Home

The Speed of Love**+ [3:36] (M. White, W. Vaughn, W, Vaughn, T. Haynes): "The Speed of Love" follows an exceptional interlude featuring, kalimba, bass and drums.



Group leader Maurice White commented on the liner notes of this album that "It Don't Mean a Thing, If it ain't got that Swing" and most likely he was referring to "The Speed of Love" when he mentioned swingin'. The "Speed of Love" boasts an uptempo swing sound, full of hooks, horns and winds, crooning tenor voices of course augmented by falsetto mastery.
