This is one of those tracks that still makes me kinda go ooh when you hear the complexity of the music and the sheer joy to the ear. The xylophone gets right under your skin and burns deep into your memory banks, you aint ever forgetting this tune!

Loved by Jazz Heads and Soulies alike it gives off a resinous of sophistication that the Funk Brothers would die for.

I can never ever remember hearing this played at an allnighter and I only guess it was a Wigan sound? The last time I heard it was Keb Darge bombing the The Altstadt in Dusseldorph with it as a warmer to his funky set, it went down like a tramp on chips.

Love this. Remember, a couple of years ago, when I started turning from skin reggae to soul & mod stuff, this was one of my faves. And still is...

GUACHI GUARO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Grrrrrreat tune, a firm fav of mine for a long time. Love the video. nice!

Great tune. 60s Latin though surely? Not remotely crossover as I understand the term.

Mind you if I'm wrong I can't be arsed to debate it...

Fromage frais Pete, fromage frais :-)

Good call on the track mate but the Funk Brothers are "undissable".

(Is that a word? If so, it should be banned)

This was played at The Wheel .And wasn't it played on Radio Caroline? I don't think the Funk Brothers would have been phased at all if they'd been asked to play this type of music. They just weren't.

maybe cause of the below
