- Classic tune with Larry levan in the Mix.
The single was revived eight years later in a disco version by another Motown group, The Jackson 5. The Jacksons had replaced the Supremes as the label's top-selling act during the early 1970s and by 1975 were going through problems with Motown and making plans to leave the company. The Jackson 5's version peaked at number sixty on the pop chart in the U.S., but became a number-one hit on the Billboard dance chart. The single's B-side, "All I Do Is Think of You", was later extensively covered and sampled by contemporary R&B and hip hop artists.
this is NOT a larry levan mix of this song. this is simply the funk brothers (motown house band) original lp mix, & it was like having a religious experience when it was played in the garage, clubhouse, catccombs & any number of underground soulful house, disco, & r&b venues throughout the country, possibly world. simply put, IT KILLED A DANCE FLOOR
The bottom line was that Larry Levan just loved playing this track in the Paradise Garage! If you ever heard this song at the Garage it sounded so spiritual !
Never made it to The Garage. I think I heard it at The Gallery though.
What this is not is a remix. But what this is, is a Larry song being played on a system that brings out the best of what this song has to offer. Larry was never scared and he would make it last forever, forever, forever ...
Our memories will
Never die...
What a different Society than now...
Never would have thought In a thousand years that forever came today would be a club classic always liked this record as a kid the bass line is hot r.I.p Larry Kevan
poops levan
I use to lose all control when Ron would beat this. Baby, the Box would be jumping. I use to stomp when Ron would take out the bass and all we’d hear is the midvoice and tweeters. Ron’s edited version was beatin. Ron would bring it all the way down and we would scream. Allllllllll Right Ron, then i’d say you betta beat it damit. RIP RON.
Preach ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This is one of my all-time favorites. It gives me LIFE!!
Peace, I never saw Larry Levan, never been to the Paradise Garage but I did get a chance to see his partner in music Frankie Knuckles. The movement these men (and others) started in NYC gave birth to the Chicago House music culture. This brings back memories of a great childhood. I hope that these guys knew how much they impacted the world. I have heard records he remixed and this man was a bad man on the wheels of steel. Peace to Paradise Garage, the Warehouse, the Box, Medusa's, Mendel and other great clubs !!!
I came here 2 hear a Ron Hardy mix. But this will do 2! 💃🏽🕺🏾
Boy do this a brother back, I remember getting my first membership to the Garage , every Saturday me and my boys would get together and do our Thing, Larry was the Man, to this day he the best DJ, i ever heard and I'm 51. I miss those day the unisex bathrooms the crowd, the roof top. the performers from Sylvester to Denroy Morgan. Those were the Days RIP (Larry)
Larry l. R.i.p. peace & ❤😢
Paradise Garage!!!! 84 King Street, NYC R.I.P. Larry Levan.
YES MY BROTHER ALL U SAID ENOUGH SAID !
(MAKE IT LAST FOREVER),''THE PARADISE GARAGE!!
there were some clubs that could be compared to THE GARAGE, but that was then,, i don't think there will ever be another like it... some may try.. but ......
i feel you, bro. i kinda think the shelter was close 2nd after paradise. but your correct nothing will compare to Larry spending the turn tables at the garage. man those were the days.
I was lucky enough to experience Paradise just once. Musically the impact was everlasting.
Awesome mix. Sometimes we don't know of the DJ's and music mixers who are behind the success of alot of musicians/music. R.I.P. Larry Leven.
Expected to hear an LL remix. This is the original version from the album “Moving Versions”.
I can honestly say I have been to Paradise!
Paradise Garage NYC!
One of my all time favorites
this is off the Moving Violation Album back in 1978. It was done at Motown.
1975 bruh!
This should've been a massive chart hit, it did reach No1 on the Billboard Disco Action chart
I was born in raised in ny mom moved us to b-more i was under age at the time but my uncle worked in the A&R at CASABLONKA RECORDS so that was not a problem going with him. When Larry played this song it was magical i would give anything to relive those wonderful nights.
Who still has there P.G. membership card???? Lets me know, who was there, or who "heard", about being there!!! LoL. 84 King St. MAKE IT LAST FOREVER!!!!!
David Jones..I still have mine
Happy Birthday in heaven Larry RIP 7-20-2012
@daryllharris love your comment,especially "many ships in the sea !!" You're right...all good! We carried on as much in the Nickel Bar or any other little dump as much as when we went to the Garage......no matter what town,there was a club back then, and we worked it for all it was worth !!!
God, I got all excited when I read "Larry Levan Remix". Alas, it is the original album version. Still great, but not Larry. Some of the contradictory comments below are kinda funny.
I do recommend you give a listen to the Frankie Knuckles' Director's Cut Late Night Antics Remix if you'd like to hear an actual remix of the album version you're listening to here. It's also available on UA-cam. DJ Robbie Leslie
True words about the great Larry Levan!!
let that air come down on me...SCREAM
Suddenly my world was Michael Jackson 🥰💃🕺🎵🎶🥁🥁✨🌻🤴👸🏆🙈🧕🌷🥇
FOREVER AND EVER...........
