Some of those Stacks recordings still cut the mustard Stevie, but I perfer R&B and Soul from this era. You can stick yer Diana Ross up yer arse IMO

Thats right Stevie, touted as the *new* Donna Summer at the time. Did 2 disco songs before fading into obscurity.
I don't mind admitting that I have On The Radio by Donna Summer.......awsome voice and still sounds good if you can 'ignore' the disco sound from the time
