****It's the year 3000, young historians discovery this song thinking its the original. No No, No young one. It's the remix. The original has yet to be discovered. However, that's okay. this version is mighty fine as well.****
No se pero no puedo dejar de escuchar es tema son de los que escucho una y otra vez y nunca me canso de escuchar. Gracias. Saludos especiales desde El país de la Eterna primavera Guatemala.
Despite that the fact that (see below) most of you probably know this tune from what I call disco stations; you may be surprised to hear that the first time I ever heard this tune was performed live at a concert I recorded at the Santa Monica Civic (but I don't sell i.e. bootleg my tapes) played by a band called "Reconstruction". That band "Reconstruction" got its name rather from the post-Civil War instead from the reunion of indeed black and white folks in the band namely; principally the late Merl Sauders (black) on keyboards and Jerry Garcia (white of Grateful Dead fame) on guitar and Jerry's usual bass player the late John Kahn (white) who played with him in almost all of his non-Grateful Dead bands (except the earliest ones, one of the last of which was from where he previously played with Saunders and the partial reunion of one of his earliest bluegrass ensembles). This band (which only played over the course of the year 1979) also included a black drummer, a white trombonist, and a black sax player Ron Stallings who also was the one who sang this tune! Hence, mistakenly for some time I thought it was composed by him. However even though I eventually elsewhere learned I was as I just said, mistaken (as I'm always happy to be corrected if I'm wrong) as well as another somewhere else indeed, did I learn not only that is it also co-written by Alfons Kettner; moreover intriguingly that Bobby Caldwell interestingly can play a little bit of guitar, which makes me have a little bit more respect for him than I do for folks who can't or even if they can play some instrument, but don't on stage, yet who knows for this studio version? Yet I've got mixed emotions about these so-called remixes they usually really suck badly? He does for some but not all performances, that otherwise I've seen on here, actually play a bit of keyboard and maybe on other tunes as well? Which is for one thing (see below near the end) despite Michael's lack of instrumentalism, at least with some of the them, why I went to see the Jacksons in concert! (Meaning like in his relatively recent performances with his own band as opposed to as I'm about to describe.) To my shock this does not include his very earliest days when he played drums including on as I had forgotten, given as they are in my vinyl collection which is presently in storage in terms of not remembering his name regarding the first one mentioned ahead until I was reminded, thanks to another video posted here to which again to my amazement, and by which I must in all fairness retract some of what I wrote in terms of what it seemed at first was his apparent lack, and then only little bit, (as I said above), of instrumentalism; that is for his early primary role as principal drummer and later as backup percussionist (F.E. at the end of this sentence below) which then came back to mind yet I as I just said still for the other don't recall even though I have both them namely; Johnny Winter And "Live" and The Allman Brothers Band (a band that if you don't already know had already without him two principal drummers) "Live at the Fillmore East" which if you don't already know, are very legendary to say the least!) Yet since I try to, (for which I know you'll be shocked despite as I am for most other things not such a snob, but when it comes to good or in this case, bad music I admit I tend to be a bit offensive but in any case, remember as is written at the very end below), if it's up to me which obviously often times it's not, avoid listening to disco in that I'm sorry but much of which, yet not all that is played on those disco type stations or the somewhat more tolerable so-called "Smooth" (my rear end) to which I refer as fake pseudo-jazz stations (such as Stevie Wonder (a genius) whom I've seen live more than once and a bit of "Earth Wind and Fire" (for the same reasons I stated in regards to the Jacksons) and likewise Ray Charles etc. neither of which by the way, do I consider derogatorily as disco) otherwise as far as I'm concerned for the most part sucks! Especially the male falsetto (a term from opera (which I also mostly but again not all, hate)) singing, like for example the late Michael Jackson even though I saw as I said above, the Jackson 5 on their last tour at the L.A. Coliseum in the early '90's(?), (you probably remember when, better than I). Most importantly, as Duke Ellington said "There's only two kinds of music good and bad"! Augy, San Diego
what youre calling disco a lot of people are referring to as smooth jazz. thats what ive mostly seen the original bobby caldwell song labeled as. this is a house remix of bobby caldwell(whos still alive and touring) and youre comparing it to a band you seen live? literally your wall of text is so off putting and irrelevant that its cringeworthy.
That dude rambling has got to be white. Only white people ramble and offput with a wall of words like this. Lucky i can just close my eyes and listen to the music, yeah?
My eyes have never been graced by a Literal short story worth of rambling i couldnt even follow the contect of it. One monent your on about one band then it switchs to another thing in the middle of a sentence. Im stunned
