    THANK FOR POSTING THIS!

    You made my day, week, year! I have been trying to find this song, I want to use it in a flim, it is one of my absolute fav songs of all time!

    Thank you!

  • i love this song......and a gd club 2 here it is in venue in new cross......they play well gd 70s 80s n 90s music

  • this is juss to badass tune from way back , when music was music, classic

  • tru dat

  • Yeah.. Brings back some good memories. Boogying in the Nightclub and strutting my stuff.. lol..

  • Me too... this was a class track!

    I just have horrid memories of my 80's perm!

  • i've been looking 4 this 4 months thank god i found it

  • Man i could get my groove on to this tune if they played it in the clubs round where i'm at!

  • Great club classic!

  • I just found out that I am so outta touch with this generation. Really.. my roommates in the house were blasting some new R&B.. some Ne-Yo, Chris Brown, T "can't sing for sh*t" Pain, Dream... whatever the hell he's called, and a gang of new artists that I haven't even heard of. While I'm in my room blasting some Fatback.. is there something wrong with me b/c I like this music?.. and I'm 21 to top it all off.

  • nkzeroG, do NOT...I REPEAT...do NOT be ashamed of listening to real music. It's ok to think outside of the box and not adhere to nonsensical bullshit. You know it's music when you can tell that people put their heart and soul in it, not formulaic cookie cutter garbage that makes us as people look stupid. A lot of these mainstream "R&B" clowns can't hold a candle to this. Since you are 21, I got a question, "When did the word 'shawty' become prevalent in the R&B lexicon nowadays?" LOL

  • LOL... I was born during the New Jack Swing Era, and remember the whole Jeep Era (R. Kelly, Jodeci, Blackstreet.. etc) and none of those artists used it. Hmm, first application of that word that I remember in R&B was Donell Jones' "Shorty Got Her Eyes On Me" in 1999.. it may have happened before that.. idk. But thanks for the reply, I just had to ask b/c every time a new so called "R&B" (which these days stands for rocks and blunts) song comes out.. I cringe.

  • woo!!!!!!!!!!

  • Hi there, I'm 21 myself, and i agree this is one of the best tunes i heard myself. The majority of todays R'n'B Comes right off the production line just so it makes the record companies money. There aint no heart and soul put into the music they broadcast today, as you have mentioned the likes of 'Chris Brown T-(Cant sing for shit)Pain. They need computer aided stuff to make their voices sound right. The talent in new music today is not being shown like it used to. Do you agree?

  • Hell yea I agree, there were two events in my lifetime when I found out that music wasn't like it used to be, and in turn put me on to real music. First time was when I went through my friend's CD case and started listening to his OJays, Mtume, Isley's, Chi-Lites etc. I think the defining moment where I finally dropped new "R&B" was when my friend brought her mom's New Edition CD to class and I started listening to it. Haven't been the same since.

  • i dont think there's an (R&B) artist today that can creat an album without having a single song on there sampled, i guess today people are more or less gettin record deals based on their appearance other than their singin abilities, idk, i could be wrong, but i agree wit you, music aint the same no more

  • In agreement!!!!

  • great song thanx for posting

  • I swear I will jam to this song forever!!!

  • We still play this at BBQ's!!!!!!!

  • best song ever !!!!

  • LL Cool J's theme song to the t.v. "In the House" used this sample.

  • now I know where Ashanti got this....

  • TheOPQ4 I agree

  • this video needs more views this is classic

  • From time to time I get a random beat come into my head from a song from yesteryear and it always strikes me as odd. But funnily enough that random beat always leads me to great songs released before I was born. Perhaps my brain is getting tired of the (supposedly crap) music currently on my mp3 player.

    But srsly, great awesomely good song. :D

  • one of the best songs ever!! never get bored of this....classic!

    Mr.groove Belgium

  • finally found this song YEAH BABY!!! love it, written the same year i was born and it ROCKS THE FUNK!

