The Raes - A Little Lovin' (Keeps The Doctor Away) 12"

Paolo Amato Collection

[@thomasfranco5997]

OMG! the first time I heard this song, I was on vacation in Mexico City with some friends and went to a restaurant and they played this song. When I flew back to Los Angeles, we got off the plane and went straight to Hollywood to a club called CIRCUS DISCO. This song was playing, and the dance floor became a floor filler. 67 years old now and both friends are no longer here. Great Memories Though, Miss them very much.

[@crb9459]

Agreed this song is great. Your friends will live on in the memories you have ❤

That's good way to put it, yeah.

[@glennkollman8285]

That's for sure. If you liked disco at all, how could you not move or like this song? Don't know why it didn't go higher on the charts. Still sounds great to this old guy.

You are absolutely right to me this is a Disco Classic

[@19gregske55]

And, they were Canadian!

On KZbin, everything is underrated.

[@johnelwell817]

Saw this on Dance Fever with Denny Terrio back in the 70's and loved it. Seemed like such a great era to be a live and just 20 years old.

[@heatherapastore7352]

I was 5 in ‘79 and disco dancing alongside my then 19 year old godmother.

[@louiscaruso4167]

Years ago Denny Terrio was at a Disco I was at, he was dancing with a friend of mine, the man has got the moves, lots of fun and great memories...

It is one of the few songs of the Discothéque genre that gets me out of my chair to dance to it.

I agree w John K. below. I was always out at the discos in mid and late 70's loving disco music. But I never remember this song. It is FANTASTIC!! Wow! When is disco music coming back? Nothing since even compares to it!! I'm a fanatical workout freak and I do all my workouts here at home to disco music.

[@arnoldgamboa5106]

OMG!!! This transported me back to my younger "disco" years!! How I danced the swing with my friends. This is the magic of music - - no matter how sad you are, you suddenly forget your worries the moment you hear your favorite music! Love it!

[@marioocampo6218]

Exacto no se le compara esta music disco es lo mas bello.

[@djfil726]

I hate when gems like this are ignored on Disco's Best lists. Instead they include almost un-dancable hits like Last Dance (Last Chance For Love) among others. If you were seriously out there on the floor, you didn't want this tune to end.

[@richardwatson1903]

Great point!

[@chazzjazz6906]

Totally agree! This was a great dance tune, not to be ignored! 👍

[@glennkollman8285]

Probably my favorite disco song. Extended version really makes this feel good song even better. Only 1 real hit for the Raes but this is the best. I know a lot of people hated disco but I'd take it any day over rap. God knows we need more positive tunes these days.

[@captainkeyboard1007]

Me, too. I would endure disco music better than rap, hip-hop and today's "R&B" music. In fact, I believe that disco music was the last best music ever produced.

[@FRADAVE02]

Definitely in my top five, along with Johnny Mathis (Begin the Beguin) and Esther Phillips (Stormy Weather). All of them are pure Disco Magic!

[@moorlock2003]

“Don’t Turn Around” was an even bigger hit in New York.

[@moorlock2003]

People who don’t like Disco have two left feet and tin ears. The best songs such as “Don’t Turn Around” still sound so fresh and lively 40+ years later.

[@moorlock2003]

@@FRADAVE02 I love Begin the Beguine too. I tear up when he sings “It brings back a memory evergreen”. My partner Eric was a great hustle dancer and that song so reminds me of him. He passed away a year and a half ago. I play Disco music a lot now to honor his memory.

[@bdgriz8603]

This is one of many club songs that cleared the dance floor of tourists and let the rest of us show y'all how it got done. Along with several other pure dance tunes you could really, really dance to this. "Love is in the Air" (Paul Young (?)) is another. I have the 12" single--but You Tube is the only place I've found on the web you can listen.

This song made me late for class one day. LOL We had a Bagels store up the block from my school. So me and my friend decided to run there between classes, grab a Bagel, then run back for our next class. This song came on the radio at the store and I wasn't leaving until it was over, then we ran back to school in the rain. Was late for class and soaking wet. 😨
