Its so wild how heavy the DMV is up in here... That Quiet Storm really does have its roots in my beloved hometown..

This was definitely a mainstay in the DC, WHUR, Melvin Lindsey days. It makes my heart glad to see all the comments from fellow Washingtonians and people who had the pleasure of being in DC during this era. In fact, I am going to play this song every day for one entire year. If you were there, let me know. I'm gonna be here all year. Day 1, let's go....

The Quiet Storm Kept This One In Rotation

Good ol days when people cried over a break up instead of vandalizing cars and killing someone. 😔

Anybody from D.C. back in the day knows that this was the song you "slow dragged", "dipped" and "bopped" to! And I got it on my MP3 player!

I'm not even from DC and I've always loved this song.

I thought I was the only one from the DC who loved this song but I was WAY wrong! Love this song...

I learned about this song years ago from a CD compilation called Slow Jams: Timeless Collection Vol. 8. Although it originated from DC/Maryland area, it deserved more attention & exposure. I can't believe Southern area radio stations (LA, MS, FL, GA, AL) never heard of this memorable gem.

So wish this was on ITUNES!! Thanx for sharing!! Classic

Old school. 75-90. That quiet storm. Let's go back. Sitting in your room listening, thinking and wishing. The 80s. I'll say it again...the 80s made you,broke you and showed love. 96.3 on that D.C. side. No matter what you did through the day. 8 o'clock. You and myself was ready. Maxwell cassette on play/pause. Sending it to that special one. Good days.

The first time I heard it was early 80's and I fell in love with it. Everytime I walked into the club, they knew to play this before I left. That kind of love and music was deep and soothing. I would sang it to my children for years, still woos me❣.

I remember this was the slow jam that was played at every house party. I got my first slow dance to this song. The memories!

Loving this in 2018!!

I remember skating off this song❤❤❤

Melvin Lindsay, Kevin Slow Jammin James back in the day.... those were the days
