Frayed , a lot of “boomers” hated Disco . They missed the “boat” . This 72 year old, loved it . Dancing the nights away . Great physical fitness program to boot .
Love them! My brother is the percussionist since 1975! He is the one with the tambourine! I worked with them at KC's recording studio for years!!! The best years of my life!!!
can we all take a minute to appreciate just how impossibly difficult it is to play those horns and dance at the same time? I know this was a studio dub, but they did that shit live on stage too. That's major talent.
Those guys(brass) were absolutely nothing shy of awesome. I really wish I could’ve appreciated this song more when it came out but I was only 11 yrs old. But the trumpet da da da’s … just too good . Nothing can top that today ! I would give anything to go back .
Can we also take a moment to appreciate they were doing it in heels too? Those shoes they are wearing are not light like a pair of sneakers. Those men were might amazing. ❤🔥
KC had so many great dance songs. A lot of you think your parents & grandparents were out of touch & squares, this is what we danced to all night & we had FUN!
KC & the Sunshine Band and Earth, Wind and Fire were two of my favorite groups back in the 1970's. Both have fantastic horn sections and their music are always about the happiness and fun aspects of life. Their music is always uplifting and just makes you feel good and they come from a time when people played real instruments without the aid of vocoders or other electronic foolery. Today's music is largely made using computers where the artistry is lost in the process.
Check out Play That Funky Music! It was written after someone saw him practicing and said, "Play that funky music, white boy!" He wrote the song in less than an hour.
Back in the day when they actually had musicians in popular musical groups. How many new groups today have musicians that can play brass instruments? None that I can think of, or very few at least.
From 1975 to 1981 we had some of the best dancing music ever produced.. I was 15 when this song hit the air waves , it was a time to just let your hair down and have a good time and dance the night away..
Many say he was the start of disco. You cant go far wrong with any of his songs, but you may really like "Thats the way i like it", or for something slightly different maybe " Please dont go".
@@justafreethinker I think you'll find that song was released in 1975, where as KC was co writer of "Rock your baby" sung by George McCrae released in 1974 & that song is considered by most to be the first disco song.
Hell yeah!! Give me some bell bottoms and an A.M. radio and send me back to the 70s!! If you can not remember the 70s you missed all the good stuff. Who loves you baby!!!
@@HammerAl66 1975 indeed, thank you for the correction. Like the origins of Rock n Roll itself, we might never know when the beginning truly was but if "Rock Your Baby" is considered as such, who am I to argue. I just know that according to many music historians, "The Hustle" is considered the birth song of Disco... but again, we will never actually know :)
@@HammerAl66 Wow. Did not know he co wrote "Rock your baby" of George McCrae. That was one smooth as mother trucker. Old George just gliding up on your ass. KC has the groove 👏.
I was 9 years old when this song came out and my baby brother was just born... I remember Mom playing this on her stereo dancing around the living room
KC and the sunshine band. I was living in L.A.back then went to 2 of his concerts . Glitter platform shoes ,bell bottom pants ,long hair ,and plenty grass. Hot band . Good memories.
I was in the sixth grade in 1976 and I remember when this jam came out. My Mom & Dad bought that album and we still have it. I love K.C & the Sunshine Band, still listening to this day. The 70's was definitely a great decade! Bell bottoms, afros, fly away collars were the style then. Love your reaction to this timeless classic! Makes me happy that you like the music from that era. You are the BEST!
