- Another wonderful lady who left us far too soon. My tweaking of a favourite... The original Jim Burgess Disco Stereo Remix can be found on Nicolette's "Very Best Of" Rhino cd - Japanese import - it's not listed on the outside cover art, but is on the inner jacket and on the Japanese translation sleeve. Remixed by Jim Burgess, featuring a new sax solo while moving the familiar flute solo to the intro, but in an altered form. Only 4 minutes and change, so it never made a huge club impact, and of course features a new kick drum track rather than the pop heartbeat we know from radio.
Used to love hearing this song in the morning, as kid before school.I wish they made music like this. great remix of a timeless classic R.I.P. Nicolette Larson.
I listen to this song almost everyday. It's nostalgic and I cannot hear it enough. One of the best songs of all time. It captures everything I feel about life, the past, present and future. Neil Young wrote this song, but Nicolette Larson brought it to life. I feel nothing but love when I hear this song. Thank you for posting.
Ian Demontfort Thank you! Me too - every day! Especially when I drift off to sleep at night, it's in my fade-out songlist. A simple chord progression, but superb orchestration. I wonder that I prefer the radio version - it does have a superior flute solo... A song that I used to stop everything for whenever it came on the radio (or better yet, the car radio!). Right up there with Kansas' Dust in the Wind, and Crazy Love by Poco. Can you tell I was a young teen in the late 70's?
leftatalbuquerque Just finishing work. Had to put this on the computer before walking out of the office. I am going to be whistling this down the road and put on again when I get home. The 70's was a great time. Iremeber the 70's well and this song takes me back big time.
Yup, I can tell you were a young teen in the 70's :)
Ian Demontfort Glad that you are out there somewhere enjoying the music, Ian. Feel free to explore my channel - a lot of tunes you may remember, with my own personal twist on them. Songs that were never long enough...
Ian Demontfort I agree man and I was born in 87 but I love this song, has a special energy attached to it
Love this song even when my wife left me this song save me we work it out now we have 30 years together..
much needed in this modern day and age......
Love her voice, such a great song.
YesYesYes
The nostalgia runs deep with this one
Come back for more. Plenty on my channel you would enjoy.
Love this song but it also makes me sad that the music I so loved has died. I despise what passes for "music" today. But I'll always have my precious memories of beautiful '70s dance music, the much maligned but misunderstood -unless- you -lived- through- it magnificent disco.
it's only dead if it's not played, not discussed, not enjoyed.
I hear you...the 70s were the best times of my life

This song is awesome! A wonderful remix. I agree with you Davin Damper...somehow music as we know it was destroyed in the 1990's and 2000's. Now it's just Rap Crap and whiny voices all sounding the same. This was and still is real music with heart and soul. Let's preserve it before it too disappears.
I began listening to more smooth jazz in the 90s after the music companies destroyed funk, R&B, etc.
I still listen to the "Classics" in pop, R&B, rock, etc.
Brilliant flash that momentarily lighted the world!
It was so sad 😢 that this song didn't hit #1 in the Billboard Charts back in 1979. If it was up to me alone, I would had it at #1 for 10 straight weeks, it's that good. This is actually my all time favorite song from any female artists. 💜❤😁💚💙🎤🎧🎶🎺🎸📼💽💿📀📱...
my all time favorite and should have been #1 song of the year 1979....
It did reach no 1 on easy listening chart
What a voice...
Christian Maheu I like a person who takes one moment for research. Well done just saying 👍
Surpreendemente bela
36 years ago today (November 25, 1978) this was released.
40 yrs now! 😮
RIP Nicolette! You are missed! Such a talent you were! What a voice!
Love this song! xo
Such a sweet song. Rings soo true with me.
Nicolette Larson, absolutely timeless!
Love the song and this extension because it has that jenesaisquois.
The perfect balance of Vocalist feeling really emerges and the music's nuances with such crispness and freshness. Thanks
All-time Favorite / One of best feelgood songs ever / Thanks for sharing !
Robert Moore I'm a Moore too!
Awesome Mr. Moore ! :) Neil Young wrote this song for the right artist ... RIP Nicolette !
As far as I know Neil Young did his own version first & Nicolette 'asked' to cover it.
Thanks for the info/insight ! Nonetheless, singer/songwriter fans loved both artist/music of that era !!! Great time for music !!!!! :))
I love extended version it was being heard on the radio early 1979 that is 36 years ago. I never knewthen that that music was an art that would be destroyed by the 1990s. This song has made me feel things for over 36 years now.
