"I have a clear memory of working out the lead vocal on Steve Porcaros song Lea. He had sung a lead that was very cool. It was supposed to be the Its A Feeling for this record, (I thought) but I think he heard me sort of mimic him and asked me to try a lead on it. It was unusual because it was 180 degrees from the high tenor stuff I was hired to sing. I remember Steves direction was very detailed. He wanted it a certain way. I love the fact that I got to sing that one. Its one of my favorite sounding vocal performances of my career."
