    Unless you actually lived through those golden years of the 1970’s you will never understand what it was like to be a young male living in such a time when we had real music such as this . . I’m now 64 and still love this fantastic decade of music and when I had my own mobile disco this track was a floor filler of the highest order. So let’s hear it for the Players Association and the superb 1970’s.

    1979 was a good year with club classics like this. Players Association's horn section was as tight as they came. Jamming this in November, 2022. Rolling back the years. Love it. Thank you Danny Weiss for the gift of music.

For some reason!

    do you know what folks? I think some of us are getting old I turned 50 this year, after reading some of the comments I think we all agree we were so very lucky to have been teenagers in the late 70's early 80's what a era for great music I think it will never surpassed. Now for you younger music fans I would agree also there is some great new stuff today, but believe me any one in there mid 40's or above will back me, our time was the greatest ever for dance music.

    RIP the incredible Bob Berg who plays the sick sax solo starting 3:45. I used to own this record when it first came out and loved it (this was years before I took up playing the sax myself).
    Just heard it played this Sunday afternoon on Jazz FM and thought to myself... hang on...there's only one saxophonist I know who plays riffs just like this... it's Bob Berg surely? Well, after checking the credits in discogs I see I was right. Bob Berg rarely gets a mention anywhere, but in my view was one of the most exciting straight-ahead hard-bop players of his generation, (and perhaps of all time)?
    All hail Bob Berg!

      Hi just wondering if you have any info on this group like what happened to them. I know Chris Hills and another guy was it Danny Weis were the main guys of the band the rest maybe session musicians. Think Hills had a solo career before the players and Weis had a solo album in 87 that sounded like the players.cant find any live performances don't think they were big on self promotion. The came and went pretty quick

    Thanks. Both almost the same age then. Six months ago I wrote that post so I'm now 52. Born in 1961. Bloody hell, I'm getting old. Scary. Anyway, not only did we have good disco music but we had variety, Glam rock, Punk, and New Wave. We had reggae as well. You made sure you watched Top of the Pops every week. There was no Internet, no iPods, no mobile phones and no PC correctness. But we enjoyed ourselves.

    From all the comments, that seem to be coming from the UK, it seems to certify that they were enormous DISCO lovers
    much more so than the USA fans. Surprisingly this brilliant group did not do too well on this shores, never made it to the Billboard list. Very hard to digest, since i consider them to be exceptional.
    And will duplicate all the adulatory praises they posted.

Had this on 12” Vynl back in the day and it is without doubt a jazz funk classic of the highest order.
