OMG!!!!! This is a song that I have been DYING to find!!!! I once went on a disco forum and asked about it,but nobody knew what I was talkin' about!!! lol I descibed it as an instrumental disco song with alot of female backing vocals on it ("ahhh ahhhh ahhhhh").

Oh Finess,you are THE MAN!!! thumbs up! lol Thank you,thank you,thank you!!!!

I just ordered two of his CDs:

'World Without Words' (1976,Salsoul Records)

'The Sensual Sound of Spring Rain' (1977,Salsoul Records)



Apparently,the second album contains a longer version of "Spring Rain" remixed by Tom Moulton.The first album contains a shorter,edited version of the song.Both CDs were remastered in 2006.

Finess,are there any other albums by him that I should look for? wink

Bebu's tenure with Salsoul I do believe was his best work. These are the 2 albums I only know of actually

Ok,so I got both CDs in the mail yesterday.I decided that I like the second album better.It contains a longer version of "Spring Rain" and it even includes a bonus radio edit of that song.The entire second album was mixed by Tom Moulton so it's much more disco-sounding than the first album (which features alot of slower grooves).
