Wow, that is so cool! He remembers it even though he like hasn't even thought about it in so long! Sometimes some of the most unknown people have done work that can be extremely popular.

That's terrific - it was always one of my favorite pieces of SS music, anyway. I had been wondering why the Pointer Sisters were credited on the track, when there were clearly a lot of people working on it.

Even though it's a great piece of music in itself, the "wild lines" he describes with the dropped-in voices saying the numbers really make it. I like the new remix, because it gives a good flavor of what you got from week to week.

Hey, I was wondering if anybody could identify the steel drum player on this cut. I suspect it's Othello Molineaux, but I cant really say for sure.
