We got a copy at the radio station. It has some of the 12 inch mixes. I had not heard a lot of his music before, but I always liked Dance [[Dance Heat). I listened to his live album Living Proof and thought it was very good, possibly one of the best Live Disco albums ever.
Interesting to see that this set doesn't include this groovy little number ..
Perhaps it hasn't been included as it is virtually instrumental with SYLVESTER only singing a few lines here and there. In the U.K. it came out on a 12" with his mellow duet with JEANNIE TRACEY "Here Is My Love" on the other side.
I saw SYLVESTER "Live" when he visited the U.K. on the back of his Top 10 hit "You Make Me Feel Mighty Real" and it was one of the best concerts I've ever been to, I can still visualise him and the "Two Tons" singing and hugging each other on stage. The backing musicians were very "Cuban"/"Latin" and I've never seen so few people play so many percussion instruments before .. it took my hearing about two days to recover ...

Living Proof is one of my favorite live albums: I can never get enough of that intro of Body Strong when the Two Tons start to sing!
