The first thing I noticed on the album sleeve art was “Wow, Eddie Murphy has quite a package”. Hahaha, of course I would notice that. Anyways, thanks for posting this Paul, not sure I remember this song. I look forward to checking it out.

Thanks DJPaul!
This is one of the best remixes by Shep Pettibone (in my opinion).
Great editing without his usual collaboration with The Latin Rascals.
Respect.

… listening better to the editing on the remix/dub, The Latin Rascals were probably not credited!

This is masterpiece and gift from you. Thank you for your hard work and dedication to bringing all of this music to light again in high quality.

Any chance “I Do You” or “Private Number” are in your line up?

Such a wonderful song to start our week off right, Paul!! This is such an energetic summery song that gets the adrenaline flowing. I so love the soundtracks from the 80’s and this one was excellent. I hear they have re-released the CD remastered, but you are the only one to give us the 12-inch extended versions. You are such a sweetie and I so appreciate it all so very, very, VERY MUCH!!

Have a great day, Paul!!

I really dug those multi-edits by Shep Pettibone and Tuta Aquino, Paul. And those fantastic orchestra hits/stabs. Fun stuff in wonderful fidelity.

Thanks Again!!!
