Being quite the audiophile enthusiast years ago, "The Nightfly" was my go to standard when evaluating new equipment. It is, in every sense a Sonic tour de force and just blew me away when it was released. This is an absolute incredible cover. I understand Donald Fagan was an absolute perfectionist in the Studio and would spare nothing in post production to get every detail in place. That you guys nailed this while all isolated and then bring it all together speaks volumes of your craftsmanship. Thank you for sharing.

Yeah right! Umm, yeah, but maybe only 17,000 times or so. I grew up in the 80’s with a cool dad who exposed me to great music (thanks Dad!) of all genres. Cool dad or not, you couldn’t make it through the 80’ s without hearing this classic tune. I’m not sure who hasn’t heard this tune really, I’m actually not even sure what the hell you’re talking about. Just an FYI, this cover has just been picked up by at least one media outlet that did a story on this exact video - calling the cover ‘spot on’ - so I’m not alone in my assessment of this as top shelf.
