    You guys just don't know. Living in the 70s was amazing. The radio and music was on everywhere. At home and in the car. There were no cell phones, no internet, no video games, no cable TV and we were happy as hell.

      @Uriahjw 2 года назад +37

      I was a youngster in the 70's and I can relate to your comments. Though we had "Pong" for our video game. We were always listening to music. Cassettes, reel to reel, 8-track or just the radio we always had some device on and enjoying the day. Summer was unbelievable in those days.

      Facts Jeff! I wonder what the world would be like if all of those things still didn't exist. Probably happy as hell, because we wouldn't know any better! I thought recording the top 10 count down by placing the microphone on my cassette recorder next to my clock radio speaker, was genius 😅.

    Kool & the Gang is an American R&B/funk band formed in 1964. They had their biggest hits in the 70's-80's such as "Jungle Boogie", "Hollywood Swinging", "Spirit Of The Boogie", "Ladies' Night", "Celebration", "Joanna", "Misled", "Cherish" etc."

    Back in 2011, Kool And The Gang opened (50 dates) for Van Halen's 'A Different Kind Of Truth' Tour. It was the ultimate 'hard rock' party band paired up with the ultimate 'pop/funk' party band. 50% of the audience for both of the bands were female.

    Asia you are so right about the instruments. As an 8 year old in elementary school I went to use the bathroom during class and I was blown away by what I heard.... music from the music class. I stood at the door of the music class and I was mesmerized by the amazing sounds coming fro the students. Mr. Portnoy asked me if I were interested and my appreciation of all music was born. I went on to play trumpet, trombone and sax that Mr. Portnoy taught me. He taught me to read and write music and I will forever be grateful to Mr. Portnoy as that was 55 years ago. Play an instrument and you will learn to appreciate music on a different level.

    Saw these guys about 8 years ago. One of those groups you forget about but when they play you recognize every song. Great positive energy. Before the concert they had spent whole day with kids from Boy and Girl's club of America,, and the kids were all right there next to stage. When they sang Lady's Night it was a serenade to these girls and everyone went crazy. Very positive experience.

Didn't know that that would be the last time that I could see a couple of their band members, may they rest in peace!

    Perfect skating tempo & beat, & all so electric slide line dance. When lead singer JT Taylor joined the group, like 1980, it really gave a lift to the band & that played out in the many hits they had in the ‘80’s. 👍🏾

    A few years ago I and my female friend attended a Kool and the Gang concert. Visualize this scene. North Central Indiana, Honeywell Center in Wabash, IN. The venue had 1,500 seats and the audience was older predominantly Caucasian people. The group had replacements due to their age, but the band sounded just like the original group. We stood the whole concert and acted like kids again. I was so amazed at the hits I had forgotten about. Wonderful performance!
