[cdyounger13]

I have been looking for this song, along with a number of 70's dance records and when I saw it and heard it posted I was enthused. If you listen to the lyrics coupled with the hook from BT Express, It just brings back some great memories. If anyone can post Love the Life you Live by Kool and the Gang or BlackHeat, I'd appreciate it.

[mrstep2me]

WOW! This takes me waaaaay back.
