“You’re Looking Hot Tonight” was one of three new songs recorded for Barry Manilow’s thirteenth studio album Greatest Hits Vol. II., released in 1983 The single did well in the US peaking at #25 AC and #18 Dance, in the UK the single peaked at #47.

As a bonus track, I included the “Disconet Extended Edit” in Disconet Program Service Volume 6 Program 8 in 1984.

To my knowledge, all of the remixes on this 12″ are vinyl-only. The b-side track “Let’s Get On With It” is from the 1982 Barry Manilow LP “Here Comes The Nigh” aka “I Wanna Do It With You”.
