Released in 1980...42 years later at the end of 2022 it's still a jaw dropping example of the greatness of music from the golden era of pop and dance 1975 to 1985.
The name of this song and the name of the artist who recorded this song has literally haunted me for over (4) decades. I literally just now hummed the tune into Google song finder and BAM!!! This gem popped up.Thanks for the memories!🙌🏾
Right, a difficult tune to locate if you don't have anything to go by! Another disco classic that fits that description is "Ai No Corrida" as produced by Quincy Jones. I grew up with that song but had a devil of a time finding it again, but I did, thanks to TH-cam and Google.
i remember this song so well that i almost feel that bass making my ears ring and smell the perfume of the girl i was dancing with all night long at those highly promoted and long awaited high school dance of the year. Glad to have been a part of the Era.
i was 13 yrs old and living in a squatter in borneo island when this song came out.remember use to blast it full volume on the stereo and my neighbours would get agitated by it and mom would scold us.oh those wonderful yrs.thanks robraw 101 for uploading this great tune cant get anything like this anymore,
How could I forget my Guatemala when I listen to this song. My childhood, the rainy days and the volcano view in the terraza of my house. Mandolay rules!
Me retrotrae a mi mundo ochentoso, por dios..cuantos recuerdo de gente con quienes compartimos esta musica, es una caricia a mis dias felices. GRACIAS POR LOGRAR ESTO.
I love this song. It was on a disco collection my sister got me for Christmas. The guitar part reminds me a bit of Simon & Garfunkel's Hazy Shade of Winter. This is one of the best dancing songs ever.
About 5 years ago on a bicycle event (GOBA) this band was the entertainment. It was near Cleveland, Ohio. I shit my pants. They still had that energy. Amazing.
I remember this song from Uncle Sam's Disco in Houston. Love it - no one I knew remembered the song. I love You Tube - I have waited for years to find this. The music takes me back.
I knew I wasn't crazy, I've been searching for this song for years. One of the radio stations that I used to listen to played it 2 or 3 times, over about a week period, and then it just disappeared. I really liked the song when I heard it, but never was able to locate it, until now, even though I searched for it several times.
There is an app called SHAZAM, when you hear a song that you dont know the title too, just open the app and allow it to listen to the track...it will bring up its listing...A DJs best friend TRUST ME!!
I was going mad the past 3 months trying to find this song. I've heard it in so many hi nrg compilations. Thank you so much for the upload. That guitar riff sounds amazing. Going to learn it for fun.
I searched and searched to find this song we would hear on the radio on Friday and Saturday nights in the summer of 1980, now I cannot stop listening to it
Man! you gotta love TH-cam and it's algorythms No more having to go to tower records to ask the clerk or having to buy a whole cd for one song! Awesome music bro!
i'm two months shy of my 30th, and until tonight, i never even knew this song existed (which is inexcusable considering that i regard myself as an 80s guy all the way).. but i've always been very shy of expressing myself musically because my tastes in music have always been "outdated" or "eccentric" in comparison to my peers.. but fate had it that i heard this tune tonight, and i realized i don't care.. and i never should have. when your soul is struck by a rhythm like this, who gives a damn. dance, let go, and be yourself! there is nothing quite like it! i've waited a long time to dance like this tonight :)
It was really a very hip song when it came out. Just the thoughts of those days in the big city...Shiny jewelry, clean and tight clothes, Vodka, dark clubs, dancing for 90 straight minutes and of course...LINES
New lose sight of how you felt when you heard it and that feeling you had also never ever give a damn about anyone thinks of you as long your happy and being safe I saw enjoy yourself and keep moving I'm very close to 50 yrs old so I know how you feel getting up moving around feels awesome 😊
This music is the best. Disco will never die. Battleground Country Club NJ has 1st and 3rd Friday Disco night's...parteeee. brings me back to good old Brooklyn.
I remember hunting for the longest time to find the very rare 12" single of this when I DJ'd in college. Snapped it up for $20 when the average LP went for $5 from someone in my record pool. Dominated the mid 130BPM slot! Even got the disco haters onto the dance floor.
Just heard this tune for the first time on SiriusXM Studio 54....freakin' GREAT tune. Reminds me of the disco days in Spain during the summers when I was a young lad. Good times.
Yup ! I was in the DISCO era , loved going to discotheques ! I was dancing more than checkin' out the chicks , they had so many good record cuts I was just pulled to the dance floor !
Wasn't disco just "it?" Thank God I remember it so well from the radio. I didn't start going out till I was 21 in 1990 - they were still playing some disco, and decent remixes - but I am SURE it wasn't like it was at the zenith of disco. I used to bug my mother to let me go out when I was younger, but she would look at me like I was crazy. (this suburban kid just couldn't catch a break.)
Gawd, I remember dancing to this at the Village Station in Dallas. FIRST club I ever went to. I stood on the 2nd floor, looking down at all the people dancing then when this started playing, and everyone that knew it and/or recognized it?.... TALK ABOUT A PACKED FLOOR!!!! **big sigh**..... to be 20 again, and dancing til dawn.
oh yes...back in the day...with the great DJ's of Boston, VINNIE PERUZZI (may he rest in peace) Dale Dorman, SUNNY JOE WHITE (may he rest in peace)...and the ladies dressed fine and looking hot...hustle time...yes the lights, the music, the fog, the black russians with the cherries... what else could we asked for back then...thanks for the post. oh what memories...
You can't have any debauchery on Cinco de Mayo without this song. It is such a staple (at least, it is heard often in the cars cruising around on the day here in San José, Califas.)
It was disco odyssey in 78 changed the name in 79 to compete with studio 54 in New York City high heels bell bottoms angel flights suits and platforms. Damn those were the days in San Jose!

