A quick & dirty 320 re-up!
Another massive tune from my youth. Lisa Lisa & Cult Jam had already ensured I would always love them with the infectious I Wonder If I Take You Home, but this was the killer track for me.
Much like Main Source's Looking At The Front Door, released around the same time, this was built around the gorgeous Fender Rhodes sample taken from "Think Twice" by Donald Byrd (thanks for the spot, Simon!).

It's such huge a testament to that Donald Byrd original that this one little rhodes part can be isolated, looped and multiple whole new, fabulous, tracks span out of it.
Included is the bitesize Radio Mix, which is fantastic, but if you have a spare seven and a half minutes then why not spoil yourself, put your feet up, and dive into the almost Coldcut-esque sample fest and chopped up breakbeat madness that is The Brand New Super Pumped-Up C&C Vocal Club Mix. It's a thing of magnificence.
There's also an aptly named 5 Minute House Version, which I make 5:03 minutes long, which is a classic in its own right, but I can't get past the above.
Really though, this was Clivillés & Cole at their super-producer best, and a great testament to their talent.
