Smooth OpeRATTor

Who would have ever thought about mixing a smooth jazz ballad with '80s glam metal? Bill McClintock, of course. In this case, he takes the tune of Sade's 1984 hit "Smooth Operator" with the vocals of Ratt's 1984 song "Round and Round." The only thing these songs have in common is the year they were released. You would have likely heard them on the radio in the same hour, but it takes a special ear to see how well they could mix. 

But McClintock always gives us extras. the guitar solo from Santana's "Black Magic Woman" fits right in. That one's from 1968, so it at least breaks up the timeline. Still, you could have easily her Santana's song in that same radio hour. (via Laughing Squid)
