@pd4501771 Thanks for the notice and will try to attend. Sounds like alot of fun!

This version is much better than the original and this is the version radio stations played when this song came out. The original is slower and not as much bass and keyboards. U.S. radio stations have a habit of ususally playing remix versions of songs from overseas artists than their original...

Interesting how it has the upgraded headlights and MCI name plate like the 96 and 102 models but has the standard factory tailights.. Nice looking dash 9.

@Megajanitor I agree and many people were unaware of the groups I will mention were ethnically mixed groups, when music really was music compared to dog crap on radio today. KC and the Sunshine Band, Heatwave, Sly and the Family Stone, Gary's Gang, Doobie Brothers, MFSB, and the Dazz Band to nam...

I'm guesing that the bus has the 6v92 in it? Seems to be quiet as the 8v71 are louder inside. What year is it and is it an ex Greyhound? Nice countryside over there!

I remember when this tune when it came out summer of 1979 and loved it! Didn't know at the time that these ladies are suppose to be from the UK. I remember seeing the first Musique album and the women were white and with Musique 2, they are black.

@Deetroiter I agree it is a classic song for Michiganders being originally from Detroit myself. I remember when the ship went down late 1975 and was BIG news in the Detroit area since that's where the ship was built anyway. I was 11 years old and remember 1975 very well. Michigan shipwreck mu...

One of my top 5 favorite tunes by any artist, is this one, I remember when this came out summer of '75. I was 11 years a old and nearly had a stroke the first time I heard it. Disco is the ONLY type of music that brought whites and blacks together; not just in the discos but in the recording s...

@detroitkid33 I am from Detroit originally as well and live in South Bend, IN and you're right; most idiots who put Detroit down never been there when actually most of the city is nice. There are about three areas in Detroit which are run down and seemed to be the most filmed for giving the impr...

My alma mater Central Michigan had two of these but were stripped down-no frills versions with 4 speed manuals. I rode on one and didn't have the 8v71 but do believe they both had 6v71 instead. CMU had them numbered 5 and 6 and had a MCI-9 with 5 speed manual and was number 7. Number 5 was sol...

Had the 8v71 in it. That's for sure.

An MCI -9 with the 8v71 and automatic. My favorite.

I'll rode one of these not long ago and they're ok. Still can't beat the sound of the Detroit 8v71.

I can tell by the sound it has the 6v92 in it. Nice looking dash 9.

Must be an early 1980 dash 9 as by the time fall of that year rolled around dash 9's were coming with the 6v92 and judging by the photo, bus looks like an ex- Greyhound. Cant beat the sound of the 8v71. Whoever is driving seems to be driving the engine hard and trying to drive it like it has ma...

Sounds like the 6v92 and bus has 96A or 102A fender trim.

Nothing beats an old mc-7, 8, or 9. They have personality and sounded like a bus especially with the 8v71. They look great, especially the dash 9 which is my favorite MCI model. Today's buses do nothing for me as far as looks and sound and the same for big rigs which I driven for a living. Im ...

Very nice dash 7 and seems to be in really good shape. While I like the dash 9 the most of all the models MCI made, still can't beat the dash 6, 7, and 8's. There's a small college near me and they had a dash 7 with automatic in it. Obviously it was retrofitted with it since 4 speeds were sta...

Very nice looking dash 8.

No doubt that has the 6v92 in it which is typical for most dash 9's built after 1980.

@Crystasorrow Not all rap is bad. Actually old school rap when rap first came out back in the early 80's is really good and nothing compared to the crap you hear today. Old rap when it first started was about having fun and partying. Today, its about killing, drugs, hard life in the hood and h...

Love this tune. First heard it on XM radio on one of the dance stations several years ago. Hard to find on cd and wish it can be downloaded here like many other songs now on Youtube.

I'll take the 8v71 anyday over the 6v92 for the two reasons; more power and the can't beat the louder sound. Another thing is I prefer automatic over manual for the simple fact of better fuel economy and better acceleration. Manual (not matter how fast you shift) takes too damn long building u...

@tommyheddenstomboy You're right that they have been together since the 1960's and were actually a folk/bluegrass band at first. To me their best music is during the disco era. Whats sad is the last two surviving brothers don't speak to each other and the other two (Maurice and Andy) are gone. ...

@jonneyd I love disco too and funny how Rod Stewart put down disco music but this is his second biggest hit behind "Maggie May".

@kingzbabi This song and most songs that the Gap Band ( from Tulsa, OK) came out with as well of other groups of the 70's and 80's beats the bulls*** you hear today on radio and I am speaking for myself by the way.

I wonder what happened to the Wilson brothers who came out with same damn good music during the early 80's; three brothers from Tulsa, OK . I was in high school when these guys were in their hey day years and came out with great funk music. This tune is my favorite tune by them.
