YOUNG BLOOD, AFTERR KC AND THE BANDS FIRST HIT NO ONE KNEW WHAT HE LOOKED LIKE. IN NEW YORK WE WENT TO SEE THEM AND FOUND THIS FUNKY GUY WAS WHITE. SO COOL.
Oh, KC. The voice of disco, they had so many hits, and almost all of them in the same tempo and key. Songs exclusively for dancing, and they were perfect for it. Brings back so many memories - yes, the bell-bottoms, Saturday nights at the disco. People would dress to the nines to go dancing - many sequins and rhinestones and gold chains. The 70's had a vibe all its own, that's for sure.
Ha - when I was in HS, our "squad" had a routine to "get down tonight" - but b/c cheerleaders were a bit jealous (I think)... somebody's Mom complained to the principal that the song was "suggestive" - so they said we couldn't dance to it... we were, of course, freaked b/c it was ONE day before we were supposed to perform... but luckily for us, our very cool 20-something coaches said.. "it's okay.. just do the routine to another song.." .. so we ended up dancing to KC's "That's the Way I like it" - which, hilariously, is actually MORE "suggestive" than the original selection... lol
@@TheDivayenta Yeah, the adults in the seventies just could not "get" disco/funk music - I remember how outraged my stepfather was when "Play that Funky Music" came on the radio and we teens were groovin' to - he turned it off and yelled at us, and said "I know what they're REALLY saying..." and we were all, "No, Dad -- Funky is an actual WORD..." but he just wasn't havin' it... lol
@@GinMae haha! Some jerk commenter on another channel was screaming how stupid I was because I said Lucy In the Sky was about a drawing Julian brought home. She was listing all the “drug “ references in the song. I told her it sounded like she did a lot of drugs in the day!
I remember that trend of embroidered bell bottoms. I did some on a pair of jeans I had, though nowhere near as detailed as what KC is sporting in the video!
Everyone Thought KC was black when he came out they shocked the world lol He's what we call blue-eyed soul He and the sunshine band are legendary my dude they got certified bangers Get Down Tonight,Shake Your Booty,I Get Lifted,Boogie Shoes & Keep It Coming Love -Get Down Tonight is the legendary party Anthem 🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯
My schoolmates and I discovered that that whole batch of hits from them were based on the same tempo and key. So you can actually sing them all at the same time. We used to do that a capella and found the songs kind of dovetailed so it worked and wasn't just a noisy muddle. :D
Harry Wayne Casey (KC) was one of the most influential artists of the Disco Era along with CHIC, and The Bee Gee's. Casey also wrote many songs for other artists which became mega hits in their own right. You can't hear the word DISCO without thinking of KC and The Sunshine Band.
They used to call me the Rock/Disco boy. I had the best of both worlds. I played bass in a rock band and was part of a disco/dj . Does not get any better then that. Great time in my life.
You are listening to one of the greatest bands of the 70's. K C - SUNSHINE BAND, loving it. Danced many nights at clubs to this song and many other hits. Love it.
Here's another super fun disco classic you'll love - "Place That Funky Music, White Boy" by Wild Cherry. One of the best riffs ever, and a great energetic good time. :)
*TWON!* Other great KC & The Sunshine Band songs: *Keep It Comin' Love* and *Get Down Tonight* But you wanna turn up?! React to The Trammps' *Disco Inferno* !!! Be well and be great! Kenn 😎💪🏾✊🏽
I remember just getting exhausted listening/dancing to Kc and Sunshine when I was a teenager, love the funk, jive and the Fire! Peace thanx for the memories
Hell yeah Clubs in Kansas City were packed n so were dance floors.😁❤️great times everyone partying Together. ethnicities we're not a thing back then.we all had wonderful times👋👋👋👋
Today music is written to play to a certain group. The hip hop group. The heavy metal group. The classical group. The country group. In the 70's music was written to please anyone who liked good music. They weren't all worried about "genre" as much as music itself. Genre was recognized but it wasn't so monotonously defined as it is now. We have lost something very important about music from then to now and it sucks.
I grew up in Miami. My mother was a friend of KC’s and growing up he was everything in Miami! I was six when the song came out and I remember my mother hanging out with him for years
I love to see Black and White making incredible music together. It just warms my heart. I was 17 years old when this came out. Me and my friends loved KC but we thought he was Black. Back in the 70s you could go a long time without ever seeing what the band looked like.
This was just pure dance music back in the day, no deep thoughts just movin' and groovin'. Check out his greatest hits collection, it's just too much fun.
K.C. and the Sushine Band! Great dance group from the 70s. They had a lot of hits in the mid to late 70s. "Shake Your Booty", "That's The Way I Like It", and "Boogie Shoes" from the "Saturday Night Fever" Soundtrack were some of their best hits. You might want try Donna Summer's hits from the 70s as well. She was The Queen of Disco for good reason - she is as legend! Songs of hers to have a reaction to: Bad Girls; Hot Stuff; She Works Hard For The Money; On The Radio; MacArthur Park; Last Dance (for which she won an Oscar Award for Best Movie Song of the Year); and Love To Love You, Baby. Other fabulous groups from the 70s are the Bee Gees (try "You Should Be Dancing (an absolutely incredible song!)"; "Tragedy", and "Staying Alive". Other superstars from the 70s you should react to is Earth, Wind, and Fire (try "Shining Star"; "Boogie Wonderland"; "September"; and That's The Way of the World". Also try George Clinton's "Atomic Dog"; and Patty LaBelle & LaBelle's ultra legendary song, "Lady Marmalade"! Love your show! Your reactions are honest, entertaining, and great!
I was 4 years old when this song came out. My parents told me I liked to get down, 45 years later, I can still get down, but somebody will have to help get my older, fat, out of shape, ass up. 😂
Dude it hasn't been that many yrs back you could go to any bar , be it country , rock. Blues . This tune comes on and everybody and there brother would be on the floor by the end of it ....
One of the best things about 70’s music is the fact they used a lot of other instruments. If you like that type of music check out Tower of Power or early Chicago!

