Here in Brazil, the radio stations played a dub version in 1981 that I never found on vinyl. It ended with the vocoder voice acapella ... huummmmmm funky bebop. I've been looking for this version for decades and never found it
I still remember my good friend, "homey," who had tragically died some years after I had gotten discharged from the military...And I had only found out after my sister had contacted me and told me of the circumstances, etc., regarding that...Still, he had always been a club DJ with all of the then latest music...and would have, most likely, made it as an accomplished DJ, turntable wizard, etc.... In fact, he gave me a 12" copy of this single way back before anyone, at least on the West Coast, had even heard, or had been privy to, this!!!!
I want to go back in time....and into the steamy hot dancings . Disco Dancing on the dancefloor and on the dance stage. Sweating like a fool. Drinking beer and not even becoming drunken.
Know if you can get an endless supply of plutonium you could make a time machine with that car called the Delorean. (Back to the Future) That would be great
Men early 80's roller skate dance music .... Remember those kind of songs ,Vicky D. Fat l' harry's band , Dynasty etc.... Were on heavy rotation at La Defense Mall roller skate rings in Paris every week ends around 1981-83.....

cette vidéo a été tournée en 1981 au Mirano Continental à Bruxelles,à l'époque Vin zee vivait en Belgique,le groupe de danseurs en roller skate l'accompagnant appartenait au groupe Funky Skate de Namur,dont je faisais partie,,,,que de souvenirs!!!!
Such an original song. Heavy sound and crazy video, indeed. I could witness for the funky tidal wave 1980 intensity That's what music should always be 😮
School them young boys bout music... sick fuNky beats. You know this is super fly music even when your sitting and looking at this primal old school video your azz just wants to shake. LOL.
In Holland this was pure `in-crowd` DISCO....far from mainstream , and since I was the DISCO freak in the family it was known to me , still lóve this one!!!...who said DISCO died huh???
This is an interesting video. It's like a lost Kano song since Stefano Pulga wrote this one. Edit: I was just looking on Billboard, and the song apparently charted at #44 on R&B in late 1981.
Quando Jimmy Ross lançou, first true love affair, parecia um funk insuperável, tal o ritmo e harmonia da canção! Mas então, veio Veen Zee, com funk be bop! E agora? Eu tenho os dois, mix importados!
I'm canadian (Quebec province) and I have the 45 vinyl record of it on the label MATRA! I like that type of disco music particularily that tune "Funky BeBop" by Vin-Zee!... Great find! Thanks to share these gems to us!
It's almost the same bassline as Chic's "Good Times" . Disco emerged from funk,soul and some other musicstyles. My guess the videoclip was made for "Hit Ring"(Belgium) at the "Rio Club"in Sint-Katelijne, Waver.
Oh now you know I'm liking this Trent ...feet are moving to da beat right now....come on and jump on the dance floor with me and break it down,,,,How lowwww can ya gooooo! hahahaha

Fuck yeah Bro keep the funk alive. Vin Zee is a nice man who takes time for others.
Ahh yeah! The height of Disco's hey-day. It would llive another two years and then die. I miss those days so much.
Still got my 12" inch 45 from back in the day , still listnings in 2020

I liked this song. I just hear it now on Ativa Radio!

Sorry its not Disco its funky music.... Early 80's sound up to mid 80's golden age of Funk Soul.....
It's almost the same bassline as Chic's "Good Times" . Disco emerged from funk,soul and some other musicstyles. My guess the videoclip was made for "Hit Ring"(Belgium) at the "Rio Club"in Sint-Katelijne, Waver.
+Richard Binkhuysen yep , could be !!! That song is great !!! Yep indeed it has the Nile Rodgers and Zapp influence 😬
Yep,received conformation of the owner Mr.M.Jacobs it was recorded in the Rio Club Sint-Katelijne-Waver, Belgium .
This is Club Mirano in Brussels!
