Playing sideman to Rick Braun, Larry Carlton, Gato Barbieri, the Neville Brothers, and many others introduced guitarist/vocalist Steve Oliver to smooth jazz fans, but it was with Steve Reid's band that Oliver found a following. It was 1996 when Reid contacted Oliver at the last minute to fill in for a canceled opening act. Oliver hit the stage as a solo act and Reid was impressed with the guitarist's vocalese skills and summery sound (Oliver is a California native and a true follower of the laid-back lifestyle). Oliver had come to vocalese not through King Pleasure or Lambert, Hendricks & Ross, but through Bobby McFerrin and Pat Metheny's work with Richard Bona and David Blamires, who sang along with guitar solos. Being a fan of the earthy Metheny sound, Reid hired Oliver after the gig and featured him in his touring band. Reid's Mysteries and Passion in Paradise albums featured Oliver not only as guitarist but songwriter as well.

I KNOW....

it's been a long, long time

since i've seen your face

right before my eyes.

i could never forget it, it is so clear,

i know nothing could hide it.

because you're one in a million,

two makes a billion,

everyone can see what you've done to me.

because i want to be near you

so i could hear you,

all those sweet things you say.

because i know

what i am feeling.

do you feel the same way too?

because you and me,

we make a perfect example

for this world to see.

please come talk to me.

i want to know everything about you,

what's inside your heart.

i would do the same for you,

there's no reason to hide.
