"Rhythm Of The Street" by Patti Austin (1984)

One of my favorite Patti Austin songs.I always felt that this song should have been a major hit single for Patti.The video is great,with some really funny scenes.Patti is really playing the "diva" role,lol.

This is from my favorite Patti Austin album! I still listen to that CD like it was just released. biggrin I even repurchased the recent Japan CD reissue since it was remastered and it does sound better than the original German pressing that I had from years ago.

this song has a rock/pop feel to it.....very similiar to some of the tracks on Aretha's Who's Foolin' Who album,which was also produced by Narada Michael Walden a year later.

"Rhythm Of The Street" sounds like a movie theme song.....I can imagine it being in one of those 80s dance movies like 'Footloose' or even 'Beat Street'