I put the blame on Black Box, and what they did with poor Loleatta Halloway with "Ride On Time".
Baloney !
Loleatta Holloway WAS Asked to SING on the Black Box LP & Martha Wash charged less = pure & simple.
OF course EVERYONE 'claimed' to LOve Loleatta Holloway AFTER they had a Number One Dance Hit across The World.
By the fact Ride On Time was So Massive it Proved all the Yakkers knew not one jot about her.
she even said herself when she was booked to a Club afterwards when she did HER Song 'Love Sensation', the Clubs sometimes Complained !
THAT ISN'T ''THAT RECORD", she said she was told and ended up voicing her 'own' Versions that chopped up the original song.
Amazing Version Lady Nic would have loved
She we're so Beautiful as if she Just stepped out of Heaven what an Angle...
THANK YOU Lady Nicolette Miss you love
I l heard this extended version of Lotta Love early 1979 at the height of the disco craze and 15 years later in late 1994 I was talking to a dj at a radio station about this and he actually had this version of Lotta Love and played it on the radio for me I never thought I'd ever hear it again or that someone locally had this on a vinyl album or would remember it. What a wonderful thing that someone in 1978 or 1979 made an effort to make an extended version of this awesome song.
Awesome job Nicolette.RIP.
Lovin' THIS
I'm so glad that you love this AMAZING woman and singer - what a loss.
Beautiful.......Classics and Timeless!
ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC!!!!!!
Love this song! ❤️
EXCELLENT!
Está super para hacer aerobics! Padre ritmo! ❤
i born to late..amazing music!!!!
It didn't matter that this tune didn't reach number 1 back in 78', it was played on the radio as much as a number 1 anyway..that's why we remember it so well..we still love as much as a number 1.. Neil Young tune..done very well...😊💞
We had a ""Lotta love " back in 78 for this song. And that 'love' is still going strong today. 👍
Inolvidable la música disco, Nicolette Larson.
Finales de los años 70 y el furor de la música en su esplendor.
drivin down pacific coast highway in a ford mustang convertable playing this gem.........i wish.......... ,its rainy and cold back here in liverpool uk ,dream on...........
Even though I was a kid when this song hit the charts, I consider it so good, nostalgic, love it!
This is a flawless, sic intro.
When Nicolette made this song she became immortal and now she is always with us through this song that she turned into gold in the late 70s.
Great job Chris, nice touches without completely changing it.
Z a
Neil Young song writing at its best, a beautifully, powerful and heartfelt little number that i just cant help but adore, smashing!!!
easily one of the all time greatest songs by a very talented and beautiful girl
This song has so much meaning back in the day!
Aahh! How sad! Nickolette Larson would've been so wonderful to see in concert! Now we can't have any meet and greets and get any hugs from her, but Olivia Newton John I hope hasn't contracted Covid and if she's still here, I really wanna meet her before she's gone!
Wonderful song
Nice music
I am HIGHLY impressed because the 70s did not have the mixes the 80s 90s and now have and U did a wonderful job!!!!!!!
Nicolette...RIP my friend...
Sensacional, sem comentários, fenomenal, maravilha
This has to be in the top 20 all time power tunes that no matter how old they are when you hear them they sound as good and fresh as they did when they came out.
What a beautiful song
Such MEMORIES
Just when u thought the song 🎵 couldn't get any better. Timeless.R.I.P. The channel even has 11.1k subscribers at the moment...an angel 😇 number ❤️. Thank 😊 you,thank you,thank you....
Good morning folks. Have a great day :) It's gonna take a lotta love! But we will get there :)
Ian Demontfort Hey, Ian - another song you might like to start your day is my remix of George Benson and Donny Osmond singing Breezin' (Breeze On By). Lite jazz - try it!
Essa música me faz lembrar de bons tempos, minha infância... tão linda e nostalgica!!!!
I forgot to say thank you for this lovely re-mix. It's been on my playlist since you posted it!
You are very welcome. These songs I do are old friends - not many today capture me the same way as these still do - I guess it's the same for every generation, though.
wish this would come onto a CD single w/ her other same remixes. so cool.
