A lot of people prefer Isaac Hayes' "Don't let go" but I just luuuuuv the Tony Orlando track. Too bad it is not on any compilation by him (as far as I know)!

Maybe he just wants us to love him for his other stuff?

Thanx Remmy for that; I really like that version of 'Dont Let Go'! I'm only familiar with Isaac Hayes' & Manhattan Transfer's versions. I think Mr.Dawn's version is the best.

Yeah, I found a used white cover 12" promo [someone wrote in black magic marker the title & artist] in the Tony Orlando section of the Easy-Listening area at Amoeba the first time I looked !!!

Bobby Viteritti played this at Trocadero; it's on one or more of his cds for sale...I was not aware of this record back in tha day--maybe I first saw it mentioned in Jussi's book...

Anyway, it is smooth and groovy and a fun morning tempo record from a most unlikely source....

When I lived in Calgary around the time that this song came out one of the local FM radio stations played this all the time. I have it on a tape I recorded off air from one of their disco nights they had on weekends. I never knew anyone else recorded it besides Tony Orlando.
