Amen to Pali on thist one. I've dug Narada's work more & more as the years have gone by...as far as diverisity goes. He has a real gift for melody & groove. Loved the "Confidence" album...good times. Funk Is It's Own Reward | |

"I Shoulda Loved Ya" is his best. Andy is a four letter word. | |

That's right, you played with Gomez didn't you? I loved his playing on stuff by Narada, and those Stanley Clarke albums... ... " I've got six things on my mind --you're no longer one of them." - Paddy McAloon, Prefab Sprout | |

That's my favorite jam by him  My favorite Narada uptempo jam is "I Don't Want Nobody Else" (To Dance With You)"[1979]--his percussion breakdown in the middle is killin'!!!

That's right, you played with Gomez didn't you? ... During the mid 80s he came by the studio and played on a track called Tough Guys from a Marcus album we were working on that never got released. He met Ray in France when Marcus was there during the filming of Under The Cherry Moon. At the time, Marcus going out with Marie France who was the costume designer on the film (and Purple Rain). Great player. tA Tribal Disorder