  • i have been looking for this song for two years all i knew was the bass riff and accenty thing and finally i found out ahhhhhhhhhh bathe in the glory - i found it! i found lovin!!!!

  • Doesn't get much better than this.

  • This is the tune. Point blank full stop. 20 yrs old and I groove to this every morning on the way to work. No doubt.

  • This was the club joint, right here!

  • awesome song!!

  • Jeff Redd's remix was OK, BUT this is the track right here. Every party I've ever given or been to didn't heat up until THIS SONG played!Why are all the best groups so underrated. Don't answer that; it's rhetorical. Those of us who really have a love for the talent and artistry that come with making really great music know the answer to that question. This is truly a CLASSIC, though

  • So is Mine all Mine a rip of this?

    Got to say I prefer Mine all Mine but that's cause I heard it first, they're pretty similar.

  • Fatback came first (1984), Cashflow's "Mine All Mine" came out around late spring '86

  • I can't tell you how happy I was to find this today. Yesterday I found Mainline (yall know that one?) on iTunes and today only the live in Japan version on iTunes...tried You Tube and tears actually came to my eyes! This was/is the jam!!! Makes me dance...and I dont dance LOL!

  • just a shame they didnt get the props they deserved for this track... unfortunately most people only remember that cockney losers version of the song.cant believe that his version outsold fatbacks in the uk! what a joke he was.saw fatback last year at southport weekender - quality ,tight band.

  • Im only 22 but when i hear this, it makes me wish i was born approx 15 yrs before. Seemed like a simpler time. Why dosen't music sound like this anymore>????

  • the lyrical genius MIKE GLC has taken this track and turned it into a complete and utter CHART HIT. Hit up "Mike GLC - Beautiful Day" to hear what this music MOGUL has done with this track

    LIKE DAT YO N DEN WHAT

  • LOL!!!!

  • This song brings back a lot of good memories.

    It's what I call a "FUNKY LOVE SONG."

  • one of the best songs ever made !!!!!

  • sounds exactly Mine all mine by Cashflow

    Croon3

  • simply amazing !

  • this song is just wicked many a good night in my clubbing days dancing to this mainly near the end of the night when i was really drunk!and didnt give 2 craps what anyone thought of my dancing!lol

  • This one of my favorite all time songs!

  • Yeah baby what a tune for getting smoochy with your lady :)

  • Anyone know where I can download an mp3 version of this?

    I don't want a live version or remix, which is what they have on iTunes.

  • download limewire ... and then download this sonq

  • you what you what you what you what rip steve walsh

  • 1987 Gran canaria ...Playa dela Ingles The Jack Daniels Bar...I was there... What a Holiday...u wha, u Wha...

  • 1986 ibiza you what you what

  • I was born way after this was released..but everytime i hear it.. i think...damn...chris brown and the rest of the R&B cats out now don't have anything on the old school... im a big fan of fatback, mac band, new edition, the temps, and janet jackson...that was good music.. i even digg the new jack swing era..what happened to good music?

  • Well said. It's good to know that the younger cats appreciate the SOUL of good music. Nowadays, MONEY became a primary factor instead of ARTISTRY. Once money became a PRIMARY factor, you compromise the integrity and purity of the music that you put out. There were REAL BANDS, REAL TALENT, and not this garbage out. Nowadays, people focus on POP sounds and flashy stage presence to hide how wack they are. I am NOT a fan of R&B today (mainstream). It's a minstrel show, just like (c)rap.

  • Wow you are so right. i consider myself a youngin with a Very old school soul cuz this is the music i honestly enjoy and prefer over Chris Brown, Rhianna, Dream and who ever else. I'm a true fan of New Jack.

  • That's what I'm talking about!!!! Keep on Funkin' Youngin' LOL

  • FAN TAS TICKKKKK!!!!!!!!!

  • This is the meaning of my youth!!!
