"I'll Let You Slide" by Luther Vandross

Known for his sultry ballads and soft pop, Luther Vandross left behind a string of hits through the decades until his passing in 2005 at the age of 54. He began his chart career in 1981 when "Never Too Much" peaked at #33 and finished it with the beautiful "Dance With My Father," (co-written with Richard Marx) which reached #38 and won Grammys for Song of the Year and R&B Male Vocal in 2003.

Vandross was no stranger to the Top 10 in the 90s, scoring hits like "Here And Now" (#6, another Grammy winner), "Power of Love/Love Power" (#4, another Grammy winner), "Don't Want To Be A Fool" (#9), "The Best Things In Life Are Free" (#10), and "Endless Love" (a duet with Mariah Carey that soared to #2).

"I'll Let You Slide" shows the dance side of Vandross, in all of its 80s glory. It comes from his 1983 album, "Busy Body," which produced the Top 40 hit with Dionne Warwick, "How Many Times Can We Say Goodbye" (#27).
