The other day I decided to dust off and play an album by Michael McDonald from the mid 80' called No Lookin' Back. Turns out Jeff Porcaro did most of the drums on that LP but the one that was the point of this post was song #5 "Any Foolish Thing". The groove is the CLASSIC Porcaro Shuffle!!!!!! Not sure if this came before or after Rosanna but it is worth checking out. Classic groove. I'm having a ball playing it!!!!
 
Yeah it's a great groove. He did it after Rosanna. I actually prefer it too- sounds more fluid and is nicer to play IMO. However not a fan off the included synth bass and 80's electric toms which seemed to be included on every mid 80s record!
 
Totaly agree!!! This groove is a little slower than Rosanna and really cleans up the Porcaro shuffle> I found it much easier to follow.
