Some of the greatest groove ever made, and I'm a 58 year old white dude who grew up with this along with all the other greatest music created in history. There will never be another time in music like there was from the mid to late 60's up to around 1988 or so!! Not possible to happen again in history!! Every music genre back then was pure fire!!!

Jerry Knight is singing the main lead vocal on this track. He later had a hit of his own in the duo "Oliie & Jerry" with the song " Breakin'...There's No Stopping Us " from the "Breakin" soundtrack. You can also find some of Jerry's solo tunes here on KZbin. Great singer and you're right, he killed it!

April 1978, Suffolk, England, I'm 16 and just arrived at a new boarding school, and this song is playing all the time on the radio. The harmonies and falsettos sent shivers down my spine back then and still do. Every time I hear it, even today, I am transported back to my teenage self: a bit dazed and confused but full of emotion, excitement and hope! Love the virtuosity, the dance moves and the way the band smiles all the time!
