professor Eddy said...: Alan Jeffers is a Dutch guy. This is very nice early disco single produced by Martin Duiser, who would work with Sting, Andrea Bocelli, Joe Cocker, Gary Brooker, Toto, Simple Minds and Alan Parsons later on in his career.; July 1, 2011 at 6:16 PM
professor Eddy said...: And Allan Jeffers came to number 24 in the Dutch charts in the early spring of 1978. And I agree, Nicolas, it is a feel good gem!; July 1, 2011 at 6:20 PM
