GE thanks for sharing.👍 Out of nowhere i was just thinking of those horns, rhythm, & singing. You can dance 💃 🕺 if you want to. I still have this song on my tape from when i recorded this song from the radio. 📻 😂 Still 🔥🎤🎷🎺🪇🎹🪘 in 2023 & beyond. Shout out to D.C. Be Safe Everyone🌎😷
This just came on WHUR...WHAT A FLASHBACK! I immediately jumped up in my house.. I stayed on the dance floor with this one OMG...WOO CHILD! one of DMV's FINEST!! RIP Lorenzo...THE TOP THE BOTTOM THE SIDE THE REAR... YES!!
They really should do a tribute to this awesome group & should play this as much as possible…”especially in the DMV”…genuine sound…from a genuine era…with that original google sound!!!
WOW WOW WOW…my mind INSTANTLY went back to being 20 in 86…❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥🥳🥳🥳💃🏽 I sent this to my daughter and told her this was mine and her dads song in the beginning of our relationship.
This is killin me!!! This is my favorite all-time Go-Go/Junkyard jam!!! Love me some Chuck and Trouble Funk too (so don't hate!). But I remember DJ Kool..that's right DJ Kool mixing this song for about a 30 minute set at the Room(just brought back some memories 4 a few real GoGo soldiers)! He had the lights flashing to every horn blast! Remember it like it was yesterday (we all know it wasn't...lol). You Can Dance was so hot DJ's had to play it every 20/30 minutes or got stepped to! hahaha
This is the one I heard on Washington D.C. radio in the late 80s mixed with Janet Jackson's Nasty! So glad to get to hear this again. I really enjoyed this one. That electric guitar solo starting at 4:26 was it.
Go Go Lorenzo is truly a legendary Go Go pioneer. I remember when I used to see him and the Pet Boys Band perform at the Black Hole and the old WUST Music Hall. He was a cool brother he will be missed. His reminded me alot of John Cabalou with his talking skills. R.I.P. brother.
Go Go Lorenzo used to come to my Friday Night parties in Silver Spring MD. back in 1978 - 1980. He used to come with that crew from Uptown! George, Jamie, Catfish, Eric..them duded from 15 St. (they all grown now). Lorenzo and my boy Catfish were tight. I wonder how he's doing and if he even remember me. He's been over my crib a couple of times. He was a cool brother. I saw him on "Go Go Live A the Cap center" and was like WOW!!
Man, where did you find this joint, LOL! I actually played trombone (horn n' horn) back in 86' for him at his shows, wow! I had lost this copy, I'm glad you have it, thanks, I'ma put it on my favorites! Cisco a.k.a. Go Go Frank ! (yep, born and raised P.G. bama in L.A. now still doin' music . . .)
This song was out my freshman year @ John Marshall High in Richmond, VA. I was a 9th grade running back playing varsity (1987-1991). Someone was banging this out in the parking lot after we spanked Petersburgh High 52-14...LOL!! Big Shout to my Richmond, VA crew!!! #27 JAYEM All Day!!
3-11-23 still play the vinyl to this day. What a great funky song. It brings back a lot of good memories. I can’t dance like I used to but the memories are worth the smiles. Thx U
killer track, this was the time Go Go was trying to get the foothold.... ...then came New Jack Swing and House muzik which edged it out of the mainstream view and by the late 80s it was the beginning of Golden Era Hip Hop, BDP and PE and no-one (apart from Native Tongues fans) was that interested in just having fun....
Yo Bullet! It's great to hear from you bra! Yeah, a lot of great memories came with this song! Let me know if ya'll ever want to do a re-mix, I'm definitely down to contribute in anyway, and, I'll be back in DC next month for awhile, so holla anytime. bless!
jay bone did performed on you can dance, say no to drugs and top bottom side and rear jay bone was outstanding on the track. also ron reace performed on you can dance keyboards stabs and keyboards improv on breakdown mid song.
@ESSENCEOFEACHTHING I just dug it out of storage a few months back. This joint isn't on there - the tape came out a couple years after. From what I can remember, HCS is backing him up on his side. PM me with an email addy and when I get it ripped, I can hit you off.
Proud owner of the original 12" vinyl. Still enjoying this awesome tune in 2023.

First time I've heard this and I didn't know what to expect. It bubbled under the Top 40 in the UK around the tail end of 1986. Nice groove.
My cousin Billy introduced me to this song. He was shot and killed. I play this to remember him.
This gogo joint influenced me to play congas and gogo music.peace from Paris, France..
This still is still one of my all time favorite gogo joints!
I saw them perform this in 1987 at the Capital Center. They jammed it too. Go Go Lorenzo. Have no fear!!!
You can dance if you want.🕺💃🎵🎶
