What kind of keyboards/drum machines did they use in this song? i would guess at a DX-7 or OB-8 or something, can anyone confirm?

This was Narada Michael Walden, right?

I'll tell you what it was: FUCKING AWESOME

Same ones used on Whitney's "How Will I Know," also written/produced by Narada Michael Walden.

I like to remember Narada for his drumming on Robert Fripp's "Breathless"...

sometimes I marvel at what a filthy lyric "we're going riding on the freeway of love in a pink cadillac" is

lol don't like this album much apart from "Another Night" and "Integrity," although listening to Aretha encouraging Peter Wolf to push harder is worth it.

She sounded pretty great last night, and ended (more or less) with like a 15 minute version of "Freeway of Love." Best treat was that she had Narada Michael Walden back on drums!

I don't think she did that song for that long at her recent DC area gig. She was great at times, and not so great on other songs at our a bit uneven gig.

I can't stand her second biggest '80s hit.
