This is great. To me they sort of have a Michael McDonald/Doobie Brothers feel. Was this the same group on Donna Summer "Heaven Knows"?

Yes it was. I always thought they were great back in the day, Wasn't Donna Summer's husband a member of the group?

When they became her background singers, their group career was put on the back burner. Bruce Sudano did go on to become a prolific songwriter working with Brenda Russell, Donna Summer and others. Later he became Donna's husband.
