[@jasonbrus88]

a 1986 Down Beat issue voted Jordan as new guitarist of Year. a long way from 1982 when Jordan stood at the mall corner near Princeton where he went to school (Princeton U, Class of 1981), playing his guitar, earning pocket money. by 1986, he got his first LP contract with then Blue Note label which specializes in high quality jazz........wow, 22 yrs ago...

[@aliyourbrother1]

he always did an amazingly beautiful Lady In My Life, ever since 1985.

[@dwightlove3704]

This is better than the original version of Michael Jackson!!!!!!!

[@billneath3273]

It's a wonderful unique, original style Stanley Jordan has and what a sound he produces from that guitar. I was lucky enough to see him perform live in a solo concert at the Queens Hall in Edinburgh, Scotland UK going back some years ago.

[@andyinsdca]

The supporting band is amazing on this track. Totally into it, doing amazing work supporting Stanley.

[@rebeccalandry53]

Oh yes. My husband really loved playing his music I can see why. Absolutely amazing talent

[@siesta312]

There'll be no darkness tonight Lady our love will shine Lighting the night Just put your trust in my heart And meet me in paradise Now is the time girl You're every wonder in this world to me A treasure time won't steal away So listen to my heart Lay your body close to mine Let me fill you with my dreams I can make you feel alright And baby through the years Gonna love you more each day So I promise you tonight That you'll always be the lady in my life Lay back in my tenderness Let's make this a night we won't forget Girl, I need your sweet caress Reach out to a fantasy Two hearts in the beat of ecstasy Come to me, girl And I will keep you warm Through the shadows of the night Let me touch you with my love I can make you feel so right And baby through the years Even when we're old and gray I will love you more each day 'Cause you will always be the lady in my life Stay with me I want you to stay with me

[@fredfungalspore]

Had the privilege to see Stan doing a solo act in Bangkok .He played the guitar and piano at the same time blew me away he did not say much that night he let his fingers do the talking ....A night to remember thx Stanley JJJJJJJJJ

[@DunhillHilton]

One of the greatest songs of all time. Thank you.

[@Harveycartoonlvr11]

And to think, this very talented young MAN was once playing on the streets of Manhattan, with his Guitar Case open for change from listeners and passerby...how very blessed he really is! Love this song! :)

Its been 45 years and I'm still waiting for him to let go.

Fera da guitarra 🎸 Stanley Jordan é uns dos melhores do mundo 🌍

[@MrPhotoDan]

I first heard him play this on a Blue Note cassette tape (remember those?) called Stanley Jordan Magic Touch. It is a couple of minutes shorter, but just as good. I also had the chance to see him play at UC Irvine in California many years ago. He is a magician on the guitar.

[@c.g.vonhagenstein7576]

I still have this cassette tape, as well as his follow up Flying Home. Man...the nostalgia...

[@SaucyDoezIt]

Just came across this looking for a bass cover but I stayed bc this is amazing👏

[@WimU2b]

This bassline kept coming up in my mind for years and years, but i couldn't remember the name of the song. Until now. Listen to the studio version, it's so relaxed and cool...

[@xafiermichaels5413]

That was a great job of bass backup; he holds a nice tight groove all the way through the tune from beginning to end. This is a great song for training bass players to lay in the pocket and hold a groove.

[@Oughut88]

Simply exquisite. Michael Jackson would have adored this. An extraordinary performance.

Bernard Wright on the keys. Wright was touring at 13 years of age, played with Tom Browne (Funkin' For Jamaica) at 16, and had an album released when he was 17. Anyone remember "Just Chillin' Out"?

[@divingchicago]

Eric B.. As a quasi pianist, Bernard kills it!

[@msvonnii6288]

Yes I remember. We used to party together whenever they came in town. Saw Tom a few years ago, not since moving down south though. Bernard was writing/performing with other artists & I have not heard from him or seen him in over 20 years now.

Keyboard solo, just time taken away from us hearing Stanley play. I caught Jordan in LA opening for Larry Carlton back in the day, as me and my guitar buddies all had to see in person this new original innovator that's revolutionizing the instrument.

@MetalKidDanny The bass player is Yossi Fine, look him up. He usually plays a "Vigier" (same make as Stanley) but I don't think he did for that show. I think a lot of the low end got lost over the tape this was recorded on and over digital conversion.
