NOTES ON THIS VINYL RECORD:

Pennington's version of this song was a remake of Erma Franklin, "Gotta Find Me A Lover (24 Hours A Day)."

24 Hours A Day was produced by Ian Levine who was the producer of James Well's classic "My Claim To Fame." Although hailing from the US, Barbara Pennington achieved more success in the UK and eventually did a lot of backing vocals for Levine's other Hi-NRG artists during the '80's like Miquel Brown's "So Many Men."

Reader Comments on Barbara Pennington

BARBARA PENNINGTON'S "24 hours a day" was a big US disco record in 1976 - try the original minimalist 12" mix with its walking bassline. Great track !

"Great" hardly describes this totally awesome record. Gospel-style vocals that send a chill up my spine, sweeping strings, a funky clavinet, teasing false endings, this song has it all. I play it as often now as when it was released. "24 hours a day, no matter what time it is I can't stay away!" she says (actually, she screams). So good it makes me dizzy.

One of the true, lasting DISCO classics.
