This is a possibly overlooked gem on Soul II Soul's follow-up set to 'Volume 1', which of course was a huge worldwide smash in 1989. This cut was a bit different from Vol. 1, not least in its featuring an instrumental solo lead from the awesome Courtney Pine (who lets loose big style 2/3 of the way in!) and had that shuffling, early urban soul feel & a groove I found irresistible both then and now! I've tried to to imagine what an early 90s 'early urban' mix of this might have sounded like, using reverb and 'reverb slaps' as well as the odd scratch and de-pitched moment, all pretty big stuff (as I remember) in your typical early 90s urban soul track of this type. Hopefully I've managed to capture something of that flavour - and hope you enjoy it!
