    In 1988, people all over the world were moving to the smooth R&B sound of Kiara and their great hit, "The Best of Me."  It was the biggest hit that the Detroit-based duo consisting of multi-instrumentalist John Winston and vocalist Gregory Charley would have.  But while the duo was soon forgotten by many, the song remained a Lost Gem, which we've unearthed this week for your listening enjoyment.  It still sounds great 23 years later.

    Take a listen and tell us what you think.
