Pure mad mental, as we used to say in Scotland. WOW, they really just let rip. Good track to dance to if you need to work of some high energy

Il ove these 1976 versions as Donna gets to sing -no screeching. Same with Sunshine Daydream and Stella Blue. Turn on, tune in and turn back time 40 years. You won't regret it.

Just absolutely gorgeous,jazzy jamfest-with little tinkling bells and chimes on at the end. A cliche on this site ,I know, but more folks need to listen to this-25 minutes that will enhance your life.
