This was the signature song of the Disco/R&B group. It went on to be remixed and remade many times and it was also sampled a lot too. The spoken part 3/4 of the way through and the "oh yeah!" parts have been sampled the most.
The original version was on their album Delusions in 1977.
A remix by Walter Gibbons was done in 1979.
It was finally a single in 1983 with new remixes by Shep Pettibone and Frankie Knuckles. Shep's version is the most well known version of the song. It stays true to the original. Frankie's version had heavier drum work and was funkier. Even though it peaked at #13 on the Club Play chart, the song is a classic and was very influential to the creation of what we now know today as House music.
Mary J. Blige covered this on her 1999 album Mary. Even though it wasn't a proper single, it had remixes.
I am a huge fan of the 1983 versions of this. It still sounds fabulous today. I only recently found out about the original 1977 version and I like that one too. It was nice to hear how this song changed and evolved into the hit versions.
