Just discovered Leon today. Now I’m obsessed with finding everything he’s done.

I discovered him about a year ago, too. It's too bad we don't have more live performances from this legend.

I love this song. I remember some years back listening to it on headphones while walking through my hometown of Cardiff, UK, on a warm summer evening, and being blissfully transported to an imagined utopian paradise of California in the 70s/early eighties.

And I can understand you feeling that way, despite Calif having its share of problems, even back in the late 1970's, it was a quantum improvement over the Wash DC area.........not just the gorgeous climate, especially SoCal. RIP to when the Golden State was truly 'golden'.

Bro makes me feel thankful for being from California

very sorry to learn that legendary soul artist Leon Ware has died,

One of the finest soul artists of all time, Carleen great saw her live and the rapper on point, just I weren’t there damm

Absolutely love Carleen Anderson's performance/s with Leon Ware.

Oh how I wish I learned of Mr. Ware earlier. Since stumbling upon this song I just have to play it every day. I love it so much. I don't live anywhere near Cali but this song makes me want to go there so badly.

Carleen Anderson is something else and there vocals meshed resl well together on this RIP Leon Ware one of the greats for sure legendary

Love Leon Ware, and in love with Paradiso Amsterdam. Best vibes in the world.!!!!

Wow, Leon Ware. Love this groove.

Wow imagine being in the audience, this is so crisp and tight love it 😍❤️

One hell of a concert from PBS back in 2001 R.I.P. Mr. Ware the king of cool .M

This is my favorite song by Leon Ware and may R.I.P. The band is very nice.

I fell in love with this song, because during my first trip to the Golden Gate Bridge, this song started playing on my playlist. Was it fate or coincidence? I will never know.

I totally dig this!!!

How did I miss this act? Came hear on a David Paich recommendation.

Groove❤❤❤

Gotta love Leon Ware and California, preferably Los Angeles!!

1981, London. Horizon radio signed of with this tune followed by Pieces of a Dream's Warm Weather. I taped the show, and rinsed these two tunes forever. I also partied at Paradiso in Amsterdam in the late 80s/early 90s. Good times! (BTW Carleen Anderson was in the Young Disciples I think, not Brand New Heavies. The wonderful N'Dea Davenport was lead for BNH). Great great video. Thanks

Thank God for class-act, Leon Ware!

CLASSIC ANTHEM RARE GROOVE ON THE LONDON SCENE BACK IN THE DAY !!! BIG UP FROM LONDON TO THE MAN MR. LEON WARE WITH THIS BOMB !!!

This was NOT Rare Groove at the time. Yes it was played a lot and yes you could call it an anthem, but this 'phrase' is well over used. Perhaps if you tried finding it now - as vinyl - it could well be 'rare groove'.

neofunkyman1 Dear Neofunkyman, Featured on Classic Rare Grooves Volume 1 back in the 90's complied by Mastercuts. All though I still agree with you an overused phrase Rare Groove !

This song pretty much covers why I moved to Calif from the cold/snowy Wash DC area in the late 1970s. RIP Leon Ware, till we meet again. ^^^

Im delighted to watch leon's live. thanks!

Música muito boa passa o tempo e continua viva como se fosse daquele momento de agora

1978 for me; Wash DC native. left that area and, have yet to return, even for a visit. Now in Arizona but, the COL here is a fraction of coastal Calif.

i like it - think the harmonic changes gives it a good modern feel.... it's carleen anderson's vocals that make it though, her vocals are something else and really classy

🤩👌

Excelent

great musicianship. Vonj
