    Jeez, ya know - I was a whoppin' seven years old when this tune was released! I didn't know it at the time just yet, but the cool synthesizer hook is so - COOL! It's so analog. I also didn't know this at the time, and it's still not verified by any source, but I'm pretty sure Steven Greenberg was pimpin' the legendary Oberheim system - well, maybe not quite yet - but an Oberheim synthesizer on this and many other of his tracks. At this time he was still using real drums and bass. But for anyone interested, this track shows where the music was headed. In a few short years after this one came along, everything became electronic. This was a favorite of mine for a spell back in the summer of 1980 when this one was peaking on the charts.

    Steven, where are ya? I'd love to discuss your techniques! Especially on the 1983 and later releases.
