...OMG...I remember this jam...I lived in L.A. and when this came out I just got a job downtown at a call center...downtown wasn't far from Mid-town, where W.O.W. (World On Wheels) was...KDAY had just begun its reign as the #1 R&B station in town and this is typical of what was on the playlist...and to think HH started out playing JAZZ!!! It just goes to show how versatile he could be...keep 'em coming fellahs!!!
ROLLER SKATING TUNE FOR SURE... Frankie Crocker 107.5 WBLS NYC
slammed this tune BIG TIME...Herbie is a LEGEND no doubt about that!
I close my eyes & i see tns of old school cats roller skating smiles for miles..
ahh that era in dance music life in general we will never witness again..everyone got along partied as 1 huge unit.. all colors got along...so happy i did not miss that bus ride @RollerSession thank you soo much for this time machine tune! Port!
Miami...Summer '79, Carol City, Opa-Locka, Liberty City...183rd**Big ups to Fungus, Rock Rock, Smash, Levi, Frog, Junior, Wayne and my love...Mitzie**smoke was thick!!
i'm 15... and most of the comments here reminiscing the 80's... i wasnt even born in 80's let alone i cant remember anything in 90's but i'm a popper.. and love this song... i'ma pop to this...
@spritedblue Woooah. Oops sorry :P. I never realy bother looking at the time of post I allways hink because it's the newest it's new... I'm from U.K btw and still looking for poppers around my city.
This track 30+ years old and still sounds fresh. That alone says something about the quality of music back then. How I so wish my current generation can get back TO THIS LEVEL OF EXCELLENCE!!!
god damn... everytime i hear this song i feel like cruising in a convertible down a beach checking out the chicks... BUT I DONT HAVE A CONVERTIBLE FML... those of you who do tho.. please do the cruisn for meeeeee
yeah 79 was the year, i remember it well, a place called AM VET'S played it every night,we were popping and locking to this,the good ol days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
