Rather belatedly, this album track from three years ago is a new discovery for me. It's got a great retro feel and I really like it, but to my ears the melody bears more than a passing resemblance to:

Keith, I can hear the likeness. When I bought the album, which has a retro soul feel, I pegged this track in the mould of the Dakar / Brunswick Chicago stuff.... Carl Davis / Sonny Sanders / Tom Tom 84/ Willie Henderson. In any event, we definitely agree it's Chicago sound! cheers Mike

The resemblance to Love Makes a Woman was what I thought of first when I first played. It's a great album though Keith.