I feel I can sum it up in one sentence. This version truly captures the upbeat spirit of the disco era. Nay sayers, off with your heads. I enjoyed the disco era. There were a lot of truly multi-talented artists that brought joyful music to another level. Hell, man it was just plain good fun and great music. Just like Toyota, you asked for it, you got it. Thanks for reading, Chega Desaude #1.
fantastico
Hi.i have your new ! Channel I like this song I will put it on my playlist so keep the song coming your no.1 fan
this iscloser to the version in no nukes the movie and sound track.great job we needed this version .
Nostalgia 100% Pura........!!!!! Tks.
Oldie but goodie, I may be only 24 but I grew up with this music to.
This tune is being played and enjoyed right now. Keep on lovin it! :)
Ditto- One of best feelgood songs ever....ear orgasm !!!
Did you know that she and Prince were "debuted" at the same Warner's industry release party?
this mix is fantastic
Great job...I love hearing the older classics remixed!!!
Very NICE!!!
Yes! Pure ecstacy on wax! I forgot this track! Nicolette's voice had a Stevie Nicks-esque raspy quality to it...That sax is ridiculously sexy 💏🎶🎶🎷
It took a Lotta Love, Fortitude, and Brilliance to conceive this Masterpiece! Again well done: 10.10.10!
I've listened to all the Nicolette Larson Lotta Love Remixs and this is the best to date... Thanks for taking this project on, you did a great job.
dude!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks man. Thank you for this.
brings back so many memories. love the Kim karnes extended mix too!
This was awesome. Granted, I was in 3rd grade when this was on the radio, but never heard this version before. Have to give props as well to Neil Young. One of my favorite songwriters, he knew how to give one of his backup singers one of the best songs he ever wrote and the extended sax made the song even better than the radio edited version they've played for years.
ackpaintdude1 In the 70's and into the 80's, every pop hit seemed to have a sax solo. It is one of many instruments sadly lacking in today's current pop scene.
If you are looking for a band that makes modern alt rock/pop music who isn't afraid to add guitar or sax solos to their music, look at this band from Montpelier, France named M83. As somebody who is very cynical and jaded about a lot of what passes nowadays for pop music, their stuff has a definite 80's vibe to it and the fact that they aren't superstars at this point absolutely baffles me.
I keep coming back here when I want to hear this song.......I refuse to play the short original due to this mix LOL.....thanks again for the fan made mix
love it!!
I love what you, and the original mixer did with this! I would buy it!!!
I love the sax in this mix!! It is soo different but also the original flute solo was awesome too, since flutes do not solo much in a pop song
Great job, Chris. Love what you've done with this classic. Lotta Love is one of my all-time favourites.
This is F'ing FANTASTIC!
I love this so much I always return to this unique and great fan remix!!!
I heard the Jim Burgess remix only a couple of times in clubs and loved it but I must say this is an improvement. I wasn't a hardcore disco denizen so I really enjoyed extended remixes like this and other remixes of mainstream recordings. The Stones' "Miss You" was another great remix - wish there was one of "Hot Stuff" from "Black & Blue." These remixes in turn exposed mainstream artists to broader audiences. Burgess had remarkable license from Warner to do what he did. Fascinating guy.
Beautiful voice love this song! Great remix
Schoner Classic
So sad for Nicolette tragic ending to a beautiful Lady
I m p r e s i o n a n t e ! !
After hearing this I had to subscribe! This is NIIIIICE!! Loved Nicollette back in the day!
Perfection! Your respect for the original versions is so very appreciated.
You have taken so many of my favorite songs from my youth to new heights that still make me feel like I did when I first heard them - a young boy dancing in the barn while milking cows.
luv this...
Another masterpiece by Jimmy Haskell with credit to left at Albuquerque. Nicolette gone way too soon.
Such a happy time in my life. 1978. Graduated HS that spring. Started college that fall. I was still 5 years away from coming out of the closet. But I had my fantasies of being able to love openly. Whenever I heard this beautiful song I dreamed of me and the guy I loved dancing and making love. Sadly he was straight and I never told him. I turn 60 next week. Life goes on and I’m still alone...
Oh, honey... we've got to get you out of that funk! I prescribe some more Disco Therapy. Chat with me here... I literally just discovered your comment here today - so much for CZcams Notifications!
