Classici Rock

Street Life è un brano composto e inciso dai Crusaders, che vede la partecipazione canora (non accreditata) di Randy Crawford. Canzone incisa dalla band texana nel 1979, fa parte del loro album omonimo che ne rappresenta l'apice del successo commerciale, grazie al particolare mix tra jazz, soul, pop e funk che dava vita allo stile "fusion". Musica e parole portano le firme di Joe Sample e Will Jennings: fu la loro hit più riuscita, affidata proprio alla voce della georgiana Crawford.
