Default Help with Private Pink's "Little High Things"

Love this track from Dmitri's "Cocktail Disco" Amazon-U.S. | Amazon-U.K. | Amazon-Germany | Amazon-France, and never knew it from the 70s. Can anyone remember it, or say what year/country/producer it came from? I dig the "More More More" vibe, but there's not a trace of the record on any sources I have.

Private Pink - Little High Things (Original 12" version) 1977 Sometimes I wonder what makes me pick a record that looks like nothing, and in the bargain section of a shop where usually the worst records end. When I heard it wondered how long it stayed there too. With a killer breakbeat intro, "Little High Things" moves on lead by a horn-y lead synth to a vocal climax.

Yep, it's in the same league as the unforgettable Patrick Adams vibes:

Universal Robot Band: "Dance (And Shake Your Tambourine)



Good, but...not as good as the enchanting classic from

Cloud One: "Atmosphere Strut" (I can listen to that track every day)

Hey,

I managed to get a copy of this a couple of years ago, one day when I got a pile of records from a used shop here. To be honest, I didn't pay it much attention until I heard it on the Dimitri compilation last year. It's a Canadian record (complete with MAPL/Can-Con symbol) written by Peter Sinclair and produced by the singer-songwriter Terry Jacks. Released 1977 on Goldfish Records. I tend to think of this one as 'hippie disco' :)

Anyway, hope this helps...

Thanks, Neon, for taking the time to dig out that info! It is a big help, as the record seems to show up nowhere else.
