Leif Garrett

Another nice and unknow disco-side of Leif was the ipnotic MOONLIGHT DANCIN' from the third album Same Goes For You. It was quite famous in Spain and Italy.

Leif does this cover of Detroit Emeralds in two different versions. The first,from the late 1978,long about 3,28 minutes i think is the better one,where Leif sing it more slowly with strong and his real teen-sexy voice,insert in the 33rpm with the same name,the last song of the B side. This version is the same he playback on his tv-show THE LEIF GARRETT SPECIAL in the early 1979. But in 1979 Leif topped the international charts with I MADE FOR DANCIN',and so immediately he recored another version of FEEL THE NEED,more long,in falsetto,like the disco sides of Bee Gees. This is the single version.

Nothing merited Leif's homeless fate, but this was a big sin even for a cute twink. What an awful cover of the Detroit Emeralds, who had remade, and in a supreme disco-magical remix by Tom Moulton, BETTERED the funky original by Graham Central Station!
