    When I think of jazz, I think of Sade’s song Smooth Operator. It is a single from her debut studio album Diamond Life (1984). It was released as the album’s third single in the United Kingdom.

    In the United States, "Smooth Operator" was released in February 1985, serving as the album's second US single. The song became Sade's first top-10 entry in the US, peaking at number five on the Billboard Hot 100 for two weeks in May 1985. It spent 13 weeks in the top 40, and also topped the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart for two weeks.
    Although "Your Love Is King" remains Sade's highest-peaking single in the UK to date, "Smooth Operator" is the band's breakthrough single on the US charts, and their most successful single internationally.

    Hello, I'm Gail Nobles. Welcome to Rhythmic Blue.

    Believe it or not,Prince made a lot of music that sounded like jazz from his 1991 album Diamonds and Pearls. He made a song titled Scrolling. It’s the fifth track on the album.

    From his 2015 album HitNRun Phase 2. He made a song titled Look At Me, Look At You.

    Prince has a 2009 album titled Lotus Flower. He has a single on that album titled Love Like Jazz.

    There are many more songs that Prince had made that sounded like jazz. He must have loved jazz music. Prince was a musical genius.

    It is said that Prince left behind an underground bank vault of music. He didn't want to give the recording companies the best stuff, and I don't blame him.

    It is said that Prince had his own record label title Paisley Park Records founded in 1985 which was distributed by and funded and part by Warner Brothers Records. It was started in 1985 following the success of the film and Purple Rain. Prince had the right idea.

    You're listening to Rhythmic Blue. Today’s topic: Prince and Jazz. Thank you for listening.

    On her 1980 TV special, Donna Summer performed a jazz medley. One of the songs she performed was titled The Man I Love. Music by George Gershwin and lyrics by Ira Gershwin
    The Man I Love Comes from Donna's 1978 album Lve and More. Together “With I got It Bad” and “That Ain't Good”. Live and More is the first live album recorded by Donna Summer. The Man I Love is on side two, and it's the number 10 song on the album with I Got It Bad (And That Ain't Good/Some of These Days (My Man Medley).

    Donna performed The Man I Love so well on her 1980 TV special with a red hat and long red dress with a feathered look. It was singers like Donna Summer that made me sort of listen to jazz because I didn't like jazz. I would see it on old black and white films like in the 1940s with all the piano playing and horn playing. But to see someone from my time that I loved like Donna Summer made me hear jazz. She helped me to listen and understand through her singing. Donna Summer was a sound of a different drummer with her voice to my ears introducing jazz.

    I'm Gail Nobles. Thank you for listening to Rhythmic Blue.
