Ride project due to the fact that he was recording his own album which was released at the same time as Low Ride, entitled In Your Eyes. Charles Meeks played bass on the album's lead track Back In Central Park and then appears only on Christina, and If You're Still In Love With Me (which also features James Bradley, Jr. on drums). Denzil Miller, known affectionately as "Broadway" Miller at the time, plays the solo electric piano on the title track. Lucio Harper appears for one track namely "Just Like Yesterday" which got a lot of airplay on radio in the US and UK though was never released as a single in the UK. "Back in Central Park" is a departure from much of the other tracks in that it has an underlining "live" party feel to the recording. Featuring the chatter and vocals of Frank Floyd, Merle Miller and Dana Kral, the lead album track was released as a single in the US and UK just ahead of the album's release by Capitol. The single, available in both 7" and 12" formats in the UK scaled the top 10 of the UK Jazz Funk and Soul charts and performed well in the UK Jazz Fusion Forty Chart. On the title track, the sessions were joined by vocalists Marti McCall, Carolyn Dennis and Myrna Matthews. Orchestral arrangements for If "You're Still In Love With Me" were in the hands of Johnny Mandel; with Clair Fischer taking care of Christina. Responsibility for all horn arrangements on the album rested with Dave Matthews. Leading UK Jazz Funk DJ Robbie Vincent played the outstanding track Night Drive on his famous Radio London "Saturday Show" when the album was still only available as an import. This caused a big scurry of fans and DJs to the London record shops that same weekend where import copies quickly sold out. Within two weeks, the album was released officially in the UK by EMI and sold well. Night Drive has been released in an edited format for radio play since but is now restored to full version on all pressings. For many years, the Low Ride album remained unreleased on CD, except for a limited release in West Germany in 1983 on the EMI Capitol label (CDP 7 46007 2). Only in 2006/07 did CD copies start to surface and in 2010, the album finally was remastered
