From the moment “Living in the Flow” dropped in April 2021, the smooth jazz single climbed from #25 to #5 on the Billboard Hot 100 Smooth Singles chart after 19 weeks. Fans and new listeners love the tune, which steps outside of the traditional smooth jazz genre, mesmerizing with its subtle virtuosity and brilliant compositions and arrangements by the legendary keyboardist/organist bobby Lyle. But what was lurking and consistently climbing on the Smooth Jazz Recurrent chart was the single, “Living in the Flow,” which literally has been living quite comfortably on Billboard for over five weeks at the coveted #1 position.
“We are so proud of Bobby Lyle and his single “Living in the Flow.” He is a legend and deserves this #1 spot on Billboard Smooth Jazz Recurrent chart. Every bit of music he has ever put out, ranging from THE GENIE right up to IVORY FLOW has been topnotch, created and composed with staying power. Congratulations to the Emmy-nominated/Hall of Fame Inductee Bobby Lyle on incredible achievement.” – The First Take PR Team

Bobby Lyle on “Living in the Flow”
“This tune was chosen as the first radio single because of the front and center piano melodies and the airwaves-friendly groove laid down by bassist Nate Phillips and drummer Jay Williams. Kerry Wilkens gave me superb guitar work on this one. As far as inspiration, I love to observe the flow of life, whether it’s children on a playground, people bustling through a busy airport, birds and squirrels in the park, or me just silently driving through the countryside. This song seems to reflect all that.” – Schmooze Jazz Magazine
