Played both versions on this morning’s show. They work so well together as a Coyote megamix :smiley:

I bought the 12ā€ of this and totally thought it was an edit of some long lost classic. Someone on here pointed out who it was by. Future classic. Disco track on the 12 is also decent.

So I found out recently my girlfriend’s dad recorded some sweet smooth jazz balearica… He gave me a copy of this, his first LP, private press from 1990.

Played this on my show a couple of months back. The message never ages, sadly.
