- This is an extended version of a classic that was far too short. This is my first bit of editing, but I think it came out well. I would appreciate feedback:). I know it's a little ghetto, but it's my first try at music alteration and the like.
This is long, I know. But turn it on and turn of the lights, close your eyes, and relax... It's crazy!
I've gotten a decent amount of requests for an mp3. If you PM me your email address, I'll send it along.

I'm a Old G from NYC now living in Miami for the past 11 years. When this song came out it took the music scene by storm. It was so popular that alot of radio disc jockeys used it as their theme song....but the best I ever saw it being used was when I went to the planaturiam and I had smoked a joint before I went in...it was pitch black and the seats were design for you to lean back and look up because the ceiling is the screen...the solar system appeared and Kool and the Gang's Summer Madness started playing...WOW...what a mind blowing experience....the planets were revolving and the comets were shooting accross the wide ceiling...every time I hear this song, it reminds me of that experience...as long as I live, I'll never forget it..and I'm 68 as of April 16, 2016...I saw Kool and the Gang last month ( March 2016) at Jazz in the Garden here in Miami and they played this tune...Still sounded great....
WOW!!! I gotta try the planetarium experience...
That image of the Planatarium: It doesn't get any better.
dang og you was meant to comment on this here.
That is a great anecdote, love that. I was on beach in the UK (yeah, it can get warm here -(!) and I first heard this as the sun was setting, being played on a fella's stereo as the sun was going down and the sea had that glazing look about it. I was only 10 and I always remember it. Such a tune, it IS the summer.
Beautiful story.
There used to be a time when you knew it 1200pm. In Detroit on the radio station WJLB. They would play this song so that all the factory workers knew half the day was done. All we needed next was some Earth Wind and Fire to take us to quitting time. I remember this like it was yesterday...working at the Detroit - Hamtramck Assembly Plant.
Sounds like a wonderful memory! Memories are awesome, aren't they? That's one thing that no-one can take away from you.
+Tracy Simms you that was a sign of the times...Detroit life in the 1970s.
except Alzheimers, God forbid!
Welcome to the second hour of Pillowtalk. This was a late night show hosted by Allen Almond on WNIC 100.3 FM. This show would wrap-up every night at mid-night. My girlfriend (who became my wife) and I would listen to his show dreaming and enjoy each other’s company. After we were married and had kids. My wife called his show and had Mr. Almond say good-night to our kids on the air waves. It was a very hot night, the kids couldn’t sleep. All of the windows were open with the soft smooth jams playing through the house. Mr. Almond came on the air and said Good-Night to them in the way only he could.
One of my favorite tunes…………. Lots of great memories attached to it………..
that's an awesome memory. one i wish i was old enough to experience. im 20 and i hear stories from old school cats like you guys and i truly think i was born in the wrong generation. i wonder if i can find reruns or tapes of pillowtalk. it makes me wonder what happened to our world that nice personal experiences like these don't hapeen anymore
One of the baddest songs ever!!! I still BLAST this in my car
+Sihlanque Cole baddest meaning like good lol

The Seventies, where music went in ALL directions. Thanks for posting!
It was in jazz music the "jazz fusion era" when electronics was really making new musical sounds, especially for guitars & keyboards! really was a cool time to be in !!!!!!!
Beautiful beyond words .. No need for wor

Music that stands the test of time. still fresh and so clean clean 30+ years later
You mean 40 years later right?
BEAUTIFUL. Clean. Music
40 Plus years
More like FOURTY-FIVE YEARS & COUNTING (as of Feb/2020 ;. )
This song is absolutely timeless, because after 41 years it still sounds good. Kool and the Gang KILLED THIS SONG & I LOVE IT💖💖💖
As far as I hear no one has successfully tried a remake.
b.monroe..paul hardcastle has sampled it👍

una grealy..yeh ur so right..great choon..check out paul hardcastle summer love instrumental version..let me know☺
I totally agree with you. Perfection
cannot be duplicated or tampered
with.😗☺
Whoever said that time travel isn't possible wasn't using music as the venue. In 1974, I was a really young teen in a music store on Mission Blvd. in Hayward Ca. When I first heard this song I was checking out black light posters and there was the smell of Jasmine incense in the air.
This transported me back to my teenage years: Saturday picnics in the park. Dreamin' of a life we had not yet seen. To be able to go back to those carefree days would be wonderful. But this song takes me there.....
Right on,.. right on.
Diane Franks Take me with you Diane, I want to go back to my youth, help me please...lol....Peace and Love
I hear you man, but keep this in mind: we can travel back and remember those halcyon days only because we live on. Every day is a gift, and with any luck we'll all be looking back on these days with the same fondness that we have for our youth...in about forty years :) God bless.
Amen.
my mother loved this song & so do I, R.I.P. MOM, I LOVE YOU & MISS YOU,5/3/ 2005, AND MY BROTHER 5/9/2015. DEICATED, TO MY BROTHER AS WELL,

