    One of my best records EVER. The music and singing is perfect. A true MASTERPIECE. You just don't get records like this no more.

    September 2022 and it STILL sounds fresh and new, like 1982 all over again! 😍❤️ West End had a helluva run with the artists and songs on their label. They raised the bar for quality songs during that era. Respect!

    I remember recording this off whov radio. In Hampton va as a little boy and leave on record and run outside and play. While it was taping at grandmoms house in newport news va what fun it was a fresh tape of electro hip hop and rare dance they use mix in late nights and the afternoon

      We'll never forget these days of early 80s funk, I was 10/11 around the time this 1st came out, but remember hearing it on Robbie Vincent's Sound of Sunday night program, the good days before things really changed.....
