notes
Minimoog lead, the model Wisniak used for Cerrone's mid-70s topline hooks. Lead single from Angelina, recorded in Los Angeles with the musicians backing Toto; reviewers noted a resemblance to Donna Summer's 'Hot Stuff', so the bass and lead lean harder and more rock-inflected than Cerrone's earlier Paris sessions.