My brother Fermin Goytisolo is the percussionist since 1975, he is the one playing the tambourine on this video! I also worked at the recording studio for years!
Keeping it real, when we were kids listening to this, we thought KC was a black dude. When we found out he was white it was crazy. 😂😂😂😂 But we didn't care!!! Good music is GOOD music...🤗❤
I miss the 70's like you can't imagine! The music, the trends, the fun, the freedom feeling, the movements, the clothes, the protests, the dancing, the disco's, & most of all, we all just liked each other, without question 💞Great reaction 💞
My Favorite KC and the Sunshine Band Song........ I just saw these fantastic Musicians in 2018 in Denver Colorado USA 🎼🎼🎼 They were fun and And Entertained the Entire Crowd.....
You have to dance.The abs show that everybody was working out regularly.The energy is contageous.Harry Wayne Casey"KC so cute.Those dimples.Everything.
The 70s were indeed a vibe, some brilliant music. But as someone who is near 60, I am also blown away by some of the music of today. Every era has some genius musicians and singers, and now we're much more open to music from different countries and cultures & languages it feels. Did luv a bit of KC back in the day, can't deny that.....but yes the band and back up singers were awesome!
How can you be so young and know how disco was. We were all one people, please let everyone be like we were back then, we all were" ONE" No black and white or any other color. I loved that time as a white man, absolutely magical
It was around 1976 - I was 14 or 15 and they were at a local record store to autograph their album. I stood in line with my girlfriends and when I got to the front and asked him to sign my album, he said "only if I get a kiss"... I'm sure I turned several shades of red but I got a kiss and still have my signed album. Thanks for the memory!
Growing up in the 70's, I always say there was good disco and bad disco...this is one of the good ones! If you want a "creepier" version...Rob Zombie did an awesome cover.
I can honestly say, that this was a band whose new singles you looked forward to, no matter who your favourite group was. As you noticed, they were having a good time producing good fun music for everyone & it showed. I`ve never heard a bad word about them from anyone.
I was 14 when this song came out. You brought back memories of me and my friends walking around with a transistor radio and grooving to this. Thank you! How hard it must have been to play the trumpet while dancing to the beat. Excellent!
Because this was during Junior High School years and I was a boy and my younger sister was a girl, I was into harder Rock and she moved through a disco phase although I would say she ended up at Hard Rock anyway. But it was just a thing at the time Rock versus disco but man, there was always something about KC and the Sunshine band, and we had them on an 8-track cassette and could play it on the family stereo system from kmart. They always got to me..
If you look at the official video of 'Disco Inferno' by The Trammps.....you can see him playing keyboards in the background. I went to see them about 3 years ago at The Grand Sierra Casino in Reno. BUT.....they were in the big showroom, and even though the place was packed.....everyone was either pinned in at their tables or confined to their seats. There was very little room to get up & groove.
The most amazing male voice from Disco was Barry Gibb of the BeeGees. Start with the one where he shows off an amazing falsetto, called Too Much Heaven. Official Video live in studio is best for this song.
You have to review Earth, Wind, and Fire,s Fantasy. I saw them live twice. The horn section is amazing. The costumes, amazing too. The visuals, the music, omg.
I played sax some as a kid, and the amazing part to me is the guys dancing with the horns for the breath control it would take to not only play, but keep moving. I would faint in a minute flat, my vision going dark. That's why I have a theory when everything stops and the camera zooms on the drummer so he can do his thing, everyone else is just taking a deep breath.

