The label was slow to embrace the sound, which was coming out of places like Miami, New York and Sweden - not Detroit. Hal Davis, a producer at the label, thought it was time to try disco, so he put together this track, which changes from the relaxed, slow, cool opening to a rapid up-tempo groove. The backing musicians included The Crusaders pianist Joe Sample, guitarist Art Wright (overdubbed later), bass player Henry Davis and drummer James Gadson. According to Davis, the session took place at 2 a.m., and he plied the musicians with shots of Remy Martin.\n\nWatch Diana Ross perform Love Hangover live on The Midnight Special (1976): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qJTZrWv5Y9I", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }
