Bobby Thurston is a Disco/Soul singer from Washington, D.C., Thurston started singing and playing congas with a group called Spectrum Ltd. in his high school years. He caught his break when writers/producers Willie Lester and Rodney Brown heard him sing live, and signed him as part of their attempt to forge a stable of artists in the vein of Philadelphia International.

I still play the orginal vinyl version and i still love it

[@jerrywissart6206]

Aww, you got what it takes baby! ❤. An absolute classic from one of the best dance labels ever.

[@phillipkali4438]

You Got What It Takes, absolutely phenomenal song.

THE MIGHTY, MYTHICAL CLUBHOUSE, WASHINGTON, D.C.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊

[@bobdavis4848]

Great album; I just danced to it this morning. Yay to Bobby Thurston and Prelude for persisting with the disco theme and lyrics despite the industry changes in 1980. Beautiful cover model.

[@brunoottina293]

What I may supposed to say ? A treasure. Rythm, instruments (violins especially), the bobby's voice. A master piece as a disco tune.

[@mariapazmartinez666]

Wuaooo que temazo 😍😍😍😍😍🔊🎼🎵🎶🎤🎧🎷🎸🎛️

[@albertocorrea7414]

Temazo ampliamente difundido en las mejores discoteques de Chile durante los inicios de los 80s.

REAL MUSIC FROM REAL MUSICIANS !! SHUTTTT!!

Brings back memories of my 13 year old self. 1980 was a great year for music.

[@patrickdyer430]

Couldn't agree more take me back to 1980 right now

[@masonqureshi5217]

Brings back memories of my 12 year old self (also listening to check out the groove) sitting in the back garden with my late parents, my siblings, including my oldest sister who passed away 2 weeks ago today! ♥️💔🎼 great memories though!🙏

[@robncarvalho]

What a treasure!

[@bernardruiz696]

Ce magnifique morceau de musique avec de très très grands musiciens de très haut niveau et bien-sûr la voix inoubliable très fine qui bizarrement ne correspond pas du tout à son physique est un génie qui m'avait fait dansé presque en trans Funky j'avais en 1980 23 ans et 43 ans après j'ai toujours les frissons et me donne envie de re danser ce morceau comme avant. Bobby est décédé trop jeune. RIP. Bernard dont j'ai maintenant 65 ans et très sensible encore à cette chanson et d'autres de lui..
