Welcome to "The Backstage Pass," where we unlock the captivating tales behind musical masterpieces. In this episode, we turn our spotlight on the genre-defying hit "Easy Lover" by Phil Collins and Philip Bailey, released in 1984.

Our journey begins in Denver, where Philip Bailey's soulful roots take shape. From singing in his local church every Sunday to honing his drumming and percussion skills at university, Bailey's musical journey unfolds. Picture the scene in 1972 when Maurice White, Earth, Wind & Fire's leader, recognizes Bailey's extraordinary vocal range and invites him to join the iconic group.

Fast forward to the '80s, where the ebb of Earth, Wind & Fire's success opens the door for Bailey's solo career. Enter Phil Collins, selected to produce Bailey's third solo album. As the recording progresses, Collins senses the need for a musical bridge, a track that defies categorization and unites pop, soul, and rock.
