    Sounds like Teddy Pendergrass. His song was More I Get, the More I Want . Nice uptempo song. I hope that helps.

    From a previous thread here I learned that Lorraine Johnson also did "The More I Get, The More I Want". It's an album track, don't know which.

    It's the first track on her first LP, "The more I want". It was also released as a 12".

    This LP and her second LP "I'm learning to dance all over again" were re-released together on one CD, see here:

    I have a version by KWS feat. Teddy Pendergrass which is dreadful. GEMM also lists Double Dee and East West Connection as other artists with this title. Don't know if it's the same song or not --- never heard the last two.

    The East West Connection's cover version is great, but has male vocals...

    I'm not talking about Teddy, bro. It's what KWS does to the song with their 'deconstruction/reconstruction' mixing. It's f**ked up --- all Philly sound lost.

    No apology needed. Anyway, you know I wouldn't be coming down on old Teddy. He's our "I DON'T DO DISCO" brother who kept everybody on the dancefloor. :D

    Best thing I can say is ...

    1) go to www.allmusic.com
    2) register for free
    3) then you can search on the title and from the reply list, you can listen to song samples.

    (works for me)