The best stepping music there is
I was born in the 70's It sounds so good don't you agree!🌍🏖️🏜️🗼⛲🎡🎠🌃🌇🚡🕕🌝🌝🌑🌗🌚
Nothing touches this. Just the intro throws you into that mood of yesterday.
This was the musical back drop of the 70s , late nights at Rock Creek Park, East Potomac Park and/or Anacostia Park in Washington, DC with the aroma of reefa in the air, giving someone five, slappin skins, jonin and talking about the come up! Sweet Memories!
yes sir!!!!!!
I’m from PG County so I felt this comment in my soul.
Anthony Hill talk that talk😍❤️
Alright now
"Summer Madness." Still takes me to that plateau. Special to me because this was my high school graduation year.
You old head
yes,yes,yes
The chords are bm7 & c#m7 through the whole song, simple just two jazz chords & yet it is an instrumental jazz masterpiece still being played after 42 years since 1974 !!!!!
that 'crunchy' bass sound gets me.
I AM HAPPY I CAME TO THIS ON FB NOBODY CAN TAKE OLD SCHOOL AWAY!
I Listened to this as a Cool Cat in the 9th Grade, My Dad was a Tuskegee Fighter Pilot, Air Force Reservist, a Giant a Great Mathematical Wizard who told me if it isn't Jazz its for The idiots who follow. The Roy Ayers, Micheal Henderson, Norman Connors, Lonnie Listening Smith, Leon Ware, Gino Vanneli, AWB ............
This song is timeless, & alter 41 years it's still awesome
Virginia Grandy you can say that again! Oh hollup... Ya did actually post 2x girl!!! Ahahahahah (OMG I laughed such a high squeak it would fit right on in this song huh)
Absolutely the greatest instrumental song of all time. My go to song when im down and out.
This is one of my favorite songs ever and I am almost 46. I had a blessed child hood to be exposed to this greatness!
agreed
YES INDEED !!!
Indeed!
listening to this song just puts u n another place n space, it's like having your mind free to do or imagine being or doing anything or one. like floating in space looking down at yourself n wondering "Dam, is this shit real".....
Had me back in the day, had me in a daze.. after 41 years I can look bck and say makes me feel like then!.. groovy mix I will never forget
Chicago 80's barbeque summertime music ..back in the good ole days..
MsFitByDezign Bey it wasn't just Chicago my guy So.Cal as well
Rainbow beach and driving down Lake Shore Drive in the early morning hours with the music blasting, and the windows down.

Don't you mean 70's? This was 1974.
What's love is that it's 2018 and you'll still hear this playing at every barbeque and family reunion in Chicago, LOL. 70's, 80's, 90's, 00's, 10's and beyond! Peace!
This is awesome. I just love this for relaxing. it makes me think of things beautiful beyond this world.....Mellow,
Angel Rose PREACH ON
You better know it
I find it amazing how I grew up on Tupac, old-school west coast and NY hiphop, then ventured into indie metal, r&b, house, and now I'm coming to this stuff. This music makes me feel like my spirit is coming home. This is simply the greatest music I've ever heard.
Thank you kool and the gang for helping us heal...
1974 HAD PLENTY OF EVERY THING/ THE SONG SAIDS IT ALL!
I Do Agree!!! With All, This Has To Be One Of The Greatest Songs Out There!