Song of my youth... The set of memories is connected with her It is a lot of friends and girlfriends of my youth As though has plunged into time thirty years ago
@Khultan We'll just have to agree to disagree! I am definitely from the 70's! I was born in '61, so I was a "girl" during the disco era. And I just think that this was the best song from the disco period. Hope you have a wonderful weekend !! :)
Hi Harv Villanuova ! I used to work in the Hyatt Regency Hotel in downtown Dallas and after work on the weekwnd i used to go to the Boiler Room in downtown or to the Confetti in Greenville Ave. Well that was about 22 years ago , great music ,great clubs lots of good memories. Too bad that they do not make music that they used to make in the 80's that ira has gone forever.

LaFlavour is a group of white guys who started in the 70's from Ohio. This groove is 1 of the best!!!!

One of the biggest dance hits of the early eighties!
Got that right even now people dont know this masterpiece

Whenever disco I was in, the floor was packed every time this song came on. It was the disco anthem.
This song is fire through 🔥🔥🔥😎💯💪🏾💛💛💛
The Classic at every Disco in the world, baby!
How could I forget my Guatemala when I listen to this song. My childhood, the rainy days and the volcano view in the terraza of my house. Mandolay rules!
I love this song. The dance music was so energizing back than. How I wish I was old enough to go to the discos back than!!
It was the best times to grow up in and everyone showed up at the clubs and it was so much fun!
Just saw this performed live last night. Many decades later and La Flavour still sounds as good as this record. They are the consummate band.
見つけた～💕
めちゃくちゃ懐かしい😊
ディスコに通ってた時によくかかってた曲❗️
いい思い出✨
Something about this song just makes me wanna dance and party. Love it!!!
OMG, I miss my wonderful Latino neighbors in Philly.. dancing with them..good food, great times.. I reminisce with this great song!

Me retrotrae a mi mundo ochentoso, por dios..cuantos recuerdo de gente con quienes compartimos esta musica, es una caricia a mis dias felices. GRACIAS POR LOGRAR ESTO.
The good old funky days are gone. I miss 70's and my teen age years.

My Viva has passed . We loved dancing to this peoples would get out of our way. Lol!
This song or Music is Just AWESOME !!! AWESOME !!!! My Blessings to the group or band or Mandolay !!!!!
A classic !! Great tune and bassline. We was in 1979 !!!

oh those days...those days!!...those effing days!! Miss those times and songs..
I searched and searched to find this song we would hear on the radio on Friday and Saturday nights in the summer of 1980, now I cannot stop listening to it

Man! you gotta love TH-cam and it's algorythms No more having to go to tower records to ask the clerk or having to buy a whole cd for one song! Awesome music bro!
Why so long i had it at age 15

one of the best songs to dance to. I had to request it every Ladies Night at the old Bobby MGees in PHX. miss those days of fast dancing & fun!

