    It's standard Vince Montana / Salsoul Orchestra fare.
    But if you're into that, it's one of the best pieces they did.

    There's a promo 12" single version, that ran 7'38"
    While the LP version, from "Up The Yellow Brick Road", runs 11'45"
    "MUSIC IS AN EMOTION, SEARCHING FOR IT'S VOICE"

    I don't know the 12 inch version, but on the lp, it's Vincent Montana's "blasting away" on the vibraharp in the end that really gets me going.

    From the break before they start to sing "Tonight" (I think the break could have been a disco song on its own), to the end of the song is just a wonderful arrangement.

    I have, and still do, DJ/MC gymnastic events, dance competitions and benefits and use this part of the medley in my pre-show mix. It really adds to a special occasion.
