You do bring the jams.

The strings on this are magnificent! A+S were prolific people, and so much of it is good!

d- im off for some dancing right now... i hope my night will be like that pic. :-)
cody- indeed, i prefer it to the gladys track which i never was too fond of. its all about the arrangements. a classic.
My Trusted MOGs
Kind of wish I was tonight too....
and Cody, I have to agree with you about the strings, I think I said somewhere before that I don't usually go for strings, but theys a growin on me.
My Trusted MOGs
dz, in earlier years, I hated strings and horns, but today I am a changed man.

I tried my disco brother , but I don't know if the MOG masses are ready.
My Trusted MOGs
hey, cody... i just came back. i changed the video for the original album version... 2 minutes longer, more strings action and better sound quality.
the mog masses are ready, cody. they just dont know it... still a lot of hours before the post expires. :-) going to listen to your post now.
My Trusted MOGs
just to keep things extra juicy im adding an extra disco bomb
My Trusted MOGs
I am feeling some weird love vibe going on 'round here. You know, I'm just saying.
Never been an A and S fan, but Miami jams.
Got me to move my feet. Nice pick.
Is there a "Disco Pile On" in our future?
My Trusted MOGs
hey now a & s is 'class' soul
liked the Disco Bomb lol
hope u an cody have a great weekend
great post thanks x
My Trusted MOGs
not an a&s fan myself either, chris. but i like this instrumental. miami are great, i know of the albums "miami" & "the party freaks on" both worth buying.
i dont know about a "disco pile on" but it could be a great idea.
bnf- glad you enjoyed both tracks, you disco freak..heh ;-)
My Trusted MOGs
They aren't ready for the truth,rocket! I wonder where fistula and soultronica are at, I thought they'd have our back.
My Trusted MOGs
i grew up on top of a disco so i cant help it, cody. i am a disco nut :-) you made a few boogie posts (those classify as disco-funk) in the past with good results, so do not give up on the idea, man. the only way i got a lot of comments posting modern dancehall music was by confessing i was quitting smoking ganja.... got what i am saying? dont take a defeatist attitude on this, line up soldier of disco... lets do the hustle!

classic ashford and simpson fantastic post cheers

Another maestro of strings was Barry White. Touring would be easier for an act to afford if it used an organ to play the strings part.

oceanrain- actualy the only ashford & simpson track i can listen to.
spike- indeed, barry white knew how to make strings sounds sexy too. that is not a bad idea, specialy with todays equipment nobody could tell the difference.
