Moments Worth Listening For
The clinical precision of the drum snap on Little Sister that introduced the world to digital recording.
Chaka Khan's powerhouse vocal interplay with Cooder's understated delivery on Don't Mess Up a Good Thing.
The shimmering, almost glass-like slide guitar solo on the instrumental-leaning I Think It's Going to Work Out Fine.
