and mix-out during your set.)
I also played a new Bass line and some new Drums as well; Bpm is 103.
Please be informed that I am also releasing today a 2nd production on Bandcamp also titled Roof Garden but with a DUB approach.
