[teedavis56]

[kenconnor2006]

oneof the most significant tracks of the twentieth century

[MusicalSista]

Fantastic music! This brings back great memories. This was my Number one summer tune back in the day got it on vinyl and CD. Shame these great artists have moved on, shame a lot of the tunes today just don't cut it. Every generation says their musical era was the best..but I am in the middle so I love and miss the tunes of the 70's, 80's and 90's. They were THE BEST! Thanx for the upload.

[MrVicnash]

sounds as good today as it did back in the day ! nice one

[ziggy08080]

This song takes me right back to high school. Not a problem in the world. Just great music and my radio. Thanks for the post !

[TheGrownasswoman]

From New York to Richmond Va, when this song hit was an explosion for clubs all over music was starting to change and the instrumental beat was taking over ..This is and always will be a classic...Donald Byrd...God bless you baby...80's

[Gamekeeper77]

ah - sublime sound, had me in bliss smiling and nodding away for seven minutes - transported back to a time when life was care free and easy

[TheKenington]

Man! I cannot believe how good this song was. Life was hard but yet so good. Good times yah know....

[loves2spooge144026]

GTA VICE CITY FTW

[robphilll22]

Another classic that got lost in the dance graveyard no thanks to the rap era.

[goodtimes0000]

great tune, never fails to put a smile on my face...

[RapSince99Sucx]

Byrd... a legend!

[lidvppv11]

@RapSince99Sucx I'm with you!

[jazzsoulfan]

Seven minutes of great music, written by Isaac Hayes and performed by Donald Byrd. That was such an underrated tune but I played it at my discotheque every evening, answered questions about the artist & got honoured by my favourite record store at that time to bring him so many customers. He sold more than 100 copies of the album/12", so it must be a wonder for the record industry.

Music history would be poor without these two artists & without this track, I still love to listen to it!

[pinkled]

I have the 7" , but I'm pretty sure it's a different mix of the song. Brilliant tune.

[bandan83]

I love the bit at 2:30!

[EMMAWONDERLAND1]

Really nice.

[CONSMSTE]

CookyMonzta - Thanks for enlightening me on the genius of Isaac Hayes.

[roverdino]

What a tune !!! Great memories of the clubs in London and the South East with Froggy and Chris Hill ..... Superb, thanx for posting

[ezabdullah]

When I first heard this song, I said that is one baad jam. I never would have guessed it was produced by Donald Byrd. Sorry for underestimating you

Mr. Byrd. This is magnificent music.

[CookyMonzta]

@ezabdullah It was produced by Black Moses himself; the late, great Isaac Hayes. He produced Donald Byrd's 1981 album 'Love Byrd'.

[kavaske]

Miss and Love that analog sound !!!

[ilovececelia86]

this song has touched a dozen memories of undergraduate time at SUNY New Paltz. Lord were those good days and this song dropped during my senior year. Then the group played that year at B;ack Weekend.

Groovey time!

[MrEurotrash]

are you using a compressor?

Vocals are folding etc

[fastflyer2007]

No, I'm into using compressors! This originally uploaded in a flv format to enable stero encoding on YouTube - but unfortunately, some files were compressed by YT using this method. Annoying....

[MrEurotrash]

@fastflyer2007 OK

Otherwise Killer track w our hero Black Moses. Have a great weekend

[fastflyer2007]

That should have read NOT into using compressors. Enjoy anyway.

[RXmusic4YOU]
