One of the all time PCCs

When I first started this blog, I purposely decided not to start by posting all the tracks which were really well known and everybody either knew about or already had.
Hence, I avoided posting tracks like Voodoo Ray, Promised Land, Let Move Love You For Tonight, House Music Anthem etc.
Most of these tracks were pretty much available on Compilation CDs etc.
However, the time has come to sprinkle a few in.
They are such wonderful tunes and the memories and emotions that they gave so many clubbers will always maintain their status as PCCs.
This is one of my favourites. Hearing this in a club was such a fabulous and emotional experience, you would just float away on a cloud of bliss.
I've mentioned many times of the blog that I'm not a great fan of male vocals, however Keith Thompson's vocal on this are exceptional.
The whole feel and atmosphere of the track, with the wonderfully subtle and understated piano is just spot on!!
You can't beat the enthusiastic panting in the background as well. Ooh err Missus!!
(It's not quite French Kiss, but not a long way off. Lol!!)
I'm sure you all have some great clubbing memories of this one.
There's been loads of remixes and re-working done of this, but none can touch the original.
Tracks such as this which are so inspirational and influential should not be tampered with!!
Enjoy!!

You couldn't be more right: Don't mess this up with pointless remakes/remixes. Great stuff!

Written and produced by Vaughan Mason in 1987 but was not a commercial hit until 1988. Was first promo'd in the Warehouse club in chicago in 1987. Was Raze's first and only commercial success track that led to Vaughan being recognised as significant contributer of house music and prompted his move and set up of own studio in Washington D.C.

Vaughan also collaborated with other house artists and producers including the lesser known but highly original White Knights.

Also one of my all time favs and still strong to this day.
