I'm with you OSF ..... this song still strongly resonates within my disco core .... just has a special disco flavor all its own ( & powerful up front strings and vocals ) . Transports me back to Studio One in LA every time 8) :) ....

The one song I remember as being especially stretched ( maybe just under ten though ) ..... yet it still seemed like every second of the song mattered .... was "HIT AND RUN " Loleatta Holloway . Listened to it all the way through every time . It was my drive around with the top down song during its summer of dominance ..... Sassy and confident ..... it elevated the Salsoul sound .....

^ Wow! I completely forgot about the Walter Gibbons mix of Hit & Run.. Love that mix!

one more to add:
Love Symphony Orchestra - Let's Make Love In Public Places..
A lot classier than it sounds :P The entry says 4.16, but my mp3 runs 12.54

I'd forgotten about The Love Symphony Orchestra....it keeps going & going...but you never lose interest. Slicker than my usual taste in disco, but well done. "Let Me Be Your Fantasy" is another great cut by them :P
