    The 1st time I heard this song, that was 30 years ago. As of today I'm still listening to it. One of the very best!

    I heard this song for this first time on a jazz radio station in Los Angeles in the early 90s. Music like this can't be found anywhere. It's so unfortunate.

    For me,this track is the GREATEST instrumental that Jonathan Butler ever recorded. I wish that the Watercolors channel on Sirius/XM would put this in their rotation!

    I love this song, it brings back so many memories. I found the CD on Amazon and purchased two to replace my original copy which was damaged years ago. funny thing is that i could never get this song out of my head it has stuck in my mind for years, Thank You Mr Butler for one of the most wonderful compositions ever!

    This was one of my favorites too! I went searching for it in 2011, and later in 2016, to find out it was "not there" and couldn't find it. Part of me freaked-out and thought "Mandela Effect", but it appears it's just a record label thing I guess. I was soo happy to find this tune!!!! It is one of the most happy, relaxing, and uplifting tunes there is!!! Excellent job on those keys Michael Bearden!

    This was my favorite track we did on this record. We recorded at least two more that the label never put on the record. They were amazing songs! I'd love to hear them again actually. . R.I.P. to Wayne Braithwaite (producer/bass) and Don Alias (percussion) The other musicians on here are Omar Hakim, (drums), Vincent Henry, (reeds), me Michael Bearden, (keys) and of course JB! So underrated on this album! M~

      @themichaelbearden Awesome stuff. Did you also work on "Crossroads Revisited"? That was the first tune I heard from JB on the radio. Enjoyed it ever since.

    That album is a classic. Sad it's underrated. It's not even on ITunes. Coulors, deliverance are my favorite tracks.

    Colours is my favorite Jonathan Butler song. It's just one of those classic songs that despite being decades old, It sounds just as great now as it did when it was originally released. It was a great combination of Jonathan's masterful guitar playing and whoever was laying the funk down on the bass guitar. Absolutely outstanding! 🔥🔥

    After all the hardships he went through whilst growing up in Cape Town.... Now he had to sing and dance for the Lord Jesus like King David danced for the Lord... After he was Delivered.
