Still Love the Song Tom Browne was on a Roll back in the early 80's.funny how nowadays being a Hook Singer gets you much attention because the Sister than Song the Hook on"Jamaica Funk" would be Huge today if you used the current standards for back in the day?

The start of this song.,.. the bass line, the mindless chatter... the woman's voice... mmm, mmm, mmm.

"You know big tom browne? He is an ordinary guy!"

I still dig it.
