| Gino Vannelli
learned to play the drums early in life and studied music theory
at McGill University. He formed an R&B band with two brothers,
but later began recording solo material for RCA in 1970.
He became popular four years
later when A&M released his hit single "People Gotta Move,"
from the Powerful People album (re-titled People Gotta Move).
Many albums followed, including
Storm at Sunup (1975), Gist of Gemini (1976), A Pauper in Paradise
(1977), Brother to Brother (1978), Nightwalker (1981), Black
Cars (1985), Big Dreamers Never Sleep (1987), Inconsolable Man
(1990) and Live in Montreal (1992).
After a lengthy absence from
the studio, Vannelli returned in 1995 with Yonder Tree; Slow
Love followed three years later.
