Durations are not printed on release.

Spoken word sample from beginning of A1 taken from 1970s UK TV series "The Sweeney" (Season 4, Episode 8, "The Bigger They Are", 1978).
Harold Collins: "Are you sure this is going to work?"
Leroy Garner: "Hey, what I say, trust in Leroy, right"
Harold Collins: "What if something goes wrong, hey?"
Leroy Garner: "Run, baby, run"

Also sampled from same episode is the quote "What you staring at? Hey man your positively hostile"
Original white label version had a slightly different quote "What you staring at? You stupid honky bitch!" both by Leroy Garner

Rated 5/5
Review by Magnetonium Jun 11, 2005 (edited over 4 years ago)
If I was asked to pick my favourite house record then this will probably be it. It was a popular club hit at the time of the release, and has been featured on several prominent compilations of such house legends as Eric Morillo and Pete Tong. The track is actually a remake of a 1970s Herbie Hancock's disco hit 'I Thought It Was You', and in my opinion a spectacular remake of this well-respected classic.
