from the 12” single, Sound of New York Records, 1980It all starts off mellow enough with a tambourine, party chatter & a couple of handclaps, when a tough yet harmonious trio of voices direct us to dance, making it well know that, “…we’re the dance freaks…” Then, rather unexpectedly the first time you hear it, the song abruptly detonates like a megaton blast of TNT, bass thump & hi-hat kicking hard like a horse, jazzy keys and mad brass all up in your face---don’t horns always bring the party?! The prodigious Peter Brown had his fingers on this track, and it’s one of his hottest productions---for real people, this is frenzied funk at its wild-eyed best, and copies of this original 12” fetch up to $200 among collectors! As a feisty disco diva once declared, “…if you can’t dance to this, you got no business havin’ feet!”
