Pleasure blended soul, funk and jazz with a tough street edge and became a cult group on the underground black music scene of the late 70's.

Bruce Edward Carter, as a teenager, formed a Portland R & B band called the Franchise with friends Marlon McClain on guitar and Nathaniel Phillips on bass.

In 1972, the band merged with a rival band, the Soul Masters, to form Pleasure.

Working closely with producer Wayne Henderson in Los Angeles, they signed to Fantasy Records for 'Dust Yourself Off' (1975), including 'Midnight At The Oasis', 'Accept No Substitutes' (1976), including 'Ghettos Of The Mind', 'Joyous' (1977), including 'Sassafras Girl', and 'Get To The Feeling' (1978), including 'Ladies Night Out', before themselves producing, 'Future Now' (1979), including 'Glide', and the album 'Special Things' in 1980.

They later recorded an album called 'Give It Up' for RCA in 1981. In 1976, they recorded with label mates Side Effect on their version of 'Always There'.
The band then went their seperate ways with Marlon McClain releasing a solo project entitled 'Changes'.

Bruce Carter passed away in 2006.

The song in particular stood out amongst other releases of 2003 for having a dubious 1980s sound to it, which extended to its video. A new album was released in 2007, called Pleasure 2, featuring vocals by Brett Anderson from Suede.
