I didn’t know that KC wrote this great song for George McCrae.
Yesssss❤
He's an authentic genius.
It is a shame that the legendary 70's cannot be repeated, thank God we have youtube and the great memories made during the greatest era in modern music!!
That's right dude!!!you think in the same direction as me!!!
Yep thnx to direction you tube for show us the good old times and thnx to you for The like thank you sir!!!
You aren't kidding. Glad I grew up in the 70s.
Essa foi um show !! Adoro v esse vídeo...tocava muito
This is too much fun. KC and the Sunshine Band played at my high school grad night. Who that all these [ahem] years later I'd be watching them on my computer? Get down tonight!
STILL watching KC in 2024 - he's 73 years old now, and STILL making music!!!
Too cool
This performance is a masterpiece. I used to think KCSB did simple, fun disco music, but this taught me how wrong I was.
They were
Harry was only 23 here!! He's now 73 and still making music!!!
I've seen a video of him doing this one! He's still got it
@@emilywickler8871: Yes, he can still move around on-stage pretty good for an 'old guy'!! 😉 To stand up for 2 HOURS (or close to it!) is amazing - he must have great knees!! 😀
Look at my Daddy playing that SAX rip daddy
@@zephaniahdixon1290: Awww, my sincere condolences on the loss of your dear Dad. You must be SO proud of him!!! We all LOVED his music!!!
I was lucky to see these guys live in the mid 70's at a very young age ( snuck in ). Easily one of the best live bands I have ever seen. Tight as hell, funky, entertaining, talented, and wahtever else i can think of. Musicians loved this band in th same way they liked tower of power.
Being someone who was born in 1980, the clothes look to be from Mars but the music is from Heaven!
The clothes are actually from the Planet Claire
Even in the 80's watch Blondies video Atomic....she was rockin what looked like a trash bag. I think it actually was!😅
This is the baddest band ever.
The man knows no racial barriers. This guy, Harry Wayne Casey, was BORN to funk. And he wakes up each morning READY to funk. I'm fairly sure he never questioned or even played the race card when it came down to crafting these now timeless funk classics. Although I do have to say that next to Boz Scaggs, Daryl Hall, Robert Palmer and the baddest of them all, Rod Temperton, Harry Wayne Casey is hands down the most kick ass, whiteboy funkster in the planet!
yeah, you are right man, and now we can see how good and positive things we could do breaking race barriers
The 1970s were so damn cool. From 1970 - 1979. The music, the clothes, the cars, etc. look at KC & his band. Those moves. I have this concert on DVD. If only the quality & camera angles were better. I wish there were more.
Yeah so is Anthony kiedis from the Red Hot Chili peppers not too shabby
@@abelmontalvo4052man that band is white boy funk posturing in the worst way
Fantastic assemblage of musicians presaging the monster era of KC. He was unstoppable!
This brings me momentary peace in an otherwise insane world.
It's so cool to see a band with brass, wish we had more like this today.
The True Loves?
Chicago..
What a great tune... Its wicked to see the original songwriter (KC) doing a brill version with the Sunshine Band!
these is one of the songs that inspired the iconic swedish quartet ABBA to recording their biggest worldwide hit, the iconic "Dancing Queen" in 1976
I think Harry wrote that song for them, didn't he?
Disco4ever LOVES this song!
KC knows how to make you dance
Best instrumental version of this song. Genius
OH YES!!! I AM THERE WITH YOU 💯 %
How many are there?.....😂
God Bless KC. He has brought such joy through music to so many lives.
I see there are 23 brainless wonders who think otherwise.
The trombone player totally kills it! I've been trying to figure out what happened to him. Too bad he's not with KC now!
Play that funky music!!!
I love how they're all getting down while they play
my goodness i'm 21 and like this music like i danced on it 20 years ago. Do i have a problem..?
