best cut on Gwen Guthrie's Padlock

getting hot or padlock if i think about it

Every time I hear the intro to Stevie Wonder's "Hey Love" I think it's Padlock coming on. Can't help but think that was an influence, if not subconsciously. Love both records.

Missed this thread, but would have given a much deserved vote to Getting Hot.

we're getting hot
getting ready for the best time in your life

this is my favourite music ever.

I don’t know the answer

(but it might be “Hopscotch”)

(or whichever track I happen to be popping to at that moment)

(right now that’s “Peanut Butter”)

wanted to post these perfect moments in time:

This is the best music ever

The Larry Levan mix of peanut butter is my favorite song right now

The LL mix of hopscotch and padlock are also excellent

Btw isn’t this album titled PORTRAIT?

Hmmm. But why would you Padlock a Portrait?

Unless you're Dorian Gray.

Oh wait I see Padlock is an EP of the Larry Levan mixes for this?

Yeah that’s the definitive version then
