      Thanks to my mate - MC Covid-19 - I just discovered this band.
      Without giving you the gory details, I had my favourite 1970s disco track by "The Players Association" - "Turn the Music Up" on UA-cam while I was on the toilet.
      My toilet visit didn't go as expected - and UA-cam ran over into the next video ...
      It was "Take That to the Bank" by Shalamar.
      My ears pricked up - what??? how??? who??? ... I knew it wasn't any of Jamiroquai, Brand New Heavies or Incognito .. must be another mid-1990s acid jazz band I missed ...
      1978.
      I have a very scientific mind - I watched another video to prove it was from 1978.
      I would never have discovered that song if it wasn't for the Covid.
      Happy times.

    The 80s were a golden period in music but black americans made a massive contribution electro, rap, soul, house, techno all came from the most creative community in the world, you gave us joy, absolute ecstasy.

    I was born in 2000 , but can I just say songs from the 70s, 80s & 90s are a great gem. Even the 2000s are amazing too. I don't really listen to new music these days tho.

    This song is fascinating when you really put your ear to it. The rhythm carries the melody throughout the entire song. Yet it's never repetitive or overbearing. There's a lot going on within the instrumentation as well as the vocal performances in every section of the song. No part is exactly the same. Everything in this song just seems to totally click. Great composition and recording. It's a masterpiece of our BLACK culture.

    I'm so glad we reached an understanding
    Now I know my heart is safe with you, hoo
    So now my love to you, baby, I surrender
    Get ready tonight
    Gonna make this a night to remember
    Get ready (oh, baby) tonight
    Gonna make this a night to remember
    Celebrations and my heart could stay united
    And there's nothing in this world to come between me and you
    We're together and it keeps me so excited
    To think of what the power of love can do, ooh
    And I'm filled with a love that's, oh, so tender
    Get ready (baby) tonight (girl)
    I'm gonna make this a night to remember

    To me
    Now to you I make a lasting dedication
    I'll show you all that love and life can be, oh
    And this day that I live I will deliver
    Get ready (this night you won't forget) tonight
