When I was a DJ back in the 70's I would play this as my.last record every night, it became a tradition. When people heard thst intro they all got up and danced! What a awesome track. A dance floor burner.
40 plus years on Deodato as fresh as ever. The complexity of layers of beats and strains come together perfectly. Represents the best of the great genre of Jazz Funk.
The Royalty southgate,North London Friday night 1978...When this came on people went crazy,41 years ago and still sounding as good now as then..Life is memories!!!
Right?!? Same in San Francisco. People RAN to the dance floor when the dj segued into it from the previous song. Usually, you could hear the guitar intro of the song, and the crowd would - in about 8 beats - recognize the song and just yell/roar all at the same time, in a way people most distinctly do not do now. It was a moment when the entire "tribe" came together as one. Everyone would laugh after the "roar" and in that one moment, we'd all look at each other and just laugh at how great it all was!
Arrangements were so tight ; and unique ! This man's music is timeless ; he's a fantastic keyboard man . So much Happy Music ; for the happy peaceful times of the 70's - 80's. Wish I could go back & get some more ; best times of the USA .
V103 in Chicago bought me here. The radio dj played this during their Friday night house set. That symphonic part though!!!! Ooooo weeee!!! Then the guitar solo with the build up!!! Come on through!!! LOVE IT!!!
WBLS in NYC used to play this so often i thought it was a station promo instrumental! A great hustle tune with a samba inflection it was often played at Leds Mouches in NYC where I worked in the summer of 1978. Julio Superstarr and Francois Kevorkian spun. This was the 'International' music of its time. disco opened ears to a world of dance. Love to all!
Great music from the maestro, who is still going strong. Saw him live at Ronnie Scotts a few weeks back and all I can say is, wow. He played this plus all the great funk hits from over the years - a night I'll never forget.
Ano de 2003...Estava em um voo da Varig vindo de São Paulo com destino a Recife. No pouso, a equipe colocou para tocar essa música e, simplesmente, foi mágico. Apreciar a paisagem no momento do pouso ao som dessa maravilha.
Deodato a true master and legend of fusion.his ability to blend jazz-brazil+funk is amazing.have been a huge fan for years.this one of his finest jazz funk anthems .so much amazing music and wonderful artists have blessed us with there music from Brazil.thank you.
this disco version had great and frequent rotation on Boston's disco radio station at that time as well as a big hit in the clubs including Boston Boston as mentioned previously. that was one of many great discos in Boston I fondly remember Whimsy's formerly the Mama Leone's Italian restaurant where John Luongo was quite the DJ
It's 1978 and Disco is in full bloom music is coming from all over the world from artists you wouldn't expect . This was only heard in the night clubs and in Boston the best club was Boston Boston the Disco simply because they had the best DJ Jeff Tilton and the best sound system by far . When I heard this gem there I loved it and went out and bought it .(still have it).
Hi Steven , Fresh out of high school and swept up by the boom I was a frequent flyer to Boston Boston . That club to music to another level . You must have loved it and I'm not sure you would've called it work because it was the place to be . For me at that time Boston Boston clearly stood out as the premier club .
Saturday nights at the Garage a tribute to everyone who was on the scene at that wonderful time . Paradise Garage Mike stone Studio 54 Better Days Peppermint lounge Zanzibar Larry Levan David Morales Nicky Siano Tee Scott Hewitt Ken Carpenter
The first time I ever heard of this artist was in the late 70's from a guy from Philly named Joseph Emory Simon, he was, to me, one of the greatest influences in my life...I hope he is doing well in 2019 ...Thanks man, you helped me grow up...
You cannot find a sexier groove, that compares to this timeless gem that Eumir put out. It all comes together (keyboards, strings, horns, guitar,flutes) With such perfection that one ends up living and breathing a conscious work of art, that had been years in the making!!!! Don't stop these miracles here on earth, Eumir!!!!! We are forever in gratitude To your enormous talent that has lifted us all up to soaring heights!!!!
Awesome song I remember being in Boston and hearing it on the Disco radio station as well as in the club's however the 12-inch single which was not made commercially available was a remix over the much shorter album version.
Damn!after 17 years i found the original....but back there i bought a Record from Guidance recordings that was kind of and edit from this track and play it many times and doesnt have this name,thank you👏
I love him!! I always listened to music nobody ever heasrd of until I introduced them to these great artisdts like Maynard Fugesson,,Jeff Beck,,Pat Methenney herb Alpert wasn't just famous for "Taste of Honey" to this day my friends thank me for that!
Happy birthday to Brazillian producer & artist Eumir Deodato, as he celebrates his 73rd birthday today, this is one of biggest club dancefloor tracks he hit us with this Jazz Funker back in 1978, which put him on that pedestal as top class act, he later went on to procuce Kool & the Gang
Maybe it established him on the late-70s disco scene but to say it 'put him on that pedestal as a top class act' is totally incorrect. Deodato had already been a huge name for several years. You need to listen to Super Strut, Skyscrapers, September 13th & his biggest hit ever, Also Sprach Zarathustra (more recently famous as the theme to Space Odyssey which actually came out originally in 1973). Deodato's funky music was right on point in the early 70's and this was merely the same conversion to the later disco sound that so many other jazz artists made.
John Clark Correct John 200%, But I Knew He Was Going Places When He Paired With Stanley Turrentine And Gilberto To Produce That Beautiful " VERA CRUZ" Arranged And Conducted By Him!!!!!!! Listen To The Rhythm Section " Guitarist Suvuco And Others On That Beautiful JAM!!!!!!!👌🏾👍🏼🤗😎👊🏾🎸🙀
For a while, THE killer song of 1978. People would trample you to get to the dance floor as soon as they hear the beginning bars when the dj segued into this song. EVERYONE loved this song. Percolating as hell, syncopation to die for. Sounds like a fast song (bpm-wise), but its actually not that fast at all. It's just got that band playing to - pardon the expression - Beat The Band. And they did!!!!
one of many cases where Warner Brothers records issued this 12in remix largely extended version to DJs only and left the popular public with a much shorter and different LP version. I used to scour the used record stores in Boston nuggets and zounds and others and used to find DJ record pool Surplus that ended up in these the used record stores
200% Correct !!!!!!! Took From "78" To 2007??????? To Find The DJ Or Extended Version Here, But I Always Felt That On The Shorter Version That Maybe There Was A Longer Version!!!!!!!🎹🎷🎺🎸🎻
What a classic!!! Still sounds so good. Brings back so many good memories of that time. Deodato - Your'e a Brazilian genius!!!
When I was a DJ back in the 70's I would play this as my.last record every night, it became a tradition. When people heard thst intro they all got up and danced!
What a awesome track. A dance floor burner.
I’d give almost anything to have experienced a night at the disco, but I was born 25 years too late
Beautifully refreshing dance track that never lost its allure. Sounds just as fresh today as it did back in 1978! The mark of a true classic!
Totally agree
40 plus years on Deodato as fresh as ever. The complexity of layers of beats and strains come together perfectly. Represents the best of the great genre of Jazz Funk.

