Thanks for coming here!

Actually, I'm now looking for ONE title only -- yes, I managed to find all the previous ones thanks to great sites like the All Music Guide, and Discogs (also thanks to other sites and 80's fans, in the past). So, what is this remaining title from the past, I can't seem to find? >> A new 'elec-funk' version of Tavares "It Only Takes a Minute" << (that I recorded from a Funky radio, in France, in 1988) Some facts about it that I'm sure of: - The original version was released in 1975, it's more Disco than Funk. >> I found it on several Tavares albums, it's NOT the version I'm looking for. - In 1986, there was a 12" Remix of this title, made by Ben Liebrand. >> I purchased it on Vinyl, but... disappointment, it's not the one I SO want. ( I soooo thought it could be the one!... but nope... :/ ) - In 1993, the band Take That covered this song, but obviously... >> It's not the one ("my" version is from 1986-1988, as stated above). - In 1994, finally, there was a re-recording of the song, by Tavares themselves, but... >> It can't be the one either, for the same date reason. And now, here is a sample of this title I want so much, as it was recorded from that old tape, back in 1988 -- so don't blame me for the poor sound quality ;) >> Download - 482 240 bytes - [1:00] - MP3 - 64 kbps - Mono You will be able to notice (I hope) that it's very different from all the previously mentioned versions of the song: - It's got more funky, harder drums - It's got a totally different bass-line - It's got those typical elecfunk synth sounds - And it's a bit slower than the 1975 & 1986 versions (118 BPM against 123 BPM) The problem is that I'm not sure at all that it's really Tavares singing... And apparently, it's not, otherwise I would have found this "funky-er version" in one of their albums/best of, or something, after all these years... Sooo... here I am, relying on you now, to help me identify that special version/cover. Thanks for your time if you decide to download the sample and try to recognize it. Maybe one of you will recognize the singer's voice? Please, MAIL ME, at once, if you do so! :) Thank you.
