DISCO CLASSIC ALERT!!! One of the great albums of 1980. There is the DISCO CLASSIC "Keep Smilin" which everyone burned out. Then there is the hidden gem, IT'S NOT WHAT YOU GOT (But How You Use It)," which was played everywhere, but wasn't in the HIT category. And another track that was played was USE IT OR LOSE IT! Three very strong and awesome tracks,m including a DISCO CLASSIC, It gets a 10 on my scale from 1-10.

What a great album this was.
I loved when an Lp featured more than a few truly great disco classics.
This one had so many that it almost became a GREATEST HIST in itself.
