It was also released as a track on the album "Ronnie Jones Presents Let-Your-Body-Go-With-The-Disco" released on the Phillips record label in Italy and it received numerous radio plays there as listed in "Radiocorrier". A live performance of the song featuring Ford, his orchestra and backing singers was shown on the 12 May 1977 edition of Top of the Pops. The song was followed by another de Paul/Moran penned release, "Going to a Disco", in a similar vein, also released on the Mountain record label in 1977 as a 7 inch and 12 inch single but did not chart although it received a positive review from the British DJ James Hamilton. It is also mentioned alongside "Let Your Body Go Downtown" in the books The Virgin Encyclopedia of 70s Music and Complete UK Hit Singles 1952-2006. "Let Your Body Go Downtown" is still played on the radio, most recently on the Ana Matronic Disco Devotion radio show on BBC Radio 2. (en)
