Ur bet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Phewwwwww............. Played the drums but .... this....... Level 42... same.... errrr. Greetz from Belgium. Keep it up grrrrrrrrrr
Definitely the coldest bass line ever. Remember hearing this for the first time in July 1979; my dad bought me a bass guitar that Christmas. I learned it note for note. This group, this song, this bass player, is the reason why I play bass. Period.
This is a great remix of the Slave classic.Slave is one of the best funk bands of all time who never got the recognition that they truly deserved.R.I.P.Mr Mark Adams,and Mark Drac Hicks.
To bad modern R & B does not sound as good as this. It's hard to believe that this song came out back in 1979, it still makes anyone want to get up and dance! Steve Arrington, Starleana Young, Floyd Miller, Carter Bradley, Steve Washington, and Tom Lockett Jr.. Last but not least Mark " The Hansolor" Adams (bass) and Mark "Drac" Hicks ( guitar). Rest In Peace, gone to soon. Thank you Paul Simpson for this mix and Halofreak 117 for posting eleven minutes of pleasure!!!!!!
This tune still sounds fresh as it did many years ago. I can say, positively, Slave will make you want to dance and enjoy yourself. Awesome times, enjoying this "FUNK BAND"!
Interesting info: Paul Simpson actually did this in 1994. I've seen the studio DAT that has this as well as his unreleased r&b and house remixes of Gwen McCrae's "Funky Sensation" and his remixes of Slave's "Watching You" which also has Terry Burrus on the keyboard. Amazing stuff.
That funky bassline is era defining, it pretty much set the benchmark for the genre. MFSB "Mysteries of the world" rustled up some of the tightest bass that I ever heard at about that time, insane instrumentals.
Omg this song brings me back to HS, happy memories... but makes me a bit sad too thinking of beloveds who have transitioned. RIP Dad Edward, Mom Jimmie Sue, and sister Sharon 🙏🏿
Bootsy is a super rubbery funk monster (in a splendid way), but Mark’s work on this track is also a definite GEM. The guitars (bass included) and drums on the original version absolutely COOK like a funk band who also knows how to ROCK. The boys in Chic considered themselves to be a “disco rock band”, and Slave definitely qualifies as well!
Unabashed dance floor-funk, with a such an in your face bassline that it steals the show from it's just a touch of innocence chorus. Put on your headphones and walk around the hood jammin' to this song and your view of the world will change, just a touch.
Who'd have thought you can take something already perfect and rocket it up even more- all the way to eleven! You did a remix that didn't radically change what we love, just gave us more of it in a new package- Excellent work!
AGREE 100% A good remix can make an already excellent track even better and on this one it really has, well done i remix too i love DJ ing mixing remixing is bad very bad love it.
What memories this song brings....standin' around with the bros', boom box chrome glistening in the streetlight.....the sound of pure funk echoing all around the quad....passin' the bone... Damn I miss those days..... But am forever blessed with the funk in my soul.... I will have my day in the next life....
The piano player is the legendary Terry Burrus, who has played piano on a ton of Frankie Knuckles / David Morales (Def Mix) productions and remixes. Terry is also the piano player on the classic "Funkin For Jamaica" by Tom Browne.
TB’s gift is that he knows when to go hard & then take it down in the right spots.He stays in his lane, & That’s the mark of a true journeyman. More musicians need to take heed. One love -two love- three love four , Damn It Man We Need More. ✌🏼
Just A Touch Of Love remix is so 🔥fire me and all my friends decide to move back all the furniture and so we would have an open in the middle of the living room floor so we can all get our 💃dance to theses funky tunes. The remix of Just A Touch Of Love by the group Slave is so 🔥fire we just couldn't resist we had to 💃dance to it. Later and peace and much love to master's who were responsible for creating such a master piece of dance music. Love Mr. 👑King Ecstacy🎇...
Wow! I kinda like this, doesn't take too much away from the original. Very smooth and clever. Definitely a backyard BBQ lawn filler. Beats per minute has obviously increased so make sure you stretch before you dance to this timeless track. The keyboards and high frequency inserts every 16 beats are a nice touch as well.
That bass line is killer Slave was no joke
Absolutely True!🎶💪🏿🎶
Ur bet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Phewwwwww............. Played the drums but .... this....... Level 42... same.... errrr. Greetz from Belgium. Keep it up grrrrrrrrrr
There is a Reason why they do NOT like playing Slave in Church.... LOL...... Why aren't they in the Music Hall Of Fame Yet!!!!!!
THE PIANO SOLO! THE PIANO SOLO!
Anything by Slave is a heavy hitter in my book Enjoying this version never heard this version before
True there. They were true musicians and very organized. Stevie Arrington led the way....
The Late Great Mark Adams on bass...true genius gone toooo soon...RIP...
Crazy Bass, Slave was definitely the best..
Whoever did this is Magic
Definitely the coldest bass line ever. Remember hearing this for the first time in July 1979; my dad bought me a bass guitar that Christmas. I learned it note for note. This group, this song, this bass player, is the reason why I play bass. Period.
That's the late great Mark Adams!☺

