    As a young Jamaican "party girl" back in the 70s, this was the "party done, go on home" song. DJs use to play it as the last song and everybody knew the party was over but nobody moved because boys and girls were "tight" holding each other "rocking" to this mind-blowing song. DJs had to turn on the lights to get us to leave. Eheh.😄😃😀. Those were fun times!

    In the 70's we were on Weekend Leave from Camp Pendelton (12) of us strong. We were at the Forum in L.A. waiting to get in to see EWF but the people at the door were holding everyone back for who knows what reason, but believe me their were Tons of People antsy and waiting in front of the door. Before you knew it, this Whole Mob of Fans Rushed the Doors and made their way in (no gun shots, no fighting, no nonsense) Just eager fans waiting to see EWF. I remember it like yesterday that the people at the door just raised their hands up in the air as if saying "the hell with it, let them in". We had a Blast that night for close to 2hrs and still up to this date I tell this story to anyone who cares to listen. What a beautiful time in life and the Music that encompassed that era as well and no other Era will ever be the same. Semper Fi all you Jarheads from that 70's Era, Before and After as well.

Music of the last decade is nothing but worthless overhyped studio generated 3 chord shit performed by talentless media products. I'm glad I was a teenager then, I feel sorry for the poor fuckers now.
