Flesh and Bone

Richard Marx

A soulful pivot toward R&B-tinged adult contemporary. Warm, unhurried, and anchored by that unmistakable raspy vocal delivery.

Find on Amazon

The one where the 80s rock king finds his soul in a late-night R&B groove.

A sophisticated and soulful collection of late-night reflections that prioritizes atmosphere over anthems.

Everyday Of Your Life (Richard Solo)
Moments Worth Waiting For
The soulful shift in vocal delivery on track 1, where the usual rock rasp adopts a smoother R&B phrasing.
The stripped-back intimacy of the solo version of Everyday Of Your Life, highlighting the raw grain of the vocal.
The way the percussion settles into a mid-tempo groove on Fool's Game, bridging the gap between 80s rock and 90s soul.