Slave is unique . The bass player was focus of alot of their songs dude was 🔥 and the heart beat of slave I listen to Slave everyday.
This is a great remix of the Slave classic.Slave is one of the best funk bands of all time who never got the recognition that they truly deserved.R.I.P.Mr Mark Adams,and Mark Drac Hicks.
It's that northern California vibe u know, back in the early 80's this was popular & us chicana's loved it 😚

The best group of the 80s.

You either got the funk in you or you don't to appreciate this jam.
Pure Nirvana
This album locked in the Slave sound with Steve Arrington.😁
R.I.P. Danny Webster, he passed today on Sept. 11, 2020. Gem City hometown talent!
RIP D.Webster
Incredible Musician
R.I.P. Mr. Webster
Sorry to hear that, didn’t know Danny Webster passed.
Dear millennials the message is that old school RULES!
Best bassline ever.
Shifting rhythms over that bassline with stacked vocals on top make this irresistible!
A major league, All-Star, Hall of Fame Classic!
Funk em up, funk em up, funk em up!❤ I can’t stop dancing in my driver’s seat. A DAMN GOOD REMIX!!!

Oh for sure! That Philly sound was insane indeed.
I'm much too old to dance like this. Thank YOU!
Fantastic piece of art. Well done. Bass line is UNTOUCHABLE.

JOSEPH PURNELL

The late Mark Adams killed it on that Bass, never heard a Bass played so funky before.
You'll like Bootsy Collins
Bootsy is a super rubbery funk monster (in a splendid way), but Mark’s work on this track is also a definite GEM. The guitars (bass included) and drums on the original version absolutely COOK like a funk band who also knows how to ROCK. The boys in Chic considered themselves to be a “disco rock band”, and Slave definitely qualifies as well!
Boogie Mosson. Parliament Funkadelic.
💪🏾
Bootsy’s work on Sir Nose was ridiculous I’m well versed. P-Funk
Forever funk classic! I like this remix because it's 11 mins.
RIP PEACE TO THE MARK'S BROTHERS=MARK HICKS AND MARK ADAMS
Fabulous and best by far! piano makes it perfect!
Unabashed dance floor-funk, with a such an in your face bassline that it steals the show from it's just a touch of innocence chorus. Put on your headphones and walk around the hood jammin' to this song and your view of the world will change, just a touch.
Saweeeeeet! Old School will always be the best! Totally Real Music! ')
Best "Just A Touch Of Love" mix I ever heard.
No
Who'd have thought you can take something already perfect and rocket it up even more- all the way to eleven! You did a remix that didn't radically change what we love, just gave us more of it in a new package- Excellent work!

This was the jam cruising down baseline great mix
Seeing them In concert while in high. Epic! Being from the Dayton Ohio area icing on the cake.

Jazzy Jeff brought me here 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Just AWESOME!!!!
I could drive non-stop to New York with Slave in my system, especially this smooth remix cut! Great job Mr. Simpson!!!!
Wow! I kinda like this, doesn't take too much away from the original. Very smooth and clever. Definitely a backyard BBQ lawn filler. Beats per minute has obviously increased so make sure you stretch before you dance to this timeless track. The keyboards and high frequency inserts every 16 beats are a nice touch as well.
This edit is crazy!
THIS IS ILL!!! they dont make music like this anymore. THANK YOU.
I was 9 going on 10 when this came out. Still my jam.
They certainly don't make dance music like this anymore. Remember dancing my booty off at STAGE3 NIGHT CLUB LEYSDOWN ISLE of sheppey back in the day.
Outstanding remix kick it with the bass.
They don't make this kind of Classic anymore..💃🚶💃🚶💃🚶
what a masterful sound, timeless music great memories.
What I wouldn’t give to go back to this time in my life.
Lovin' that piano solo!
9:24 The Clubs Roof Gets Tore Off!!!!!!!!
Nice touch on an absolute funkster, I like the fact it didn't stray too far from the gem of the original!
Original = CLASSIC! Paul Simpson's remix = CLASSIC!! I got at least one copy of this from diggin' in da' crates! Big ups for postin'!!!
