The Three Degrees: The Runner (1979). The group had signed with Ariola Records by 1978 and were working with Giorgio Moroder, who brought his disco magic to this song. The Runner is a great track, taken from their 1978 album New Dimensions, which was a solid hit in Europe but not in the US. The B side of the single is simply a longer version of the A side, but the production - along with Sheila Ferguson's voice - means it's worth it.
