Inside MusiCast 'Pick Of The Day': “Is It You”, by Lee Ritenour. Selected by Eddy Cabello
Lee Ritenour released "RIT" back in 1981. This was a huge record for Ritenour, and was written by co-written by Ritenour, and our good friends Bill Champlin and Eric Tagg, who sang lead vocals on this great track, as you well know. Holding it all together is Abe Laboriel. Laboriel knows how and when to let a track breathe. He mentions this in our interview, as you heard...to keep the groove baselines simple and deliver clarity to the track. This requires lots of experience and taste.
