Stix Hooper the drummer in the band also had a solo album out at that time which had a really good track which used a french squeeze box on it. I can't remember the name of it ! But I still love the the " Inherit the wind" track which really takes me back to my youth and hitting the dance floor to Chic etc.......

Shame you guys are in the US as I bet you'd like to get your mits on my 12"s LOL started buying dance music in the early 70's and have no means of playing them now, all the classics plus....

I'd recommend
David Bendeth - Feel the Reel(1979)
Russ Brown - Gotta find a Way (1987)
Sea Level - Fifty Four (1978)
Or a real classic
George Clinton - Loopzilla (1982)

Sure you'd like all these if you look them up?

Have a good festive holiday and keep up the good work with the blog I visit every day ;0
