Bass_In_Yer_Face Posted June 5, 2009 Posted June 5, 2009 (edited) Funny that someone posted a thread about boogie nights earlier! I have just been grooovin on bass to this little belter I didn't know existed until yesterday.......what a song!.....now officially my favourite disco song ever..... [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=glrl4LcvU5g"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=glrl4LcvU5g[/url] Can anyone recommend any other Heatwave tracks with funky bass in? (except boogie nights!) Sadly it seems the little fella with the falsetto voice was paralysed in a car crash from the neck down in 1979 and died a couple of years ago. Man those cats can grooooooove...dig the dancing Edited June 5, 2009 by Bass_In_Yer_Face Quote

Thunderthumbs Posted June 6, 2009 Posted June 6, 2009 (edited) I've always loved Groove Line A cover version was done by The Questions on Paul Weller's "Respond" record label after The Jam split, which is how I got into the record to start with. Tidy little band, shame nothing really came of the band, although the singer (Paul Barry) has had a fair deal to do with writing major hits for others....e.g. Cher's "Believe", Enrique Inglesias' "Hero".
