 Ta,

Great track - has anyone heard the Jaydee version (from 'Welcome To
Detriot' on BBE)? Super smooth.

Seems weird that *another* Detroit producer is covering the song, great
though it is...aren't there any more great 70's tracks that can use an
update? Or am I missing the point?

Cheers,

Andrew

Dunno, if this is it, but there is a rather feeble chart version rip 
off of 'Think Twice' getting a fair bit of radio play at the moment. 
It basically loops the female vocal You know we gotta think twice 
bit ad infinitum.


My question is, why ignore the funky breakdowns, there's at least two 
in the song? Sorry for OTness.

Too true mate!

I trust Craig  co, and know their version will be one of quality and
distinction - but I'll do my best to avoid comparison with the original,
which is still almost 30 years after recording - to me - a groove in which a
pure type of joy is embedded!

yeah, I noticed this too.  maybe that either a) there's some particular detroit 
relevance about this track, like it was really popular here or or b) its sound 
coincides with Detroit sensibilities, maybe even subconciously.  But I guess 
the second
has to be the case, obviously!
