Now this is some disco herre! "Love Comin' At Ya", a "disco" smash or whatever? This is so not disco, no disrespect herre, how about R&B or dance.

Anyway I heard this last night for the first time. It was a huge hit in the UK as well hitting number 9. 1976 was the year.

Jean Carne did a great cover too. It was written by Van McCoy who did "The Hustle."

Not disco in the traditional sense, but early 80's disco/R&B. Oh yeah, this is a nice song, too!

It was one of her biggest hits.

Her vocals were incredible. Disco week was her best week.

This Is It only got to #91 on the Hot 100 in 1976
