I’m 26 years old and I grew up listening to WBLS and KISSFM. First time I heard this was when Ruben Toro played this on Kiss Club Classics. Major Record right here! And my girl is from Chitown so I listened to mixes from WBMX and WGCI. I know all about how they used to put it down too! Respect all the way!
When Farley Keith spun this the 1st night I damn near cried! Couldn't believe the way this soothed the soul! He had the acapella pumpin' in CHI CITY EARLY '83!!!! ❤
Man! Woke up with this song in my head. Had to come and listen to it here. Great song from the early 80s. I remember my brother traveled on one of his many trips to N.Y. and on his return he had this on a cassette that he recorded from WBLS. Loved this song upon first hearing it and it still gives me that feel good vibe hearing it again.
I have always this now an 80s UK Soul funk classic by the brilliant David Joseph You can't hide your love from me very popular in The USA in the night clubs Even in 2024 this will always be a classic 80s UK Soul funk classic If it moves funk it
I was 13 when i heard this and i fell in love with music...Thank you David Joseph.. Dtrain Williams...Lisa lisa and cult jam...Grandmaster flash....Man parish....Roxanne Shante....i could go on and on ...
I'm a 2000s kid with an old soul & 80s music still TOPS today's music 🎶 !! This music you can dance to , sing , move without needing a style or worrying of being judged .
I absolutely love that , I’m a 70s baby , this was before my time , but I had exactly the same journey as you , discovering back catalogues , I honestly believe it happens every generation , difference being I got my education in record boutiques , steaming services and RUclips have made it a much faster and cheaper process , you have so may undiscovered gems heading to you
I don’t know if I can find the words to explain how amazing this track is. Every single second from the intro, the bass, the groove, the vocals are PERFECTION.
Tyrone Singh we can still hear the music at least I like the mystery of the 80s, sounds like and awesome time! Glad you made it through the golden age Tyrone 🤘🏻I’m 21 and this music just feels right
I remember the first time I heard this and I thought to myself, I don’t think I’ll ever get sick of hearing this song. I don’t think I’ll ever stop dancing to it. It was better than Michael Jackson and anybody else. In fact, none of them came close with a voice like this guy, David Joseph, you changed my dance moves… “Jazz Funk“… No just great timeless, forever, music, effortlessly, done… For those who agree… Say “we want Leroy”… “GREATNESS “.., I rest my case
Club Zanzibar.....the light show was enormous how the sound and the lights worked together. I loved watching my girl move her stuff to this.....Such a good groove. Music was so incredibly awesome...my mind id blown listening to this. Thanks soo much for this download
Thank you for reuploading this. It was taken down all over YT due to copyright. My reupload from Dailymotion is still blocked. Not to mention this is the superior version, the version which bl00dwave used years ago. Party hardy yeah!
still sounds as good as it did all those years ago, right up there with the few tracks that have stood the test of time, the ones you always find yourself going back to.. always makes me dance and smile.. david joseph thank you for some f**king good music
I Heard this good song in a music mix and spend time trying to search for it, I couldn’t find it. Until I discover Shazam the technology to find it, I definitely heard this jam at Fun House NYC and Broadway 96.
Hearing that bass at joes golden door, dance floor crowed with beautiful women ..listening to dj's non stop pop rock an dj raheem..those were the days. You can't beat the 80's 🔥🔥🔥🔥
There were 3 NYC stations that mixed this up in the 80's, WKTU, WBLS and KISS FM. We'll never get those days back again but at least I knew good music when I hear it. Today's new music is all garbage.
I get the feeling that David Joseph doesn't like to be played on the internet. everytime it ssys 'not available'. new york server plays it. thanks. I love it. falset and gunk groove is the best.
A beautiful old school amazing funky soul vibe, that even If you were on your own you'd be dancing by yourself. the feel to this tune Is amazing and It really will last forever.
Sometimes it is just simple in life. Falling in love,getting worked up when your fav footie teams scores against Liverpool..so on. This is one of those very rare moments. This is simply the best dance tune ever written,produced and performed ever. You´ll all listening to the zenit of the music industry. The best that ever was..and it is going downhill. 40 plus years,still just pumping away. You gotta givit to Mr Joseph. It never got better than this. The Mount Everest of singles.
Oh yess , have this and few other great British RnB from the early 1980s 👌🎶😎 Baggars and co , lynx , freeze (southern freeze) ,Real thing ( can you feel the force ) , , ...etc . 🕺🎹🎼🕺
YUL David Joseph. Massive fan of your Brit Funk or may I say London Funk. North of the river I think. You don't remember me from the Cat's whiskers or the later Studio in Streatham, Yeah South London!! I managed to grab your attention back stage and kindly ask you if you waa prepared to come over to the studio of Radio Invicta in.Mitcham and god bless you and your Band Hi Tensión, without any hesitation you gave me your land line and Wow it happened. Nice memories for me and also behind the music is a lovely gentleman. If you ever get to read this review, then God bless you Sir.
YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAH BUDDY. Don't judge me. I spent my entire 20s in the clubs, so these are my memories. So glad I jumped at the chance to be young and free when I was young and free! The party was off the chain!!!
He'll yea ain't never gonna be nothing like this music ever I'm making sure they play this at my freekin funeral and when they lowering me in the ground then they go eat bracciole sandwiches and sausage and peppers at the repast dinner
I don't know who dreamt up this base but I can tell u i am feeling ut full force and frontal and I have never lived one day in London. It is 100% deep down home African...needs no introduction!
I love old school music! Music takes you way back! Back in the day! They don't played this type of music no more! At the end of the day, no one can not stop funk music!
thanks I havent heard this track since 83. I was on my way from Fort Dix NJ headed to Hamburg Germany. I was a big hit on the East Coast in the early 80s. Couldn't get in Studio 54 so off to the Roxys we went Army dress uniforms and all. (good thing my buddy was from crown heights Brooklyn) Zanzibar in Newark was a nice club too.
Rayford Hickman Yo brother I hear you all the way! I was stationed at Herzo base Germany just outside of Nuerenberg at the same time. My Army buddies from NYC got me hipped to this and still remember it to this day. What great times, originally from Southern California. Keep it marching!
Where have years gone guys ? What a tune and still is 2024 ❤
Old school takes me back
Black American music and English Bands were my thing as a House DJ in 80's. This is dedicated to those gone not forgotten. MAC RUK DIE DING JA

b zanon 80'funk
@@MsCharlieBrown78 ....Mmm - 70's and '80's were great eras for music ...... but so were the '60's.
@TheSoulTwins the 60s music has no beat ( instruments), but their lyrics are definitely better .
70s disco though to mid 80s was some of the best.
This right here,,No matter what year you live in past present and future,,, this will never ever gets old ...
When God Rested On The Seventh Day He Was Blasting Disco Music. Bring Back Disco!!!

Goose pimples all over with this happy go lucky, wicked dance tune. So many memories. Still pump it to this day!!!!!

Heavy tune! They can't make them like this anymore!!
I got thus when it originally came out, still fresh and was ground breaking in its format for me, lots of cross over that's still being used today
'83 was a good year for music....and clubbing all night...

You gotta givit to Mr Joseph.

The Mount Everest of singles.
This was my all time favourite dance track of the 80's.
Got my 71 year old mum skanking out to this tune right now.
Been off work since Nov 8th
with a fractured tibia - this has got me pecker up!
Chord progression and groove reminded me of Treasure and Baby I’m Yours at first
Out of all my years of dancing in the Garage, this is my absolute favorite record to dance to!
It sounded sooooooooooo goood in there too....well, everything sounded GOOD in the Garage!!!!!!
