Yes, indeed, summer of 1981! This was killer stuff...Tiffany's, The Buck Stop Here, the Foxxtrappe...DC dancing when I couldn't make the trip up the Turnpike to get home to NY/NJ for the weekend...great times...And big thanks to DJ Greg Diggs at Tiffany's!!
I love this track its very unique,different from the norm,its steady driving funky & sweet, it is his funkiest track that I know of & it made me an instant Billy Ocean fan.
As a listener, dancer, and 24yrold dj i know a good bit about tony humphries and zanzi. if you got any garage tracks out of the ordinary to recommend on youtube put em down
@tyeweed420 YEAH KLUB ZANZIBAR WAS THE ULTIMATE KLUB IN JERSEY FOR PURE DANCING NEWARK, NJ "BRICK CITY", 430 BROAD STREET. THE GROUND WOULD BEAT OUTSIDE TO THE BEAT OF THE MUZIK!!!!!
Discolexic edits (it's a US label) just released a really cool edit of this track. It's kept to a real late night groove that stretches the deep elements of the original. I've yet to start unloading to youtube, if I get around to it I'll stick it up.
Heard this song while I was at work this morning. I never really knew much of his earlier stuff before 1984, but this song is pretty tight!!

this was an 'extra' track on a 2nd 12'' Single Jive released on the bside of 'Loverboy' 12''
and this obv kept 'interest' dancefloorwise on the go
i read that on a radio station in america during a phone interview one caller threatened him on the air for taking the piss with his 'accent'
LOL
never heard a carribean/english accent
personally ive always love Mr.Oceans voice
just a pity he never kept the 'funky stuff' instead of going all AOR ish
Great singer all samme
gr8 remix btw
any more lol
