Not Disco, but produced by Warren Schatz...

Thanks for the link Bernie and Warren. I always wondered what Mr Schatz and George Andrews looked like. They both worked together on many projects in the 70s. Andrews also did some stuff on his own on a label called Strawberry Records if I'm not mistaken.

I was kind of hoping that out of nowhere would come the thumping drums of Jimmy Young and the pounding of Carlos Martin's congas. But it's a nice piece, just in time for Xmas! Maybe Warren could resurrect The Brothers and do a Christmas dance album like Vince Montana did with the Salsoul Orch back in the day. :)

Here's one great track that Warren produced with Vicki back in the day, which I found on 12inch for a nice price. Same mix as the LP. I'm still holding out for the holy grail of 12inches, the one with 'Under The Skin', 'Make Love' and 'Brothers Theme'. I'm hoping someone will put together an anthology with his RCA disco work.
