How in the name of DISCO can no-one have made a comment on this fantastic album! It will be my honor to add the first one. How shall I begin, let me count the ways!! SMARTY PANTS! is a DISCO CLASSIC that was played in EVERY CLUB, by EVERY DEE JAY in TOWN!! A sure fire NUMBER ONE charted song. LOVE AND HAPPINESS was a cover of AL GREEN'S classic. Slower than most other tracks on this album, it was a big favorite among lovers. NEWSY NEIGHBORS also was a DISCO CLASSIC that too, reached NUMBER ONE status. Then there is a THIRD DISCO CLASSIC on this LP. My favorite was ARMED AND EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. It was #1 as well. That makes this CLASSIC album full of DISCO CLASSICS!!! If you don't have this, get it!! If you want to hear what early DISCO was all about, simply put this on your turntable!! On my scale from 1-10, it obviously gets a big TEN!!!!!!
