"Time Will Tell" is nice, but the real KILLER track here is "This Will Be A Night To Remember."
Wow! Hypnotizing may be the correct word, or "entrancing", I don't know. In any case, the ever-present strings, keyboards, mellow vocal delivery by Eddie Holman, and, mostly the repeated "Oooooh oooh, I got a feeeeling, this will be a night to remember..." chorus, are to die for.
This is clearly a track to make love on, over and over again, on a warm spring or summer afternoon. I know I did, inadvertantly pressing the repeat button with my toe on the CD player I'd inserted my mix CD in. Obviously, neither of us bothered to correct that, and this track remains to this day, "our song", and her favorite track (as well as one of my faves, obviously).

Apr 10, 2008 | 1:41 pmMixMachine is right, like always. Back, way back before the troglodytes, hold on that's an other song. Back when I was in hight school, my senior year, EDDIE HOLMAN released "Hey there lonely girl", it was so popular that we sought him out to perform at our Senior Prom. But that's another story all together!--- THIS WILL BE A NIGHT TO REMEMBER, a "PERFECT" Disco record??? Give me some are made! Even though most people LIKED this song, it can't be considered as one of the greats, SIMPLY NOT ENOUGH CLUBS PLAYED IT!!! FORGETTABOUTIT!!!On my realistic scale from 1-10, this song gets a 7. What it deserves!!

Eddie Holman is also responsible for one of the most memorable slow ballads ever, "Hey there lonely girl" was a must play song at every party back in my High School days even though the song was already a few years old...

I think choosing the long Instrumental intro on the 12" made this remix a little "weak". Not one of Mr Moultons better mixes. But the song is one of the Best there is. GREAT RECORD.

I forgot to mention the tracks were written by Ron Tyson & Ron Baker.

Some reviewers have called this the "perfect" disco record; such a loaded word! But it is one of a few that has made me step off the dance floor because it had begun to break me into TEARS!
Man! BERNIE!! Something destroyed my last comment, it ripped out the guts of what I was saying. In the fourth line, after "PERFECT Disco Record???" It was supposed to say,"GIVE ME SOME OF WHAT YOU'RE SMOKING! DISCO CLASSICS AND PERFECT DISCO RECORDS HAVE TO BE PLAYED BEFORE THEY CAN BE CALLED THAT! THIS SONG WASN'T HEARD ENOUGH TO BE CALLED THAT! A GREAT DISCO RECORD HAS TO BE PLAYED IN THE PRIME TIME HOURS WERE CLASSICS ARE MADE". That is the middle of my last comment!
