* The Casablanca label's band Ultimate were one of the archetypes of the "eurodisco" sound of the late 1970's (along with groups such as Voyage). In fact, there is a certain similarity between "Love is the ultimate / Dancing in the night / Touch me baby" (the whole of the a-side of their LP) and Voyage's "Souvenirs" or "From east to west". Anyway, it's a great disco track guaranteed to pack the disco floor. From the same album, also listen for "Music in my heart" and "Ritmo de Brazil"