So glad I was a teenager in the '70s
This s*** can never be duplicated
You got that right the 70s KICKED ASS ,,
Could any other decade been as amazing as being a teenager thru the 70s plus the best music any decade produced
@@markhopkins222 Nope 8 of the Top 25 biggest selling lps in the USA Are from the 1970s , A TRUE FACT
“Come on horns” Haha hell yeah!
Great song, great vid!
Me too
Ahhh..music in the days before auto-tune😊 It's called talent boys and girls!!
Ok boomer
Frayed , a lot of “boomers” hated Disco . They missed the “boat” . This 72 year old, loved it . Dancing the nights away . Great physical fitness program to boot .
KC AND THE SUNSHINE BAND WAS DEFINITELY ONE OF THE BEST BANDS FROM THE DISCO ERA...
Saw them in 78 with Gladys Knight and the Pips!
@@michaelasay6140 How was the concert. Those are two iconic bands.
Bring it back right NOW!
True that!
We had such good dancing music and we had so many talented artist!!
The 70's was the finest decade for Rock-n-Roll and R&B, hands down.
YES IN DEED
I agree with you.
PREACH! BROTHER#
Love them! My brother is the percussionist since 1975! He is the one with the tambourine! I worked with them at KC's recording studio for years!!! The best years of my life!!!
WOW, That is so cool.
I'd love to just shake your hand .
KC and the sunshine band was best roller skating music evah!
Ah yes. I remember going to Skate World with all my friends grooving away. 🛼
These were real musicians playing real instruments. KC rules.😁😁😁
Agreed! 👍 not like the fluff of today.
can we all take a minute to appreciate just how impossibly difficult it is to play those horns and dance at the same time? I know this was a studio dub, but they did that shit live on stage too. That's major talent.
Yes I also praise the extreme skills that it takes to play well and dance at the same time
Those guys(brass) were absolutely nothing shy of awesome. I really wish I could’ve appreciated this song more when it came out but I was only 11 yrs old. But the trumpet da da da’s … just too good . Nothing can top that today !
I would give anything to go back .
Can we also take a moment to appreciate they were doing it in heels too? Those shoes they are wearing are not light like a pair of sneakers. Those men were might amazing. ❤🔥
I think anyone who's ever performed in a marching band will concur.
It was always a party on the dance floor when they played KC and the Sunshine Band back in the day!
Yes it certainly was 😁👏😍
KC was the coolest white boy in the 70's with the funk, the soul and the disco...
He's still performing to this day. He was just here in Vegas at the age of 70 years old, and still dancing like he was 30. Impressive.
Although he has gained some weight and lost a lot of hair.
I'm lucky enough to go see him in 3 days with my sister who wasn't even born until the 90s ... But she loves his music too!!! 😮😊😂
70’s…the best decade of music. 🎼
We had the absolute best music in the 70s and 80s, it was an awesome time to be alive!!❤❤❤❤❤
KC had so many great dance songs. A lot of you think your parents & grandparents were out of touch & squares, this is what we danced to all night & we had FUN!
The 70's were one of the better times to be young, free, and stylish. The music was second to none.
Oh girl u opened Pandora's box... this is my era!!
Back in the day real talented artist in action.
KC & the Sunshine Band and Earth, Wind and Fire were two of my favorite groups back in the 1970's. Both have fantastic horn sections and their music are always about the happiness and fun aspects of life. Their music is always uplifting and just makes you feel good and they come from a time when people played real instruments without the aid of vocoders or other electronic foolery. Today's music is largely made using computers where the artistry is lost in the process.
The disco years were the best. Friday and Saturday nights you got dressed to the 9's and danced all night.
"Shake Your Booty" is a good one from KC
I have to admit that I was a teenager with a little bit of a crush on KC back when they had all their big hits!
KC was WAAY ahead of his time..n had one of the largest bands in the world...i think he had up to like 30 members...insane
I graduated HS in '76 and started hitting the disco. Best time of my life!
OMG...the Disco Era!!! I'm 73 yrs old and dancing for old times. If I can still dance so can you! Get down girl!! Enjoy!!! 😊💃🕺❤
The 70's was the best decade for music.
KC and the Sunshine band did not disappoint every time they came on the radio yes radio everybody cut the rug up
Check out Play That Funky Music! It was written after someone saw him practicing and said, "Play that funky music, white boy!" He wrote the song in less than an hour.
Back in the day when they actually had musicians in popular musical groups. How many new groups today have musicians that can play brass instruments? None that I can think of, or very few at least.
Bruno Mars band has excellent brass musicians.
Nathaniel Rateliff’s band is pretty funky! And has a horn section,
From 1975 to 1981 we had some of the best dancing music ever produced..
I was 15 when this song hit the air waves , it was a time to just let your hair down and have a good time and dance the night away..
Many say he was the start of disco. You cant go far wrong with any of his songs, but you may really like "Thats the way i like it", or for something slightly different maybe " Please dont go".
Actually Disco officially started in 1972 with a song called "The Hustle" by Van McCoy.
@@justafreethinker I think you'll find that song was released in 1975, where as KC was co writer of "Rock your baby" sung by George McCrae released in 1974 & that song is considered by most to be the first disco song.

