My parents use to run the album version all the time. Shit is still jammin'. RIP Nick Ashford in heaven all permed out looking like a soul singing black lion. Timeless music you did create.
WBLS IN NY 107.5 FM 1975-83, It gave all the residents in the tri-state area a touch of class, sophistication and an incomparable style. Shout out to Frankie Crocker, Ken Spider Webb, Va Higginson, Lamar Renee and Vaugh Harper.
What a great great great piece of work from the duo Ashford & Simpson. The big band and all. Brilliant!! Brilliant!! Brilliant!! It captures a place and time in NYC.
Oh man I forgot all about this one. Was reminiscing about NIck (and Val) and clicked on just to see what it was. I used play this to death back in the day. This one goes straight to my FAVORITES list. Thanks for posting it.
Great music.Lord I thank God I grew up in the greatest momments of soul music 60's/70's & 80's.Great Couple dedicated to each other to the end.May Nick Ashford R.I.P
rip nick the orchestration kills me Larry levan at garage would only play the instrumental...i am so weak right now..been playing all their songs all night luv them
This song was sampled in this housetrack: Banda Sonora - Guitarra g (G club mix) . Adds a funky guitar to the mix, check it out, it's good, but now after listening the original I'll say this one wins hands down! Much obliged for upping this gem :)
what a jam...arangement! groove, melody, they dont make them like this any more,glad to have been around when this was apart of my youth, stil love it , may be more!
@aaltoF1N It was released as a B-Side on UK 12" several years after it's popularity in 1977, when it was a club classic and had only previously been available as an album track.
Great music never remains just that. It never loses it's "ZING". This song is just as "Fresh" now in 2010 as it was 33yrs. ago in 1977. The orchestration is phenomenal ! Nick & Val are still smokin' after all these years.
OMG, love this!!!!!!!!
