Not often do I leave a footnote, as I usually allow the music and status of the record to speak for themselves. However, much respect is due to Mr Seymour Nurse (Thebottomend.co.uk) for the incredibly hard work put in over a long time to reveal, at long last, the true identity of the artists / history behind this incredible tune which helped to shape the jazz dance scene way back in the early 1980's....such a long time ago! Thankyou once again