Fantastic Disco Band is K.C. Always Smiling they do not nowadays! old music makes me smile today`s music makes me say "Oh God, not more rubbish!"
dammit these were the good ole days not the crap that you hear now
I had no idea they wrote that song for him. Badass sing
Thanks chuckwagon,you're absolutely right. Fermin Goytisolo is the only remaining original. I was the last original vocalist to leave in 1999. The band continues to tour worldwide.
It's so much fun to see the musicians enjoying themselves!!! What a blast from the past.............
Unbelievable joy.
One of The greatest band of 70's
Why were the 70s cool? Because back then an artist could sing and dance...and PLAY THEIR MUSIC. Now days they just sing and dance while session musicians play all their music.
Harry said he used session musicians - that's why the band was sometimes completely different.
Please invent the time machine so we can all go back to those years when "having fun" had a true meaning !
I'll say it again. seeing these dudes in 74/75 when I was snuck into a venue by friend, completely rocked my world. A rock solid rhythm section, horns to die for, and my first look at women in tight dresses and platforms .. what more could you ask for? the only band that has come close since was tower of power, but nothing will ever beat KC and the boys and that magical groove.
This oldies will never fade away
Give a big 'thumbs up' if you miss the greatest era in music history..the legendary 70's !!!
Whoever stated death before disco must realize that disco should primarily be played by the sweetest black musicians. KC has the best musicians backing him up. For that reason alone, KC is the only white man that belongs anywhere near disco.
Everyone should have this much fun at work. Too cool.
Love KC and the Sunshine Band!!!Heaven Disco days... 💕💌💋👅
Fantastic!!!! even do I am not from USA I really love and appreciate this kind of music.......Besides he looks so happy and a nice human being Just like the L A POLICE or the mexican police too.
I will give KC props for writing the song, but George McCrae OWNS this. Amazing song.
My uncle, Clay Cropper produced this track at TK records in miami, along with other artists such as bobby caldwell, who my uncle wrote the opening line in "what you wont do for love" he also produced and played guitar and B3 with betty wright.
A man who for some reason turned his back on the industry?
This video certainly brings back disco era memories.
Harry Wayne Casey just radiates joy and sexy all at the same time. Truly one of the cutest, talented guys to ever grace earth with his presence.
Great Bassline!! Richard Finch
Back when it use to 'snow' in Miami!
wow i didnt know kc wrote that for george but listening to the music i can see it, love it
I see my brothers up there funkin, however, lets not forget the hardest funkster up there, KC, and lets not forget his bass player, DAMN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LIVE MUSIC, we miss you 70"s music
KC a.k.a. Casey Harry...is the undisputed king of 'Boogie - Funk' rock....it really gets ya a movin' !!!!
I went with them to their American Bandstand performance.I still have pictures from the trip
The lovely days of my early childhood, boy do I miss them!
KC & the Sunshine Band rocked the world with their unique disco funk and dancealicious music!!
KC wrote it, George Mcrae sung it. And from that you got MFN GOLD!
Sang it
Love the song, never knew KC wrote it for George McRae
This was 40 years ago? Unreal...still cool!
50
48 years ago now

you cant fail to dislike this....so much energy and enjoyment
One of the greatest funk bands, hell, one of the greatest bands, EVER!!
The stage is on F I R E ! Good Music never will die!
Look at the chap on trumpet on the left side... sure enjoyes every sleep he takes :-)
I am hardly a person for tradition, but I maintain that we have got to get back with allowing a man to wear a cape.
Not everyone is a fan of Dracula
IS THAT YOU, BATMAN??
@@WhosYerHayseed Yes but don't tell the Joker. Batman is committed to the funk.
@@Praetor_Fenix420 LMAO, well played!
Now this is dance music at its greatest! KC has always been an inspiration.
This is the funkiest tune ever.
This era was the thing!!....Great horn sounding groups back then with a great swing!!!
Harry Wayne "K.C." Casey... funkiest white boy alive
Heather Ferreira .... Playing that Funky Music.....THE SUNSHINE BAND MADE FUNK FUNKY!
Heather Ferreira So true H....