...you're right about the Saint !! By the early 80's I was in college in Philly but now couldn't afford the trip to NYC as often....but as a white kid with lots of black friends I can vividly remember (especially in Philly and Atlantic City) while I had no trouble getting "memberships" to the "better" clubs, my black friends would be barred at the door or hassled for ID,etc. (this being the early to mid 70's)..owners said the blacks would only dance and not buy drinks !
You are so right...when it boiled down economics has always caused the disparity.
Yes. Just yes. It can't be said enough.
i always like this version of this song, mix sounds the same
I 👌this re- mix
Sounds the same as the album version to me. I don’t hear a remix.
Me and Michael 1 year apart... So Sad. I chased my first girlfriend playing Run, Catch, Kiss
Far better than The Supreme’s version.
@daryllharris I don't think this is the Funk Bros. I played on a couple of songs on this album, and I'm pretty sure this was James Gadsen on drums, John Barnes keyboard, Maybe Ben Benay guitar, Wali Ali, guitar, Sylvester Rivers, keyboard, Maybe Anthony Newton on Bass, because that was who Brian Holland was using a the time.
no disrespect to larry, luv'd the garage too, but it's incorrect that he "broke" forever came today. it came out n 75, garage opened in 76. by that time, forever came today had already been a bonifide hit in clubs better days, the loft, (nyc), & several underground dance music clubs up/down eastcoast.i dj'd at one such unsung clubs n b'more "childrens place. luv that garage's legacy has lead to a better understanding & appreciation for club music, but there were many ships in the sea. all good.
it was how he mixed it
Forever Came Today J5
Remix
Oh Wow Dj Larry When Did He Passed He Was An Awesome Dj
...and most of the white gay crowd didn't like Larry's music (they went to Flamingo) But by the time I satrted to go, Tee Scott (Better Days) and Larry were playing and that's why I sais it should be mentioned it was primarily Black and Gay on Saturday nights. Don't forget Blacks and Hispanics (and women) weren't really welcome at most clubs back then which is why it IS important to point out the fact ..
@dirtyedna I was the DJ that replaced Tee in 1981. I played five nights a week till 1988 when John Gotti bought Better Days and turned into Bedrox. Better Days had a very similar crowd to Larry. Ofetn people would begin their nights at Better Days (we had a bar and $3 entry got you two free drinks. B)) and then head off to King Street when I closed at 5 or 6 AM. I usually went with my crowd, mainly Saturdays..
The "Garage" for white gay guys was The Saint, an amazing club in its own right.
Better Days was my first gay club, and it BLEW my mind to see soo many men dancing. In my innocence, I initially thought it was weird to leave 1 club at 5am to got to ANOTHER , the Garage. I finally got there the last year it closed including closing weekend. I DEF woulda been dancing while u spun.
@@MA-yh2ko Thanks for remembering 💗
Amen.
@ijace1 ...well, for one thing, it is nice to look back to a time when we ALL could hang out together in a club like the Garage. I'm now reading a book Love Saves The Day/Tim Lawrence( a history of american dance culture,1970-1979) which goes in a great deal of history of the Garage as well as all of the club scene in NYC...apparantly the Garage was almost a failure in the beginning because they couldn't get the fickle white crowd..the place was empty alot.
This is the shit!! I have never been to the Garage, but I heard Larry would kill this!!
Turn it up!!!
GOOD SHIT!!!!!
You right about about that... I believe this was mixed by BRIAN HOLLAND and L.T. HORN...
@dirtyedna many hispanics and straight people hung out at the garage as well and not only on Friday nights. I went there on Saturdays and I'm straight and hispanic.
@dirtyedna You got that right!! the majority of the crowd on Saturday's were black and Puerto Rican and gay and on Friday's the demographics were the same but it was more straight/mixed crowed. The Loft was another club that mostly black/puerto rican gays went to. Better days was off the hook but did you ever go to Flamingo? if so, how was it?
I got the chills when I read this.I was there in the 70's from the Garage,the Loft and Better Days.
Bang that shit
cut copy spinning on my stereo now XD
Wrong! Check out Frankie Knuckles mix. That's a remix now!
this is not the funk brothers this is l.a.s wrecking crew berry had left detroit and the funk brothers by this time...get your facts straight before you post
Actually cupcake, IT IS the funk brothers (motowns house band). So, why don't you try reading the label next time......before u post! Smooches!
@daryllharris .....you should mention that those clubs were all basically Black and GAY...people need to know that we can look back with pride and respect,if for no other reason than to remember all the thousands of us who are not here now TO look back and remember, because we remember them.......
Never really cared for the Jackson's version.
cupcake...for real serious..smooches..serious..damn...this is the jacksons.no bitchey cat fiights please.just enjoy the music.damn...CUPCAKE ? WTF
Turn it up!!!
