Allee Willis, David Foster, David Lasley, Michael Boddicker, Mike Porcaro, Pablo Cruise, Steve Porcaro

Part of the Game is the fifth album by the California soft rock group Pablo Cruise. The album marked a decline in the band’s popularity, as it managed only to reach #39 in the United States. One single was released from the album: I Want You Tonight, reaching #19 in the United States. The band called the album a transition into a blend of disco to take advantage of the extreme popularity of that type of music at the time. According Bill Schnee, Mike Porcaro plays all the studio bass parts.
