      @@poppopw5305 Absolutely! This great Philly jam written by Bell & James ("Living It Up") along with Leroy Bell's uncle- one of the greatest arrangers/songwriters/producers ever- Mr. Thom Bell (part of Philly's Big 3 along with his partners in soulful crime: Gamble & Huff). I wish the "Thom Bell Sessions" were not only not aborted but made into a double album at that special time in 1977. EJ's soulful vocals gliding on those TSOP grooves! I'm thankful we got the surviving songs from that session- all which demonstrate EJ stepping up to the challenge of the genius of Mr. Bell & all those great Philadelphia musicians. This short album puts EJ's voice front & center unlike any in his great catalog. 42 years ago?!.........it's hard to believe- especially listening to this gem which sounds like much of that classic Philly sound- timeless & like they just cut this track last night.

      Not for me growing up. I remember it charting in 2003 following a re-release coinciding with its inclusion in a Sky Sports advert. I was young at that time.

      That song was originally recorded in 1977, but wasn't released until two years later where it only got to a miserly No42 in the UK charts.
      In 2003, it was remixed slightly and reissued, when it finally got the recognition it deserved by going all the way to No1.

    After patiently waiting for it's moment for all those years, at least this classic song has now finally gotten the recognition that it so richly deserves.
