    • @adamnonex6001
      @adamnonex6001 9 лет назад +4

      Adrianne Parker Rucker As far as I can tell, it came out in March as a single and later as an album track. “Reach Out, I'll Be There” by Gloria Gaynor and “Hi-Jack” [or “Hijack”] by Herbie Mann came out in January, as did the single version of “Express” by B.T. Express. Of course, there were a lot of disco songs in 1974, and arguably a few in 1973. (My candidate for first disco song would be “Armed and Extremely Dangerous” by First Choice, Feb 1973.)

    Joe's 8th top 40 hit in seven years. This one reached #8 and has a great melody. Mainstream oldies radio never plays this one like so many others. They leave so many off their playlist to play the "same old stuff". This would bring back the memories of the listeners.