@@HammerAl66 Wow. Did not know he co wrote "Rock your baby" of George McCrae. That was one smooth as mother trucker. Old George just gliding up on your ass.
KC has the groove 👏.
KC and The Sunshine Band were what disco were all about he defined Disco 🙌 🔥🔥🔥
Those horn players probably worked up a real sweat when they performed this song.
I was 9 years old when this song came out and my baby brother was just born... I remember Mom playing this on her stereo dancing around the living room
The ENERGY and good vibes! KC's smile is infectious.
The funk era was the best!!!! KC and the Sunshine Band set the party's off back in the day
KC and the sunshine band.
I was living in L.A.back then went to 2 of his concerts .
Glitter platform shoes ,bell bottom pants ,long hair ,and plenty grass. Hot band .
Good memories.
I love watching today's generation listen to my generation's music.
Boogie was a term we used all the time in the 70’s often times it was used to say let’s leave
I was in the sixth grade in 1976 and I remember when this jam came out. My Mom & Dad bought that album and we still have it. I love K.C & the Sunshine Band, still listening to this day. The 70's was definitely a great decade! Bell bottoms, afros, fly away collars were the style then. Love your reaction to this timeless classic! Makes me happy that you like the music from that era.

Tambourine is one of the hardest things to record in a studio. This guy is incredible, never loses the semiquaver
My brother Fermin Goytisolo is the percussionist since 1975, he is the one playing the tambourine on this video! I also worked at the recording studio for years!
@@lsayih5 That is AWESOME!!!!!!
Legendary. Music was so good from back when...
when this came out the dance floor was packed as every song kc and the sunshine band released..and yes i still have the album..x
Keeping it real, when we were kids listening to this, we thought KC was a black dude. When we found out he was white it was crazy. 😂😂😂😂 But we didn't care!!! Good music is GOOD music...🤗❤

The ultimate feel-good party band!
This is the first group I ever saw in concert in the 70's, it was a magical moment I will never forget.
I LOVE THE WAY THIS GIRL THINKS...SHE HAS AN OPEN MIND AND ENJOYS THE VIBE
Girl, I grew up on him... He is now 70 years old and still singing ... I miss disco.
Whenever I see them perform, I feel like I am seeing a family.
KC & the Sunshine definitely one of the top bands in the disco years.
@RogueRxyce...Great reaction to a great song/performance. As you liked this song, you would 100% love Kool & The Gang singing Ladies Night.
I was almost 11 when this came out and trust me we danced to this great music.
Classic 70’s funk and disco. Love it ❤️❤️
I was in junior high when KC was putting out all those #1 hits, "I'm your boogie man" and "keep it comin' love" were my favorites.
Boogie is another word for dancing, getting down on the dance floor,sweet lady!!!
The background singers were there all along doing an amazing job! Sing it, Ladies!
Disco lives! Thanks RR.
Grew up listening to these songs still love them,love the horn section
Kc and the sunshine band now that takes me back to school discos.
KC had the best smile as well as a groove!
Done been here and done that back in the 70’s when I was a kid this thing turned on the turntables for many nights soaked it all up
I forgot just how good their music was! Still holds up after all these years!
The background singers were huge back then known as the Sunshine Girls.
My Favorite KC and the Sunshine Band Song........ I just saw these fantastic Musicians in 2018 in Denver Colorado USA 🎼🎼🎼 They were fun and And Entertained the Entire Crowd.....
Class of 71,...my girls mom liked to dance,my girl was 3..everyone would dance!
I love 70s music!!!!
You have to dance.The abs show that everybody was working out regularly.The energy is contageous.Harry Wayne Casey"KC so cute.Those dimples.Everything.
By the way his name is Harry not Henry

KC AND THE SUNSHINE BAND ARE TOTALLY AWESOME!!! HE IS FROM MY HOME TOWN. 305 MIA!!!
"He's blowing it. Givin' it his all." As an old horn player, you just made my day.
I am your BOOGIEMAN!!!
I was a kid in the 70s but I remember like it was yesterday this music was incredible and still is
You could dance to any of their songs. The horn players rocked.
I loved the 70s. They weren't shy about wild clothes and hair.
Another great Miami band! Black Cuban White all together to this day. It's what makes Miami great 💜💙💚💛💛💛💙💙

At last a Reaction person without any over-the-top exaggerated face expressions. Just nice and clean (and a beautiful reacter at that!). Thank you.
Growing up in the 70's, I always say there was good disco and bad disco...this is one of the good ones! If you want a "creepier" version...Rob Zombie did an awesome cover.
The bands back in the 70's with soul, funk, and disco were lit and when their music came on you moved with the beat.

Those trumpet players were making it look easy with those on beat grooves 🤣
Disco hasnt gone out of fashion and it makes you wanna dance and puts a smile on your face
Because this was during Junior High School years and I was a boy and my younger sister was a girl, I was into harder Rock and she moved through a disco phase although I would say she ended up at Hard Rock anyway. But it was just a thing at the time Rock versus disco but man, there was always something about KC and the Sunshine band, and we had them on an 8-track cassette and could play it on the family stereo system from kmart. They always got to me..
I love watching younger people react to the music i grew up with. Its fun seeing their faces light up when they realize how awesome it is.
I love their clothes too!!!!!!
I love your quiet and reserved reactions. Lovely, silky voice too.
If you look at the official video of 'Disco Inferno' by The Trammps.....you can see him playing keyboards in the background. I went to see them about 3 years ago at The Grand Sierra Casino in Reno.

You will probably never see this much concentrated Seventies in one place.
Your music appreciation is contagious 😊 Keep doing you.
Thank you 🙏🏽
Incredible. I grew up with this.
OUTSTANDING YOUNG LADY...
You have to review Earth, Wind, and Fire,s Fantasy. I saw them live twice. The horn section is amazing. The costumes, amazing too. The visuals, the music, omg.
Check out KC's "I Get Lifted"......a song sampled a zillion times by Hip-Hop artists..Hard funk groove.
They sang for almost 3 hrs. in their concert in 2019. He said he was more like KFC now. lol great show.
You are as beautiful as your wonderful voice, thanks for sharing.
I saw them live twice. They are great live... The horns are fantastic. Everybody is dancing
I played sax some as a kid, and the amazing part to me is the guys dancing with the horns for the breath control it would take to not only play, but keep moving. I would faint in a minute flat, my vision going dark. That's why I have a theory when everything stops and the camera zooms on the drummer so he can do his thing, everyone else is just taking a deep breath.
Most of there songs have that kind of energy. Love your reactions
