All The Way Live: Raphael Saadiq Does Tony! Toni! Toné!


In case you hadn't noticed, it was Raphael Saadiq Week in Morning Soul, so it's only fitting that I end this week's All The Way Live showcase with some footage of Raphael that I captured last fall when I saw him in concert. Although I have been a fan of his work since back in the late '80s, "hey, Little Walter" days, it wasn't until 2008 that I finally saw Raphael Saadiq live. And I wanted to kick myself in the proverbial ding-ding for missing out on 20 years of live musical bliss. Because that is precisely what I felt when at this man's show, and boy does he put one on. At the time he was touring to promote his last release The Way I See It, and fans were diggin' the old soul of the new music. But it wasn't until he dug into his arsenal of Tony! Toni! Toné! and solo hits that the audience went bananas as you'll see and hear when you press play below to watch a medley of "(Lay Your Head On My) Pillow," "It Never Rains In Southern California" and "Anniversary." For more live Saadiq goodies--and there are many--head on over to ButtaTube and be sure to catch Raphael when he is next in concert near you.
