this track has completely captured the essence of the seventies living life and enjoying it with music having a huge influence couldnt wait to get to the record shop and listen to new arrivals or listen to soul spectrum capital radio saturday night.

This is one of the best disco songs (top 5 for sure) from the great 70s years, no doubt about it, it has evrything, power, vocals, strings, percussions, nice breaks, everything!, the 12" mix is one of my favs also, thanks for posting
