Number one on my Urban Gold list! I love this song to death! Rell & Truth Hurts sampled this on their big hits in fact their biggest hits, imagine that. This is BT Express' biggest hit as well before Michael Jones aka Kashif joined the band at age 15.
#9 CHR R&R #2 Hot 100 #1 BB R&B 1974

This is a pretty good song. I liked how their was the moaning at the end. It made it a really memorable song.
And I'm surprised that R&B singer Truth Hurts didn't get sued for sampling the beat from this song. She didn't just use the Indian song, she used this one too.

Yes! I dig this, the long version with the 1 note organ vamp in the middle. I saw them do this on an old 70s show called Wonderama, and apparently someone didn't tell the producer to use the A-side of the single, because the band on stage was minus one organ on stage, and you heard that note come out in the middle of the song! D'oh!!!
Some other cool tunage by BT Express include "Peace Pipe" "Can't Stop Groovin..." "Express" and "Give It What You Got."