You were never sitting down when this song came on. They had several hits in the late 70's. Just fun, kicking grooves.
no matter where you were!
Line dancing in platform shoes.
Glad I grew up in the 70's when blacks and whites made great music together!
The lead singer is Harry Casey. The band was formed in Florida, the Sunshine State, hence KC and the Sunshine Band.

@@TheDivayenta lol, Karen! good answer!
Flared pants, platform shoes, Afro hair, bright colours. I lives it man.
The pants were called bellbottoms...lol.
I remember that trend of embroidered bell bottoms. I did some on a pair of jeans I had, though nowhere near as detailed as what KC is sporting in the video!
The bellbottoms phase was phased out by the tight jeans phase, featuring Jordache Jeans and Sergio Valente!....a bad time in American history!
@@flash218ily Brooke Shields, "Nothing comes between me and my Calvin Klein jeans". Oy.
@@Serai3 Thanks.....that was like a punch to the gut! 🥴
Lol..remember hip huggers?

Wow! This took me back to my disco days. This was a huge hit to do the "The Bump" to. Try "Get Down Tonight" and "That's the Way I Like It" .
Me too! Play all of the above!
I had to go make a whole new amazon prime playlist after this
Lol....I still do the bump today to certain songs!! 🤣😂🤣 And it's all K.C. & the band's fault! 🤦🏼♀️😎
Ah, The Bump!
Kool And the Gang- Get your back up off the wall song.
*We knew how to have FUN in this era😎👍*
My personal fave KC hit is Boogie Shoes.
My schoolmates and I discovered that that whole batch of hits from them were based on the same tempo and key. So you can actually sing them all at the same time. We used to do that a capella and found the songs kind of dovetailed so it worked and wasn't just a noisy muddle. :D
Loved Boogie 👠 Shoes. 🎶 I wanna put on my my my my my Boogie shoes and boogie with you 🎶
Yasss💜
Yessssss
These years had the best dance music. KC and the Sunshine Band had many hits.
*That's the Way of the World*
Earth Wind & Fire
Yes, or *"Reasons"* !
The 70’s...my era. Good times! Please dig into Earth, Wind & Fire. You won’t be disappointed. Start with September!
We all wore bell-bottoms in the ‘70s and embroidery on them was even better!!!! Disco rules.

Dancing our butts off at the disco! Yeah! Check out "Get Down Tonight"
I remember back in ‘76 hearing this band for the first time... total party band.
They used to call me the Rock/Disco boy. I had the best of both worlds. I played bass in a rock band and was part of a disco/dj .
Does not get any better then that. Great time in my life.
Try Santana-Black magic woman, you’ll love it!!!

Put this one on your phone. When you’re feeling down or just need a pickup, play it. Works every time. 🔥🔥🔥
The word “Boogie” should have been your first hint that it was the 70’s lol
The SUPER 70S AT ITA GAINN
KC was the man. Do Please Don't Go,Keep It Coming & Shake Your Booty by them & Gease by Frankie Vallie. Boogie music💜
I remember just getting exhausted listening/dancing to Kc and Sunshine when I was a teenager, love the funk, jive and the Fire! Peace thanx for the memories
You are adorable 😊. I’m an old lady and I grew up on this music! The best in the world was the late 70’s
When there was a band with horn section and moving to the music , we called it a "review". James Brown had his, Sam and Dave and many others did too.
He's a cute boogie man...love KC and the Sunshine Band. You have to check out their other songs. Get Down Tonight, Shake Your Booty, and others.
This is disco honey. We looked forward to Friday and Saturday nights just so we could put on our hottest K-Mart dresses and dance all night.
Kmart dresses and red light specials amen girl
Hell yeah
Clubs in Kansas City were packed n so were dance floors.😁❤️great times everyone partying Together. ethnicities we're not a thing back then.we all had wonderful times👋👋👋👋
Or tightest jeans😁
We didn't care about anybody's color. We just wanted to dance to great music!
The disco era was soooooooo much fun; awesome music, bell bottom pants, disco balls. Lit up dance floors; it was amazing to be a part of
We dolled up every night to go disco dancing. We just danced without a specific partner. Who could sit this out...no one
Really fun song. I was 16 when this came out, good times for sure. I know I'll always enjoy your reactions Twon and this was spot on.
This band was so put together, they were insane!
One of the great 70's horn lines.
White man with all black band. Every body had fun in the 1970's.
Best dance band from the 70's, I was a teenager and lovin' them. Harry Casey is his name and he is brilliant!
If I could go back to my childhood and see one band, it would be K.C. and the Sunshine Band. Period.
In June of 1976 I turned 10 yrs old.
Ah,the 70's man,disco music was awesome to me. I still love it to this day. 🥰😁👍🥁🎵🎤🎸🎙🎺💃🕺
Bohemian Rhapsody I am not going to leave you alone until I see your reaction of Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen

