Glad that this song is here. GLAD TO KNOW YOU was a tremendous hit in my clubs!! I remixed it to death, and each and every night it sounded New and Fresh!! Fantastic introduction leads to an even better song. Excellent dance music, as the Dance Floors always were packed. Incredibly deejay friendly, and the guitars made it easy!! On my scale from 1-10, this DISCO CLASSIC gets a 10.

This song is just "The Bomb!"
It still sounds as fresh and exciting as it did
27 years ago.
I miss the old days and the Disco rhythms
which may never be surpassed in the world of music.
