lyrics

The Quiet storm was a radio format performed in a smooth, romantic, jazz-influenced style. It was named after the title song on Smokey Robinson's 1975 album, "A Quiet Storm."

The Quiet Storm was melodically soulful music that provided an intimate, laid-back mood for late-night listening. The music selections were initially old, slow romantic songs from black artists of the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s - a form of easy listening. Remember KBLX?

Ben Fong-Torres of Rolling Stone Magazine called quiet storm a "blend of pop, jazz fusion, and R&B ballads—all elegant and easy-flowing, like a flute of Veuve Clicquot champagne.”
