This is one of my favorites by Ray Parker Jr. and Raydio. Funky as hell! Give it up.

So true.I dig his music but alot of times,he blatantly borrowed from other songs.There's the whole "Ghostbusters" lawsuit,where he was accused of stealing from Huey and Lewis and The News' song "I Want A New Drug".His 1983 hit "I Still Can't Get Over Loving You" was obviously inspired by the Police's "Every Breath You Take"...it even includes a line stolen directly from that song ("every breath you take,girl...I'll be watching you")....some folks think that his 1987 hit "I Don't Think That Man Should Sleep Alone" sounds alot like Patti Austin's 1986 hit "The Heat Of Heat".
