A '70s disco act snapped together by Ian Levine in London, England, to record some tracks originally designated for Tony Hatch's protégés Madam; Levine brought in Sheila Hart, famous for dancing at the celebrated northern soul dancehall Blackpool Mecca club, to redo Madam's sub par takes. And persuaded Towards Tomorrow -- Leon Gough, Damon Black, Don Cowan, and Lamont Thompson -- American G.I.'s who recorded for Movers Records to unite with Hart and christened them Midnight Sunrise. Nothing sold well and they splintered in five different directions. Many, unaware of their history, think Midnight Sunrise was a '90s act because Hot Productions release Best of Midnight Sunrise: On the House in 1995, more than 20 years after their conception.

Your welcome GG, your welcome.
Thank you for your comment. I had this posted on my old channel and didn't receive a single comment in the whole two years it was there which really upset me. This for me was a special release and I'm surprised it's not more widely appreciated or known. Very commercial, but you're right, DAMN HOT!!
Yes, not really what he's known for although I believe he was involved in a few pop hits of the time.
Couldn't agree more. I've actually mentioned that in the notes. Funny thing is, when Farley remixed this track he more or less removed that bass element and the result sounded less like a Farley "Jackmaster" Funk track than this version. I've posted the remix as a video response.