Amen! I agree :-) I am white myself and I can get pretty funky, but nothing like K.C. :-D
..takes his music seriously cooollll
It makes me ROCK ALL NIGHT LONG
besides this incredibly talented line up, and the unbelievable groove to this tune, the bets thing about a KC show was the chicks. snuck into a show in the70's when i was 14 - 15 cause my cousin was a doorman, and saw the most beautiful, long legged, platform wearing, bust exposing, silk wearing women of my life! One babe looked at me like I was an ice cream cone, and i've never forgotten her, this band, or that moment. so cool.
I remember going to nightclubs dancing all nighters to this stuff. Sweating like anything and nobody gave a shittt. drunk until you could not walk and all the cops did was help you make your wobbly way to the taxi rank. Times have changed. Hope we can get the good times back for our kids.
KC is a genius - his band love him and he loves his band - sound those funky horns - v cool
love the cape!
Fabulous !!!,.ktf.
i kove this! my all-time favorite you tube video
I'm addicted to this video, thanks again for posting a classic DISCO WONDERFUL FANTASTIC KC SONG!!!! Long live disco!!
Used to judge these guys too harshly, back in the 70's...now I really love this vibe!!! Amazin what a few years can do!!!!....Johnny red
This sure stirs up some really great memories! KC & the band were way ahead of their time with music.
One of the first videos I've watched in youtube. A long time ago...
I was born just a bit to late to enjoy this stuff in nightclubs. Just missed out on studio 54 too. Love this song. My mom used to listen to this on her 8 track. :)
Those horns are like dynamite, I would say this is a jazz band really
I think they're the best horn section ever: better than Chicago, Earth Wind and Fire, Kool and the Gang, anyone...
the 70's looked like the rocked i wish i was alive in those moments 70's rocked i like that decade better than any other
I remember a young black teenager - me - who had a serious jones for Harry Casey back in the day...thanks for the memories!
When you listen to the lyrics, Rock Your Baby will make sense. Jesus...you don't have a heart beat if this doesn't make you dance!
I Love this version, too
i love kc and the sunshine band. i've been a fan sense i was 14 and that was in the 80's. i had a crush on kc.....i thought he was so cute even when he gained weight he was so cute. i wish someone would bring back disco because disco rules and who ever said it sucks hated it. BRING BACK DISCO, BRING BACK DISCO!
He was very good-looking. Shame he let himself go a bit. He wrote some real classics back in the day.
That’s a great performance. Never knew KC and The Sunshine Band members were the backing band that performed this. Also never knew KC and Richard Finch wrote it. 👏👏
I saw KC and the Sunshine Band in Burlington Iowa at Steamboat Days in 1999. They are still so great to see in person! I wish that I could have told them how much I appreciate them! They were rockin. My favorite music with horns. I want to see you again!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow..didn't know till now that your awesome band sang this and wrote it for George McCrae..awesome.. :)
KC and the band even play on the George McCrea's version.
one of the best bands ever! Got to see these guys live in 2001 and still put on one hell of a show.
Such awesome and upbeat music for that era!!I'm 46 and love it!!!
Funky Jazz
Hey CRJADED----YOU ROCK, MAN! He is the absolute baddass white boy! This guy has soul all through his veins. And not only did he perform these kick ass songs, he effin' wrote them!!!
In my book, the baddest white boys in R&B/Soul music are 1) Harry Wayne Casey, 2) Rod Temperton (of Heatwave and writer of Michael Jackson's best songs, and 3) Daryl Hall.
"Cake" is a good modern band with brass.
yeah they really were the good old days.Loved em.xx
real talent cannot be denied, only boogied to !!!
It does bring tears its so good! Didn't we have some fun!!!
disco4ever holds this song dear to his discoheart, a real gem.............
Para mim uma melhores bandas de todos os tempos......🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
@label1877
Yeah! It was so cool when a brass section swung with the tempo!
good stuff!
actually what I really dig are those crazy hats and the awesome dance moves and also just the sheer enjoyment vibing off everyone on stage .... LOVE
