The Bridge is the tenth studio album by American singer-songwriter Billy Joel, released on July 28, 1986. It was the last studio album produced by Phil Ramone as well as the last to feature Joel's long-time bassist Doug Stegmeyer and rhythm guitarist Russell Javors. The album yielded several successful singles, including "A Matter of Trust" (peaking at No. 10), "Modern Woman" (which also appeared on the Ruthless People soundtrack, peaking at No. 10), and "This Is the Time" (peaking at No. 18). Joel began work on the album — on which two of his major influences (Ray Charles and Steve Winwood) made guest appearances — in 1985. Charles sang a duet with Joel on the song "Baby Grand", and Winwood played Hammond organ on the song "Getting Closer".

There is a transcendental place that musicians can reach during performance. A space where they get lost in the music, letting the years honed skills and natural inclination take control. Many of the exhilarating moments in improvised music come from the sudden shift, the accentuation of razor sharp focus, to get back on course.

Percussionist Ray Barretto has long been a legend in both the jazz and salsa communities, performing and recording with Tito Puente, Oliver Nelson, and Herbie Mann. THE OTHER ROAD, originally released in 1973, highlights the jazz side of Barretto’s musical personality while still maintaining roots in Afro-Cuban and Latin sounds. A set of originals, save for a cover of the Thelonious Monk classic “’Round (About) Midnight,” ROAD features smooth, classy ensemble playing and inspired soloing from the likes of Art Webb, Manny Duran (who also contributed arrangements), and Roberto Rodriguez. Barretto gives the Monk tune a bolero rhythm, putting an unexpected Latin spin on a well-known ballad.
