Peter Brown - Baby Gets High from Back to the Front (1983, RCA).

I discovered this track via the House of Enigma, whose Father Aaron Brown posted a video of himself practicing vogue to this track, which he called an Old Way favorite. A little investigation revealed that not only was Peter Brown the first artist to have a million selling 12", but he also co-wrote a major early hit of Madonna's, "Material Girl."

Anyhow, this is some smooth funk with unobtrusive bass, high-riding strings, and something that I always hear people professing to hate—the cowbell. Y'all need to shut the hell up as soon as possible.
