Heard this song on a Carolina beach music radio show back in 1985. Great for shagging--the dance that is. Thanks to the beach people for keeping old-school R&B and soul music bubbling on the Southeast Coast!!

In more ways than one, Jackie Ross was ahead of her time with her unique vocal presentation, as exemplified on songs like "Wasting Time." Her voice had a soulful purity, which played well against pop sensibilities. Jackie could exude innocence---coupled with strength; a unique combination that, lucky for us, gave us many wonderful tracks. Thanks for posting!
Girl, you look & sound great. Wow.
