All three are excellent versions. First time i've heard of
Lezli Valentine and it is great. I'd give the Moments the
edge by a nose but all three are great versions and you rarely
find that.

This funk is a serious joint

It actually was recorded cheaply in Sylvia Robinsons basment studio. It was unfinished at the time. I believe there was a dealine that they had to make so it was rushed. I believe thats why the verses go on so long.

I believe the Moments original was the best verson. No one can out do the Moments. Not even the Delfonics at the time to me.

My preferred version is the one by the Moments. Male soul vocal groups are my weakness smile