So awesome i grew up with it and love seeing others appreciate it! They made a lot of good music!
Their horn section was second to none other than the Ohio Players.
Both were outrageously good.
that is a bad ass horn section !
Even all the disco haters in the '70's couldn't hate on KC because he was too cool!....he combined disco with funk and made disco come to life!
**************NOW THAT IS WHAT I CALL ENTERTAINMENT**************
The music was so great in the 70’s 😎
I was a teen in the 70's and this was the JAM in my day and know what its still the jam today!
Boogie Shoes by KC is good too!
I say it ALL THE TIME, but I grew up with the best, most diverse music.
Boogie Shoes next. One of they’re best songs. ☺️👍🏻 ❤️ I was 17 in 1970. I’m lovin the 70’s stuff. And yes, I wore those pants, bell bottoms ! Lol 😂
Omgoodness I skated my ass off to that for years in my youth lol. The glory days lol. Love watching the young ones discover the great songs
I fell in love with KC when I was 6 and I first heard them back in the 70's. Love that time of life.
WHOA!!! The horns are killing it!!!!!
70s had some of the best music! I am so grateful I grew up listening to it and still do.
Omg we rocked this tearing up the floor! See you can't sit still can ya? That's what it was All about!
I grew up in Miami. My mother was a friend of KC’s and growing up he was everything in Miami! I was six when the song came out and I remember my mother hanging out with him for years
Shook my booty to all his music in my youth 65 and still shaking my booty to kc love them !
I used to danced to this. You can’t imagine the greatness of that.
I love to see Black and White making incredible music together. It just warms my heart. I was 17 years old when this came out. Me and my friends loved KC but we thought he was Black. Back in the 70s you could go a long time without ever seeing what the band looked like.
Twon. You enjoyed this so much. PLEASE DO ...BOOGIE SHOES. BY THEM. ‼️‼️ 70’s is my thing. 😝
Back in the day we called the pants bell bottoms which I had many of!
Harry Wayne Casey also wrote Rock your Baby for George McCrea which became a world wide hit
So glad to see you enjoy that so much! I love KC, even just named my cat after this group!
Those moves at 5:30...watched it a million times😍😍😍!!!! LOVE IIIIIIITTTTTT.
This was just pure dance music back in the day, no deep thoughts just movin' and groovin'. Check out his greatest hits collection, it's just too much fun.
Was 10yrs old when this came out and still love it!!!
When KC and the Sunshine Band hit the scene, it was the best thing since rock and roll. Their sound was phenomenal! So danceable! I loved it.
Lol I knew you would like it! In this song Boogie man = The DJ!

I still have some of their original records. Wow...brings back memories of my teenage years!
Every song KC sang, he sang with a smile on his face. Smiley-est performer ever! :-)
Yep, I was dancing to the music wearing my bell-bottom Jeans at a friend's party in 1976!!
Graduated from high school in 1980. KC and the Sunshine Band performed in front of the Cinderella’s Castle on Grad-Night.
Get down tonight, thats the way i like it
That horn section is FUNKY!!!!! ❤
Good grooving, jamming and dancing music back in the days. Everyone just having clean fun.
Live bands back than was...🔥🔥🔥
Great reaction on a slamming jam. A strong song! When the club closed we all left smiling.
I love KC . It is really a great song!!!
I was 4 years old when this song came out. My parents told me I liked to get down, 45 years later, I can still get down, but somebody will have to help get my older, fat, out of shape, ass up. 😂
Dude it hasn't been that many yrs back you could go to any bar , be it country , rock. Blues . This tune comes on and everybody and there brother would be on the floor by the end of it ....
Funk meter is about to implode!
Props to the Sunshine Band that's for sure
Your reaction is the same one I had in 1976 when it hit the radio.. Still rocking with KC today
LOVE THIS BAND !!! 👍
Can you stand all this greatness? LOL! Hey yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
More KC please👍
I was 16 when this song came out & LOVED it!!! Still do ofcourse ❤
This is my era. That band was SICK!!!
One of the best things about 70’s music is the fact they used a lot of other instruments. If you like that type of music check out Tower of Power or early Chicago!
Love seeing that it still makes people want to dance! Just fun, good time, roller skating, dance music.
Great reaction. Man that track slamming! Them horns!
Listened to this back in high school 80's
