Too good for a hit or shit thread, what do we think of this 1970 hit?

First time I hear it, really nice. A strong BS&T flavour but better than many of their songs (have to say I have some problem with David Clayton Thomas singing)

Yeah, I hear BS&T too. It's absolutely ridiculous but kind of fun.

That Pearl and Dean style horn riff is killer! It's kind of proto-disco really.

I think this WAS a "Hit or Shit" not long ago!

No. Horrible bombastic fakery.

It sounds like David Clayton Thomas, but somehow avoids being irritating.

The other Chicago horn band, of which there were actually many. Better than the Wham abomination.

Hit!
And I love the guitar solo.
For all of its bombast, it absolutely works.

No. Horrible bombastic fakery. Why are you putting in a fake quote from me?

I guess he was anticipating your response, G.

I guess he was anticipating your response, G. I'm perfectly happy for him to have his opinion.