Always loved this one. The whole Love Island album is very wonderful .
Eumir Deodato. If that's not the perfect disco era name for a performer, I don't know what is. This song personifies that era.
Brilliant track.....superb backing......1978! Blime I was 20!
SOUNDS AS GOOD TODAY AS WHEN I FIRST HEARD IT IN 1978
Oh for a time machine, tunes like this got me out of the Northern Soul scene for a couple of years, and met my beautiful wife, best days of our lives😥
GLORIOUS. 42 years on Deodato magic fresh as ever
ICONIC TWIRL TUNE💃🏽🕺🏽💃🏽🕺🏽

Yes, sir, you can say that again.

In my 1972 Olds 98, I played this song on the car radio when I was 18 years old.

I was 17 love this jam❤️ timeless ♥️

For long time I couldn't figure out the name of this or who made it. one day just put the idea in my head it was Deodato and searched til I found it.
one of many cases where Warner Brothers records issued this 12in remix largely extended version to DJs only and left the popular public with a much shorter and different LP version. I used to scour the used record stores in Boston nuggets and zounds and others and used to find DJ record pool Surplus that ended up in these the used record stores
200% Correct !!!!!!! Took From "78" To 2007??????? To Find The DJ Or Extended Version Here, But I Always Felt That On The Shorter Version That Maybe There Was A Longer Version!!!!!!!🎹🎷🎺🎸🎻
Glad u found it. A timeless classic that must be treasured for a lifetime!!!!
