Why yall still calling him Kais Dad? We been on this journey for a while now he is just Dad to me now. Lol. We all family now.

Steve WInwoods singing really highlights where his career was about to take off with Traffic

The intro bass reminds me of Curtis Mayfield “Pusherman” which came out in 1972. I wouldn’t doubt I’m A Man was the inspiration.
