Thanks to Denver station KUVO for playing a strong cover this morning. L.T.D. crafted an enduring groove in the 1977 hit, "(Every Time I Turn Around) Back In Love Again." In his version, Phil Upchurch showed how well the tune works as an instrumental. Upchurch plays the lead vocal part on guitar at a slightly slower tempo and retains all the funk of L.T.D.'s original. The interplay between piano and guitar substitutes effectively for vocals and fits into a smooth jazz or traditional jazz playlist equally well.
Upchurch's reworking is appropriate for Valentine's Day or any day when you feel on top of the world.
