Ride the Groove

Recorded in New York for the album Turn the Music Up with The Players Association's rotating cast of jazz and session musicians. The track was produced by Danny Weiss, with Chris Hills contributing composition and arrangements. Released in 1979 during the group's commercial peak, it extended their success in the UK club and singles market following the hit Turn the Music Up!. The record reached the UK Singles Chart and reinforced the group's blend of disco and jazz-influenced musicianship. The track remains a staple of late-1970s dance music compilations and is associated with the sophisticated New York studio sound cultivated by The Players Association. It continues to be played by disco and rare-groove DJs and collectors.
