Ok, lets be clear I'm discussing the phenomenal Al Green and First Choice. Love & Happiness is frankly, one the greatest songs of all time. The song has maintained a longevity that few can rival. First Choice and Ray Jones have delivered to us an exceptional version in the very deep and soulful tradition of classic house. This track would never fly at gay bar or even your typical straight club but in those deep, small, urban spaces where the really cool people come together to hear true house music the crowd will love you. It is something that will make you do right, something that will make you do wrong.
* I have always wanted the likes of Peter Rauhofer (whom by the way is fan of 60's soul) or lets say DJ Paulo to bring the world a hard, tribal, whaling diva version of this song. Perhaps one day.
