My Daughter wanted some special light for xmas (branded to her fav band) that they all hold up above there heads at k-pop concerts lol what happened to just bouncing around in the mosh pit having the time of your life huh lol.

It was toward the end of their run, several years - and albums - after "Cut the Cake" and "Pick Up the Pieces."

I was 20 in 1980. This, for me, is an all time classic ❤️

lets go around again and again and again and again, oh pure magic , god i fuckin love this

Although this band was classified as a "disco" act, there was nothing pre-packaged or overly commercial about them. They were true masters of R&B, soul, and funk. The term "Blue-Eyed Soul" was made for these guys, though acts as far back as The Young Rascals also worked the territory.

Definitely the best jazz-funk band Scotland has ever produced.

Their self-effacing name to the contrary, 'AWB' were anything but. They crossed the colour line and achieved success and credibility playing funk, with their tight, fiery sound belying their working-class Scottish heritage.

I had the pleasure of meeting these guys in 1981. first I was staying at the same hotel in Cornwall when they played the Cornwall Coliseum, seen them twice in Las Vegas and BB Kings club in New York. Simply the best.
