Too cool! I love when James Ingram goes non-ballad! =)
The Beverly Hills Cop soundtrack is one of the best of the 80s…the second installment is just as good.
One of the rare James Ingram remixes from the 80s too.
Thanks Richie!
DJRICHIEP!!!!! You are the best!!! I bought this single and ripped it this week. However my rip did not go so well as it kept scratching on the instrumental and bonus beats. I was scanning the internet and who do I find? Well I want to thank you again my friend for putting on such an awesome single. I hail you as the KING!!! FUNWITHVINYL FOR LIFE!!! Thanks;-)
You’re welcome Kevin, love the enthusiasm!
