[cass2112]

@jackiemaree1 jackieos wiz mince full of posers...BENTLEYS was the place to be 5 bars,sunken dance floor and red stripe!!!!

[jackiemaree1]

[ambientdweller]

Timeless..

[fbencounter]

I think this was the first song I ever heard described as "Jazz-Funk"

[LongShlongify]

Quality tune I.O.U. was the first record I ever bought so now I know i'm old

[sortofsorted]

[ekg2006]

This here track changed the way I looked at music. What a change it was!!

[marshgatelaneposse]

[wookie4727]

Check out the New BEVERLEY KNIGHT version from her new album of classic uk soul covers "SOUL UK"..... AWESOME!!!!!!

[LMmccallL57]

Funkiness! :D

[Flapps100]

Farah trousers, cable stitch jumpers, blue adidas trainers, Grey Lonsdale T-shirt and wedge haircut!.....those were the days!..........seem so long ago but listen to this and the years just melt away!

[DaddyO161]

she needs to smile more!

[smalllove1]

@DaddyO161 Yeah, she could have put a bit more effort in. Haha

[goddess1luv]

I hate when this computer puts in words u don't spell!!! I meant they "cudda" as in could have gone further....damn gadgets!

[goddess1luv]

This group cuffs went further if the lead singer had some presence and attitude. How can U sing a song like that and not smile? But her vocals are perfect...balances out the funk of the music!

[TheSpaghettihoop]

Yes, this is what you call "DANCE MUSIC" Ah memories.

[cuue1]

wow! forgot how good this was. Brings back great memories!

[AfroBlaxion]

30 years old and still sounds quality

[purehead]

people everywhere doing the southern freeze,good memories..

[QUEENAHIDEKINGFISHER]

BRILLIANT!GET THIS BAND TOGETHER,AND TOUR ENGLAND!USA DOES NOT APPRECIATE AS MUCH AS THE BRITS!

[jtnisbet]

absolute classic....still sounds great today,i,m glad nobody has remixed this in any way...............

[bobbitt187]

@jtnisbet John Rocca remixed it. southern freeze part 2. and its been sampled many times to !

[billywhizz250]

this can't be 30 years old - wow!! still sounds soooo fresh what happened to Freeze?? where is the talent now?

[bluewithoutyou]

Today they are deprived .. This is music ,singing .. FACT ...Love it

[loulou301181]

They don't make them like they used to!

[MYFranciacortaTV]

... WOW !!

[videoreff]

This is one of those rare songs - still sticks in my mind all these years later.

Brings me back to the days when I was a teenager with dreams.

[ProductionD3]

+111,291.009 !!!!!!

[kevpofcpfc]

Who ever disliked this tune needs to seriously go and see a music doctor.

[slapmyfunkybass]

british jazz funk at its best

[JP1971Hammer]

this tune just grows and grows, as good now as it was back in the day

[MrFunnyali1]

brings back the old time love it

[80s4ever63]

mmmm........Love this!! The Brit Funk Wave of the late 70's early 80's was magnificent. Lot of those groups got their inspiration from American Soul and Funk Groups. Ya'll remember T. S. Monk (of Bon Bon Vie fame) and his legendary father Felonious Monk? Classic examples of American Jazz/Funk. Long live the 80's

[maznat24]

vastly underated record and group.whatever happened to freeze?

[jeaniebthe1]

@maznat24 I'm friends with Ingrid Mansfield-Allman (singer) and Paul Morgan (drummer) they still work, mainly on the North London jazz scene as do I...

[khaz042]

@jeaniebthe1 Hi, I'm a huge fan of the Southern Freeez lp. I think Pauls Drumming is amazing on it. Peter Mass on bass is brilliant too. In fact they made me take up the drums and bass. I saw Ingrid at the Brit Funk reunion @Jazz Cafe. Is there somewhere on the web that I can see what Paul is up to? I would love to hear him play

[Mr12sean34]

now this is CINDY,S nightclub for me (good day,s)

[vibravibra]

THIS IS AMAZING!!! WISH I CAN CLUB TO THIS SONG NOT LIKE CRAPPY MUSIC NOW.

they look like they're on acid <3

[vipmebim]

Just a wonderful tune.

[JulieHollister]

Starchil Level 42 is my all time fav....sadly haven't seen it live for 3 months nearly and am getting anxious to see it again soon!!!!

[sortofsorted]

tmemories are made of this...

[daveebble123]

[MISSION315]

xxxxx much love to you

[bonbonne100]

BRILLIANT TUNE THE OLD ONES ARE THE BEST FANTASTIC MEMORIES

[shortandstylish]

I was 11 and just getting into music ... early 80's grooves were so fantastic!!!

[MrLeebo123]

BETTER THEN THE CRAP THEY CALL BLACK MUSIC THESE DAYS!!!

[maccagrabme]

@MrLeebo123 I couldn't agree more, just where is black music today, in particular the UK scene? I loved this as soon as I first heard it on top of the pops and ever since realised that jazz and funk were part of my dna. Absolutely love that synth sweep too, works perfectly.

[shegotmeon]

Gwan Aunty Ingrid :-D xxx

[denallman1]

that's my sister singing lead....myself, my twin sister and one of my brother's were lucky enough to do this song with her (backing vocals and dancing) on a mini tour in the late 80's on the Steve Walsh circuit in London....Good times!....

[Procharmo]

@denallman1 Well If you remember Steve you'll remember " You What You What You What" When he played "I found lovin2!!!!

[BIGSOULMAN1]

[0066bond]

[blackers61]

This is a monster...! Thank you so much for making it part of my life again.

[Iansfavmusic]

Ahhhh! Listening to Robbie Vincent on BBC Radio London, Greg Edwards on Capital, dancin at Lords of Ilford, TOTS in 'Sarfend' - fantastic song. I know some of the 80's Brit Jazz/Funk doesn't sound too strong nowadays but this is just timeless. Hope Ingrid checks this out from time to time &, if she does, a massive vote of thanks for a part of the soundtrack to my youth! - IFM

[ChelseaAllTheWay13]

does she say like you very much or like your hairy crutch.......often wondered that. Answers on a postcard please....................to caister days gy norfolk.

[JohnLMcCoy]
