    A Taste of Honey were two savage queens! They played many instruments! Check out their hit song, Sukiyaki! There were other female guitar players in the disco era like Teena Marie and Patrice Rushen! ❤️❤️

    The baseline to this song is just so effin good. They were performing for army veterans and those who were still serving, and the men weren't paying attention. So they said "if you think you're too good to boogie, I got news for you." The one that plays the bass made that line up in the middle of the studio.

    These ladies were so FLY! It was the first time I had seen a duo like this, outside of HEART, of course. SOLID GOLD was co-hosted by Andy Gibb and Marilyn McCoo. Dionne Warwick also co-hosted for a while.

    We use to do a dance called the” Freak” to this song at the Discos in the late 70’s. It was a definite crowd pleaser.

  • @mikecaetano
    @mikecaetano 2 года назад +63

    "Boogie Oogie Oogie" was a number one hit for A Taste of Honey back in 1978. I might even have the record boxed up in storage, but it's been so long I'm not sure. A Taste of Honey was more or less a one hit wonder, although they did enjoy some minor success later on with covers of "Sukiyaki" and "I'll Try Something New". Solid Gold was a pop music television show that ran from 1980 to 1988. It's signature difference from the other popular music shows of the time was The Solid Gold Dancers, some of whom can be seen in this clip, which originally aired in 1981.

    • @you2449
      @you2449 2 года назад +2

      Yeah, Solid Gold was one-of-a-kind. A different flavor from the others. As a kid, I can't believe I missed the 2 times they had Prince on (in 82 & 83). Wow.

    I remember my Mom dancing around the living room with us boys to this song. She was a young Mom, she was only 22 by the time all three of us were born, so she was only probably 24 when this song came out. She would play this record, and teach us how to dance!!! My Mom is still like that, so much fun!! Thanks!

    These were likely the only women during the disco era and in the disco genre to actually play a musical instrument, all other women were either lead or background singers, I've known of this song for years but only learned in the past few that they're playing the bass and guitar..

  • @russelbarnes7235

    This was a killer song when it dropped. Try Sukiyaki, one of the most beautiful melodies you'll ever enjoy. Sukiyaki has been covered at least 4-5 times, and has its origins in the early 60s. Beautiful rendition that Taste of Honey released in 1980. Great reaction guys, I enjoyed it. Peace

The first ones I remember was the Ed Sullivan show you know then you had a late night show Carson they would all have live performers on but these other shows they would have their individual dancers I forget all the names of the shows but it was awesome you guys need to go down all that you would’ve loved to of been alive during that time
