    French disco????

    I don't have many clues but I'll do my best.

    What I'm looking for is a record from '78 or '79 where the chorus is : Roll and go or Rolenko or something like that.

    It's song by a Cerrone-like girlchoir and after the chorus there's a pumping horn-bit. To me it sounds very Eurodisco (French or Canadian) and the music is a mix of Don Ray or Gino Soccio-styles.

    Difficult maybe. I don't even have a sample of it but I can sing it to you rightaway :D

    Anybody got the slightest idea. It was a massive clubhit but it was never in the charts.

    Help, I need somebody, help

    Going way back in time...to one of the first topics I ever placed on this board. Today, by pure coïncidence I heard this track and the right lyrics are "Don't let go". The music is a KC-style groove with Cerrone-influences. Laidback, classy with prominent horns.

    I searched the vault and I found 1 match:

    Could this be the one I've been looking for?????

    Does anybody know this track and can he give a little description?

    Thank U

    Tony Orlando did one version of "Don't Let Go". Issac Hayes did a bit more uptempo version.

    Needlefingers, we're on the right track! THX!!!

    I have this on tape but without the name of the artist/song. The lyrics however do match but it clearly ain't Isaac's voice so I guess I have the Orlando version.

    I'm gonna look for both now.

    Ain't it funny that this mystery to me is finally solved :lol:

    THX TO THIS GREAT SITE AND IT'S AWESOME MEMBERS!!!!