Thanks for caring. Your remix is beautiful! I wish I could have danced to this song with a guy instead of with girls. The first time I danced with a guy to Shannon’s Let the Music Play was a feeling of freedom and joy that I’ve rarely experienced. Dancing with guys in the clubs in the early ‘80s was such a magical time. When a ‘70s song played like Diana’s Love Hangover or Thelma’s Don’t Leave Me This Way and I could finally dance with a guy to it I was in heaven!
@@tlw1950 My first experiences were in the early 80's as well - when the gay bars discovered that yes, Disco was Gay Music and to hell with the rest of society listening to AC/DC! When a lot of the songs were Broadway disco-makeovers, like Memory by Menage and Scherrie Payne doing One Night Only from Dreamgirls. The first disco makeover was arguably Bette Midler's Strangers In The Night, then Linda Clifford doing If My Friends Could See Me Now and of course, Donna Summer's incomparable MacArthur Park. I loved Vicki Sue Robinson's To Sir With Love as well. Tons from that era.
I remember Norma Lewis’ Maybe This Time, Viola Wells’ Gonna Get Along Without You Now and of course Gloria Gaynor’s I Am What I Am which I recall some guys hated but I LOVED it...all in that vein. I was in Boston... where were you?
@@tlw1950 Toronto. I have a whole series of songs like those - I collected the 12" singles. I was an ADDICT! Do you remember a song called "Again and Again" by Nikki Lauren? And Q-Feel's "Dancing In Heaven"? I'm talking the gray days of 1981-82-83 when the Megatone label was just starting... Stuff like Boystown Gang, etc. Before 12" singles started being mass produced again. When Disco was a bad word.
This is an awesome remix of the Disco Version of this song. Great, great job.
My first instinct is to say "suberbly!", but if you are wondering how I actually do it, I use a music/sound editing program called Adobe Audition. Its limits are definite - I can't separate tracks out of a finished recording, as they are now "one track", but I can cut and paste and overdub and lift out certain sounds enough (not cleanly) to have any associated noises disappear into the remix... it's a hobby, and I'm learning as I go.
Awesome!! Keep it up!! She is so underrated!!
Me encantó esta versión, muy bonita
This is my favourite music channel. The Extended Mixes are gold. For me, you absolutely nail this one. Well done mate.
Thanks! It all started when I realized I could try to splice music on my cassette player in the 80's. I don't pretend that any of these are professional calibre, I play with Adobe Audition and slice and dice and overdub and try to make it sound as if it were the 12" version from the period the song was recorded... usually!! I miss hearing these songs on the radio - as we grow older, pop culture leaves us behind... and the music I hear today doesn't seem to have the heart and soul of what it did when I was a kid... I'm a cliche, I guess!!
I love your work. As an old Dj from the 80's I appreciate what you do. I was trying to find an extended track (40 mins) to post that I acquired about ten years ago from a random guy who blended about a dozen songs from various eras. We used it in a bar and everyone wanted it. It was superb. I'm not saying you have bucket loads of time, but you certainly have the ability to do something similar. He walked into the bar and asked me was I after some retro chill music during the quiet times. I thought it was a scam. He asked me to pick about twenty chill songs that I liked and thought would work, so I did. Two weeks later he walked in, downloaded it onto my computer and said if I like it I owe him dinner and drinks. Mindboggling how many people, young and old (it was a late night tapas cocktail bar), asked to buy a copy. That was years ago and I can't find him to get a copy to post for your ears. Anyway I enjoy your work. Cheers
It sounds like the Stars On 45 and Intro Disco stuff from the early 80's...
Thank you Left, way to go southpaw from albuquerquee....terrific sound!
I love this mix!
Thank you. It is one of my favourites. Have you listened to my remix of Ace "How Long"?
very nice
40 years now.
40 years and still timeless and beautiful....
llevo tantos años acordándome de esta canción y por fin la encontré!!!!!! me encanta Nicolette Larson
What is it like to have a favourite song in another language? It must be frustrating trying to understand the lyrics.
ahhh!! y tu que sabes si la entiendo o no???? mas bien debe ser muy duro vivir en la ignorancia....
Espero que disfruten las otras canciones de mi canal también.
lucerort, bien dicho!!!
uma voz linda, cantava como um anjo, ficou boa está mixagem, descanse em paz Nicolette Larson....
awesome
@leftatalbuquerque That's got to be the best remix of this Ive ever heard!! You took the best parts and made em even more funky! Gotta Love It! Wew!
didn't know that she had passed, but this mix is sublime.. well done!
