House ppl, God bless you wherever you are! ٩(- ̮̮̃-̃)۶ 

[konspiracykid]

Dreamy salsa grooves! Love this. In fact I love all house music from this time....big tune in Mancland this...when it used to drop the airhorns would go off and it was like being beamed to another planet where they had E's and salsa house!

[tonedijambro]

Quality cultured Latino stylee house! Great for dancing to, if you can last out the whole song! Swing those hips, move those feet and shake yo ass! Wahey!

[rouwette71]

I love this track

[88dave89]

ten dislikes\ mad people what the dont you love about this tune. get back to take that you fools

[MJ1992able]

wata tune

[p4ddythehelipilot]

LOL 22yrs later i find out this is by Richie Rich. I can't remember the name of the record shop in tottenham his studio was in the back of now?? I got him to sign my copy of 'check it out' or was it 'don't be flash'??

[CountRushmore]

best intro ever, so atmospheric!

[SNATCHYDBS]

oh man massive tune ......good times come flooding back .... class mate class nuff said ...

[CelticProgeny]

Oh man this track was like, OK fella, you've had a top night, you've been as high as you've ever been and you've probably pushed it a bit, but it's time to come back and it's gonna be alright :-)

And it was.

[tonedijambro]

QUALITY! VERY DANCABLE! CLASSIC LATIN SOUL HOUSE! DEFINITELY NEED MORE NEW DANCE SONGS LIKE THIS ON THE RADIO, RATHER THAN ALL THE COMMERCIALLY, ROBOTIC, FORMULAIC, PREDICTABLE AND REHASHED NAFF SO-CALLED 'DANCE MUSIC' THATS BEEN RELEASED IN THE LAST 10 YEARS...!!

Thanks!!

[jproctor1978]

my old man used to drive around the M25, I used to go with him just to tune into pirate radio from London Town - I had this off-key walkman with FM etc. - anyway, I was holding the headphone wire up high and I caught Rave 99.3 (I think) playing this about 11pm, beautiful track, I can't describe that "underground" vibe that came with the FM dial back then?

[ancientraver19881989]

@jproctor1978

know the feeling and the frustration when depending where you were and what you were listening too the static came in - i listened to from about 1982 to about 1993 - jazz-funk > acid house > hardcore - great times to live around London.

[jproctor1978]

@ancientraver19881989 Big, Big Respect and Peace goes out to you, Sir :)

[Pirateofthe7seas]

woah, number!

[MrEyewitness1]

NYC, the way it used to be......

[gianni1111111]

luv it gr8 classic by Richie Rich....

[deeder2000]

The way the synths came in at the start made my Adrenalin go even after all those years, alongside Can u feel it, Promised Land, this will epitomise 87-88 in the UK (it was the maddest!).

[stevengooner1]

you can have the tunes but its how you put them together go for it ill be your fan

[cwillisable]

[manuel33306]

[PROPODKINSBRO72]

a monster tune for my generation :-}

[MrDudeboy2009]

the 7 dislikes were from his producer enemies

[Cromeus]

Crazy memories from this! One of the best classics! You can already see how house was branching out and getting influence from other types of music. Right from the get go you knew house was something special!

[6robski8]

@Cromeus Yeeeah man, everybody loves this tune. ;)

[jldawson71]

@6robski8 wot a tune, been listening to ur collection great sounds, fond memories and appy times, thanx....

im lookin at bringing me old tunes down from loft and gettin a usb turntable as me 1210's have long gone.

[6robski8]

@jldawson71 cheers mate, always good to know I'm hitting the spot. If you do ever drag those tunes out and you want to do some uploads give me a shout and I'll tell you how to stay out of trouble with the copyrights... you could always pick up some turntables though and give us a mix.... 'appy days!

[Brookfurlong]

Takes me back to my first magical weeks of the scene. never bettered.

[Dogmancer]

[elr0314]

[FLANDERN59]

pyramide discotheque 1989 !!!

[ceasar1216]

Its a shame that in today's day and age you cant really go anywhere and experience the sound of genuine quality house music like this. This younger generation is lost,its up to us to show them the way. There is still hope....

[J77147]

Love This, xxxx

[gary7145]

[deanandkaz]

What an amazing time in my life - I always said being 19 was the best year of my life and all I need to do is close my eyes and listen to this track and my heart and soul is right back there.... The underground clubs... huge dance parties, inovative fashion... I've never experienced anything like it... without sounding old...today's 19 year olds have no f@#$ing idea just what an amazing time they missed out on.

[getbakedtonight]

@deanandkaz lol innovative fashion as in rockin jumpsuits because youre too high off mdma :D

[Discovios]

[gooboo1000]
