I wish they'd release their only LP on CD. Great song!

FOTH did a nice cover of RMTTR but IMO Chaka's version is tops on my list.

The song was originally recorded by the group Rosie [[David Lasley, Lynn & Lana Marrano). It can be found on their 1976 RCA album "Better Late Than Never" which was produced by Genya Ravan and Harvey Goldberg. David and Lana were the co-writers of the song. BTW David sang background vocals on the Chaka version.

I had no idea that David Lasley was in a group called Rosie! Gotta give their version a listen.

Thanks, Brother_love.

They recorded two albums for RCA in the 70s. Ula Hedwig [[FOTH) was a member at one point. Great group and great records they just got lost due to disco taking over. Rosie had a great sound and should have been pushed further. Both of their albums were reissued on CD in Japan years back.
