Just a quick note to all those who are making comments about this record after the Acid House music revolution had changed peoples views on electronic music, if you had heard this tune back in 1983 when it first came out you would know that it really was a ground breaking piece of music and nothing had ever really sounded like it before, it still sounds fresh today where as so many electronic tunes that have been made since sound dated and fade away into obscurity !
