NuDirections with Ray Cooke opens with the killer tropical reggae cover of Sade's Smooth Operator. Sabrina Rich had been making records in her and her ex-husband's studio in their garage for years. The track was originally released in small numbers as sort of a demo and never really took off, the single went into obscurity until many years later when copies of the record turned up in New York and Toronto.
