Leslie, with help from Wilkinson and Raul Rodriguez (creator of the ABBA "Lay All Your Love on Me" Disconet remix earlier in 1981), came up with an eight-plus-minute version that he thought was even better than his more crude remix. Naturally, word got around, which led to an offer from Mike Wilkinson, who was the head of the famous Disconet subscription dance music service. Leslie's remix started to fill dance floors wherever he played it. So, during his off hours, he used the mixer at 12 West to create a seven-minute version that, after he put it on tape, he transfered to a 12-inch acetate. He thought it would be easy to create at home, but because of the way the song was produced, he found it impossible to make the mix he heard in his head. In his head, he envisioned a remix that combined elements of the A-side vocal and B-side instrumental versions. He had been a regular in the booth at the notorious Studio 54, but by 1980 he was working at, among other places, a club called 12 West.

Written by Robin Gibb and Blue Weaver, this became Ruffin's second biggest hit (only the legendary "What Becomes of the Brokenhearted" was bigger). "Hold On to My Love" by Jimmy Ruffin (1980) Nightmare, just a bunch of goddamn, rotten, steaming, raw
