One of the world's most commercially successful and acclaimed artist/bands in the history of popular music, Steve Miller was a mainstay of the San Francisco music scene that upended American culture in the late 60s and by the early '70s had crafted a brand of pure pop that was polished, exciting and irresistible. Hit followed hit in what seemed like an endless flow and to this day, his songs are instantly recognizable when they come on the radio, their hooks the very definition of indelible. Miller & Co. were the hottest thing on American radio, and in record stores, in the late summer of 1982. Their album Abracadadra, released in May that year, was on its way to platinum sales in the US alone, and about to start a six-week run at No. 3 on the Billboard 200. By September, the ace guitarist and his band were the kings of pop too, as the infectious title track from the album climbed to No. 1 on the Hot 100. The song, written by Miller and co-produced with the band's drummer Gary Mallaber, typified the Milwaukee axeman's ability to create excellent album rock with an ear for the commercial single. The Abracadabra album also became their only Top 10 LP in the UK, spending three consecutive weeks at No. 10.
