Back in the late 80s, Danny Poku (or has he was better known Danny D), experienced both commercial underground success as D Mob. Danny was one of the earliest of the British producers to put his own stamp onto the House sounds that were emerging from the USA. This particular track featured the sultry vocals of Cathy Dennis and the vocal mix enjoyed significant airplay. It was however the "Keys II My Love Mix" that captured the imagination of the clubbing fraternity. It contains what has to be one of the most impressive keyboard solos found in a house track even now. Former Squeeze pianist Jools Holland delivers a virtuoso performance and the driving funky bassline create an irresistible force urging you to the floor. It's not a track I listen to that often but nearly three decades later it still makes me smile every time.