Ahahhahahahaha
Heard it first time on July 29th 1979... Unforgettable!
It's a shame that La Flavour isn't more famous than they are. What they deliver, is pure quality that most music today lack.
Apparently they changed their name to “Gary’s Gang” this version is the real deal.
Hello ,This song is amazing and I am searching this song from the last so many years.
Even after 30+ years, I haven't heard many dance songs better than this!
Monster Jam! When This Was Played Back In The 80's, Everyone Danced And If You Didn't Know How.....You Just Moved To The Music!!!
This music is the best. Disco will never die. Battleground Country Club NJ has 1st and 3rd Friday Disco night's...parteeee. brings me back to good old Brooklyn.
I remember the day w/ the girls. in our high heels. ready to shake the dance floor. LA...these were the GREAT DAYS of city life .
Mandolay...say hey...say Mandolay...最好玩80's disco in hk👏👏👍👍💃💃💃
Love this song cause it was one between hundreds of Disco Funky jams that made us dance like crazies every friday and saturday nites at the disco..🕺
I remember hunting for the longest time to find the very rare 12" single of this when I DJ'd in college. Snapped it up for $20 when the average LP went for $5 from someone in my record pool. Dominated the mid 130BPM slot! Even got the disco haters onto the dance floor.
Yeah I remember seeing those disco hating frauds doing the John Travolta finger pointing to the sky on the dance floors every time
We used to jam the hell outta this song when we were kids; thanks for the post!!
Just heard this tune for the first time on SiriusXM Studio 54....freakin' GREAT tune. Reminds me of the disco days in Spain during the summers when I was a young lad. Good times.
I love love the drums at the beginning. Magical!!!
Who's watching this in 2016? I most certainly am!! This is the music of my childhood, much better than the music that's being played now!!😃😃😉

Nice memories ... Summer in europe ... dancing to this classic disco hit!
Miss my great Latin neighbors in Hunting Park section of Philly, dancing to these pulsating rhythms!!
Yup ! I was in the DISCO era , loved going to discotheques ! I was dancing more than checkin' out the chicks , they had so many good record cuts I was just pulled to the dance floor !
Yeah, back in the day - this was THE best roller skating song, PERIOD!
Ohhhh!!!!! Gracias por subir esta canción recuerdo aquellos años con mis amigos José, Lalo, Hector como los extraño !!!!!!!!!!
Wasn't disco just "it?" Thank God I remember it so well from the radio. I didn't start going out till I was 21 in 1990 - they were still playing some disco, and decent remixes - but I am SURE it wasn't like it was at the zenith of disco.

Saudades imensas da novela ÁGUA VIVA.
Tempos em que éramos felizes, e não sabíamos.
Been Looking For The Name Of This Song Forever and Once I Heard It In Someone's Car I Was Like Hey, So Thank God.
I LOVED to Dance to this Hit at Whistlers on Market St in Charleston S.C......A Huge Jammin' Tune there !!!!
This is Disco, I like it!!!
I love this old school kind of music.no cursing just clean beautiful music🎶
Gawd, I remember dancing to this at the Village Station in Dallas. FIRST club I ever went to.

Brings back memories of doing the hustle and the other latin disco.

La bailé y lo sigo haciendo,un poco más lento por supuesto eso sí con muchas ganas.¡que linda música!¡magnífica!
I was 16 when this song came out, halter tops, daisy dukes, and clogs... The ladies were fantastic!
You can't have any debauchery on Cinco de Mayo without this song. It is such a staple (at least, it is heard often in the cars cruising around on the day here in San José, Califas.)
My jam at Studio 47 in San Jose, California. Those where the days for me, clubbin'!!!
Sure 47 was jumping back in the Days
It was disco odyssey in 78 changed the name in 79 to compete with studio 54 in New York City high heels bell bottoms angel flights suits and platforms. Damn those were the days in San Jose!
