This catt was one of my favorites of all times!!!! I remember when his first album came out!! Not a bad song on there til this day Nard is in my top 10 albums of all time!!! B. Wright you still the man!!!!
ummm, if ur referring to jay-z or p diddles as musicians, i have to disagree with you. but your point is well-received. now go have the COURAGE to vote third party and "throw your vote away." or watch the whole planet get jewwed up and the independent spirit of man go into the toilet. we've already lost independent music, movies and tv and newspapers and magazines. those "good" things will continue to get marginalized by jewbag bankers and media and the global plutocrats...
@Spidapalooza He was a special talent. Good example of the best musicians not getting the aclaim some others with less talent get, which is the norm. This tune lives up to the title.
@Spidapalooza say what? he is better then all of them all put together, remember that he did it before some of them so called musician these day were never even born, some had nappies some were just playing around.
@Spidapalooza i have to agree with you, even though i produce today :). Producers like me who make French House, use samples from music from the 80's to make our own, i find it amazing how deep the composition of this music is
yo jus making sure i wuz jus replying back to this otha guy fleischpudding.....i did not say he wuz german even once....im black why would i say sumthin so stupid....i wonder who gave me that damn thumbs dwn...lol
Damn, I wish I can transport myself to the 70s and 80s sometimes, to be old enough to go to the nightclubs and dance! I can't stand the dribble they play at the clubs nowadays...you need alcohol to get through the night, which is sad, considering I don't drink.
I remember bernard wright but his music played that much and that's the reason for his short lived career in music. He had more than this but as i said b4 music wasn't played that much He had some nice beats
I liked this, but it always seemed (and still seems) like something is missing. I keep hearing some keyboard/synth part that keeps the groove going, because there are a lot of holes in the bassline. David Franks (keyboard player in The System) did that on The System's tunes, and it really made a big difference.
Once again, I was only ten in 1983. I remember this song well as a matter of fact, but it was not played to often. It was C rated song for me back then. I clicked to this by accident. Thank you for sharing, it's nice to hear those rare grooves once in a great while.
