ONE OF MY FAVORITES!! music

I've always love the vibe and feel of this tune! Winners is such a great album. George learned a lot from Q.

The Toto/Bros.Johnson track "In The Way" is always in heavy rotation here!

It's a superb album nod my favorite tracks are "The Real Thing","Dancin Free","I Want You" and "Do It For Love".The brothers really branch out on this album,venturing into pop and even rock on a few tracks.

The remaster from Big Break Records is incredible.It not only includes the entire Winners album,it also features the four "new" tracks from 1982's Blast! compilation,plus a rare B-Side ("Echoes Of An Era").Highly recommended!

speaking of "I Want You"....I remember in the summer of '81,I saw a promo video for that song! I haven't seen it since and it's not on Youtube.Does anyone else remember it? That song was the B-side of "The Real Thing" single but I think it could have been a single in its own right.

It's so rare lol it's just a simple video of them on a stage,singing the song but I remember being very surprised by it,since the song wasn't a single.Haven't seen it since then!
