Rockers Revenge - "Walking On Sunshine"

[areyoureadytojump]

I was looking at a Billboard magazine from Sept. 1982 and saw this was charting in the UK.

This is a classic early 80s boogie/electro/post-disco track.  Was a hit on R&B radio in the 80s. I occasionally heard this song in the old school mixes on WGCI, B96, and later V103 when I was younger.   However, my best memory of this song was the acapella being sampled on a 1989 house track "Sunshine 89" by Fax Yourself, which I often heard on the weekend dance mixes on B96.
