This was the sho-nuff jam of 1981. Give it up.

classic early 80 dance jam D-train put quite a few nice records out back then

You have a thing for trains today?

Any plan on celebrating your 7777th post?

a great Track Mixed by Shep Pettibone and Hubert Eaves III

Few songs instantly transport me back 2 that time like this song. I love it lots.

Love it.

Damn, when the DJ spun this record before the Tamar/Prince show here in NYC, I was like "awww hell--make some room, I gotta dance!"

the keyboard break (by hubert eaves III) on this cut is cold-blooded

this is some serious shit right here...real music

I woulda went home after that...no way is Tamar qualified to follow D-Train.

yeah it is, him and shep worked this record. there was even a UK mix by Paul hardcastle.

This entire LP is just gorgeous...it so epitomizes the beauty of NYC dance/funk/r&b from 78-83...just an incredible period musically...very special to me.

"Lucky Day" on this album is inbcredible.... major props to Patrick Adams at Prelude records.

You guys are making me dig into the record crates this weekend.

Graycap23 said:

if you have it dig out "Come let me love you" by Jeanette Lady Day on Prelude.

Yes, I have a white label 12" of "come let me love you"...the instrumental is sick...lots of extra percussion on it.

What a time for music!

yuuuuup, another great piece of work by Francois Kervorkian.

With the love I have inside of me, we could turn this mother out.....

What great memories that song brings back. First time I ever danced with my best friend at a gay bar on the North side of Chicago. Reminds me of one of the reasons I love him. I can't drag too many straight guys out with me. He's a loving free spirit.

damn this song is hott

Romera said:

ummmm it's "with the love i have inside of me, we can turn this world around"

dont forget "keep on","music"."somethings on your mind"."keep giving me love"
and "walk on by".....

WERD !

"Music" is even a slight tighter ( imo )
The tingly-piano intro by Hubert Eaves , III , and James D-Train Willliams' harmonised voxes over that ...
... what follows then is some powervibe with solid hooks by the band .
Check the maxi-single version to be totally overwhelmed .

James Williams made a few years back an appearance on Bob Sinclair's club-track " Darlin' " .
Recently , James has performed many times in different European countries
and is about to play a gig next month in the UK :

I thought the words were, ". . .we could turn this world around". Whatever, I just put the CD in and I'm !

Great stuff.... imagine what it would sound like if Francois K did the remix.
...Keep On still does it for me. Timeless remix.

I LOOOOOVE this song. I can play this song over and over again and not get tired of it. They will never make pure funk like this again. Thank goodness for the memories (and compilation CD's!). It's still pure heat!

I love this song! It reminds me of Northland Roller Rink on W 8 Mile in Detroit.
