Apparenly it was this brother's 50th birthday on Friday which just goes to show how time has really moved on.
I think he's largely overrated but that he's talented there is no doubt. Here's one of the better songs he's donated to the world.

Brazillian Rhyme
I would have been in my mid to late teens when I first heard a group called Take 6 primarily known for their acapella work, do a little interlude track called Badiyah. Unbeknownst to me at the time it was actually an Earth, Wind and Fire track and this is it.
Obviously not known as Badiyah there are a number of decent covers and versions of this song both by EWF and others, one particularly worth listening to is the Marcus Miller version.
I love finding out more about those songs that used to amaze me when I was younger and although simple in structure and cyclical in format I love this tune and the vocal interplay later on just sounds like a whole heap of fun. Enjoy it.

Brazilian Rhyme(Howard 2001)
I liked the track so much I was even convinced to give this Howard University Marching Band rendition a go. It was a worth it.

Brian Mcknight - Stevie Wonder Medley
The brother is gifted. Simple as that. Brian McKnight ain't so bad either.

Send one your love (Stevie Wonder)
This piano solo is brilliant of a song I have a whole lot of time from my main man Stevie Wonder.

D`Angelo - Cruisin
I enjoy this track. I know the sentiment of the lyric is referring to intimate relations, but the main gist of just cruising - taking time to do something is the buzz and the vibe I enjoy from this track.

Pixar dancing mouse - I believe in miracles
Yeah it's about time isn't it? Well this is a good one to get things back on track somewhat. Not as hilarious as the 'I Will Survive' one, but humourous none the less.
