A press release describes “Love’s Train” as one of Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak’s “favorite songs.” The track appeared on Con Funk Shun’s 1982 record To the Max. In a 2017 interview, bandleader Michael Cooper explained the song’s inspiration: both he and bandmate Felton Pilate fell for the same woman.
Mars and .Paak released An Evening With Silk Sonic in November 2021. Last night, Anderson .Paak drummed during the Pepsi Super Bowl LVI halftime show.
