LEVEL 42 LOVE GAMES 12 INCH VERSION

[@stephenthomas35]

I was stationed in the UK while serving in the US Air Force in the 80s and I couldn't get enough of British music groups. Level 42 was at the very top!

[@6604donny]

a timeless music, with a remarkable games of bass! with a funky jazz style.. the first time I listen to that music was to the Queen, a night club in Riemst-Vronhoven (Belgium); every saturday was a joyful time when at 3-4 o'clock in the moorning the dj played this song, waw; its simply a great song in a great time of youthness for me! when I remember the 80's music era, I could pour some tears..

[@boomfield]

i heard Love Games and Starchild (33 extended) on my way to the band room, i was a funk addict minutes later. I watched two gigs months later, little crowd like 300 people and they played their feekin asses to the ground. Level 42 influenced my live, it's a fact. Funk on people, peace..

[@nervo6321]

Level 42 set the bar very high with this track...

[@Rinusj1]

the one song thats is actually famous for this 12 inch edition

[@funkyswede62]

This will always be my favorite Level 42 song (sorry "Starchild"). That bass had me from day one. I got that LP in 1982 and have never stopped playing their music since. Timeless music if you ask me!

[@DrunkenPostie]

funkyswede62 Same here. This was their true 'Britfunk' track. Loved 'em but they lost me with World Machine. This, and Sandstorm, I could listen to forever. And Kansas City Milkman. And....

[@DrunkenPostie]

funkyswede62 check out Mark's work on a track called 'A way you'll never be' by Leisure Process, a band from the same era.

[@Adidasfighter2006]

Mark King the King of Bass Guitar....!

[@thedetectorist]

80's please come back...... take me back in time

[@antblue363]

i said it over and over again and again 1981 was the best year ever for music.mtv came out and disco and funk on and on

[@1234TIMMER4321]

Lucky. i would love to see mark king play from 4 feet away. i wasnt born until 87 so i only discovered level 42 a few years ago. this song is fun to play along to

[@jonhorner5198]

Jazz Funk, foot tapping, leg moving, class. Still one of the best funk bands.

[@stuartadkins4493]

Love level 42. Followed them every were . and still try to..and all started with star child. Wot a song. Keep on going mark and mic

[@videoreff]

I haven't heard this track since the early 80's, still sounds great. Just checked on wiki, incredibly Love Games only got up to number 38 in the charts! Way under-rated band.

[@TheRecremisi]

one of the best songs of 80ies...i remember the time of the Much more in Rome...i like it...

[@marksurtees1906]

My no1 song and lp. Saw them in 2014, still brilliant

[@antoniocesiro5480]

i level 42 hanno fatto di buono nell'arco degli anni io come fan del gruppo vedendoli dal vivo ad'un corceto dell'estate del 1986 in liguria mi piacciono tutti i loro repertori.

[@zagortenay114]

Corceto. .....d'estate?.......cos'e' la sagra del marrone?😉

[@paulg1886]

Top quality, these guys were so good live.

[@kenialopezvallejos8863]

[@steveakk]

i remember listening to this for the first time and hearing the seperation of the symbols/clap half way through into my speakers(left to right and back again) awesome , funk at its best

[@gdgopaul]

When they were part of the British Jazz Funk movement - Great, Great times...

[@AntWestgarth]

Britfunk at its best and classiest, cant't wait for another tour.

[@ollybeat]

Skagirl42- surely a misnomer with a quasi two-tone connection? Yep- got the 12" t5o amongst many other 42 tracks and thanks for posting. Plus also the sad Walkerprint (signed I hasten to add!) piccy too! Prob not worth much these days of pop rubbish! keep em comin'. You can never put a good tune down!

[@antoniocesiro4578]

Quanti bei ricordi su questa canzone Love Games dei Level 42 gruppo che aveva iniziato la prima parte della carriera coin svariati singoli di successo come Somenthing about You che nella versione mix aveva venduto molto negli anni gli album di Esordio come l'omonimo Level 42 uscito nel 1980 con questo singolo disco mix di debutto inciso dall'etichetta discografica Polydor fino al 1994 l'anno dello scioglimento basti pensare a vari cambiamenti di Formazione rimanendo il cantante Mark King alla voce e Michael Lindup alla Tastiera e voce e gli adii dal gruppo di Philip Goold alla Batteria e il compianto Steven Goold alla chitarra elettrica avvenuto nel 1988 e la sua morte del fondatore avvenuto nel 2019 alla tenera età di 65 anni i level 42 hanno cercato di ricostruire le stesse sonorità di una volta le varie antologie pubblicate e un ep sono un biglietto da visita di un genere che ha sempre piaciuto.grazie Da Antonio Cesiro da Genova

Skagirl, anything out there as far as remixes go, with "Kansas City Milkman"? That's my fave Level 42 track of all time. Even the studio version would be nice to hear :)

[@thefourthfunkateer]

Skagirl42 thanks for posting this 12 inch , I only have the Album version. How come you have this in your collection, its a bit different to 2tone and Ska. Mind you, I have the original 7" Prince Buster's 'Al Capone' bw 'One Step Beyond' on Blue Beat label .