+robert gascon A reefer! (LOL) You sound like my mom talking about them weeds. (Back in the day of course). ("Didn't I tell you don't be bringing them weeds in my house").
+Kitty Diann, that quote by your mom was HILARIOUS! Sounds like something my mom would've said!!
OMG!!!!!!wonderful,wonderful sound Of wonderful 'Jazz Music' !!!!!!!!
Helena Herrera, its like being on a wave on the pacific ocean, hearing this song. Real music. Just real.
im sitting under a palm tree watching the ocean waves crash on the sand. cool breeze hits me every now and then. and a good looking cabana boy is rubbing my feet :)
Huni Brown, You go Girl .. : )
HAHAAAAHA!
This is some funky R&b riffs up and down the scales, soul music. You had to be there baby. This is not jazz.
takes me back home to detroit...listened to this plenty nights cruising around Belle Isle.....
lord have mercy, man we use to be on Belle isls in Detroit, chillin on the weekend. Bbq, Mac and cheese everywhere.
Good times in Detroit regardless what any body says.
damn from Detroit too brother remember after hours host he closed with this song
I miss Lansing M
I can remember the time that I spent in Detroit in the early 80's visiting family and going out to Belle Isle listening to the Isley Brothers hit Grove With You. Brings back nice memories of days gone by
Kevin Krouse, Sr for real I can dig it....
This is a nice song to listen to when I go out on my summer night drives. :-)
I know that's right
I agree. Also ....."Fantasy", by Earth, Wind and Fire!
Bea Good "Sun Goddess" also by EWF.
James Johnson with your wife
RIP the late, night DJ Alan Almond. This was his signature farewell song every evening on the radio. Not really my kind of Radio, but love "Kool & the Gang", "EW&Fire", etc... and this extended version is a good trip.
1stSaintsFan
Oh yeah, I remember that--he played this as the last tune on his show every night at midnight----I used to listen to Almond's show as a teen back in the day on summer nights and that's how I got to really appreciate and love this tune-----I was surprised to find out that it was by Kill and the Gang, because it was an instrumental. I also recall Almond being briefly on the now-defunct WJZZ FM. 107.5 , which was a full-time jazz station until 1997, when the format suddenly switched to R&B/hip-hop. He was only on there for a minute,though----don't know why, as it seemed like his smooth style was a good fit for the format.
rainmaker690
Oops--I meant to say Kool and The Gang---ugh!
+rainmaker690 YES IT WAS SMOOTH, BUT SATAN DON'T WANT SMOOTH BROTHER , BECAUSE SMOOTH HELPS YOU TO THINK ........................................
ONE OF GREATEST TRACKS EVER MADE TIMELESS SOUL ,WE WORKED WITH THEM GREAT GUYS
1974 was the best summer madness mellow mellow
This one beautiful song. It's really sensual. Just being together with your special person and listening to the music. Music nowadays...Nothing close to this.
Driving to this during sunset or night is freakin' awesome!!! ;D
Yes it would, riding on a unicycle along the beach promenade too maybe?
A unicycle?? This is the kind of song where you chill with you babe on a beach, maybe while enjoying some rum.
skyraiderjet LMFAO "a unicycle", shit had me dying XD
Amen!
lol
One of the koolest songs ever
+Tawasha Walker
OHHHHHHHH yeah!
Fender bass is heavy
Who is jamming along with me to this 2019?
2021
summer 2024
Beautiful
Beautiful! Timeless!
Summer Madness brings me back in time in my mind,reliving the great times I had with high school girls and buddies,it's an awesome song that taps right into my soul and how real the wonderful way I felt the young love of life.
I turned 16 in the summer of "74". This was my jam. Some of my rock and roll buddies didn't get it, I had to cut them from the roster. Lol.
Always better with headphones.
One of the Songs, That reach the charts big time!!
Wow it's been 40 years since this song was released.
blows you away, doesn't it? time flies when you're fully sedated.
Going to drive 1800 miles in July and this cut you mastered will be playing on loop all the way there. Thanks Bro....
music for the mind!
The best music you what to chill and listen too.Just Relaxing Mellow !!
Wow!! This is a masterpiece :)
Classic nothing could ever touch the music of this time.!
Classic Masterpiece that you just can't get any more NOT in this day in age..
takes me back to the sweet 70s....man I miss that decade so much....and I mean the scene not be politics
ACE Champion same here. Those were the great days!
I never imagined the 70's would be the golden era in America.
Great only-instrumental hits were few, and fewer those which got as much air-play as this one. In the mindless sea of disco music of the 70s, this counterintuitive ballsy experiment made it big.
They just have the instrumental geniuses like back in the day. This song never gets old and you have to listen to it multiple times so that your body feels the soul of these men. Thanks and the remix is on point in the right places. Good music to listen to on full blast whether via head phones or stereo system. The louder it is the more it takes you to another planet. You dont want it to end.
this is the best song they EVER did, but try to find their first song, self titled from 1967!" Kool and the Gang " was a song that let you know these cats were for real !!!
Ok got you on that !!
simply one of the best instrumentals
“Don’t want it to end “ WOW THAT TRULY SUMS IT UP…. Beautiful
I'm SO ashamed to admit this but I always thought that Herbbie Hancock did this piece. I actually had an "argument" with a co-worker over this song. I Apologize for MY ignorance. THIS will STILL be the Jam 20, 40, 60 yrs from 2030
he could made it !
Herbie Hancock was the man also, just not this man
It okay
Comfort Zone...........love it!!!!
KJLH was the joint back in the day in Los Angeles. That smooth groove for all those West Coastin' folks!
Brian Keys Yes indeed it was!
I was right there with you...Washington high school, Freemont high school, Fair Fax, Imperial highway etc etc
Kindness-Joy-Love and HAPPINESS indeed!...Don't forget KACE, KGFJ, and the O.G. 1580 KDAY. The roaring 80's in L.A. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it was Samoa in Pittsburgh for me!!!
it came out just fine
just as I remember it
sounding,
quiet storm sample
Damn right
You can THINK about some stuff listening to this! SO MANY MEMORIES...Family, school, boning (LOL), friends, pigtails, GOOD TIMES (literally), sitting/laying on the hood of the car, watching the sun go down...So, wish I could go back to the 70's!
Absolutely! For me this was the greatest decade and era of beautiful,iconic,and thought provoking music.This great jam takes me to so many places... lying on the beach,my bed with my special man who had the magic ability to make me see the sun,the moon,the stars,heaven...the whole universe.Yes,he was THAT good.
Michele Washington They don't make 'em like that anymore!
+KimMe Wyatt - On Air You can do that now.When summer finally comes.
MIKECNW...Can't wait!
Oh Yeaaah!! Kool and the Gang another fine group of yesterday bringing so many memories when music was taken to even a higher level entertainment - Summer Madness! Cruisin music highway bound! and just plain chillin! Soothing to the soul!
SYNTHESIZE THAT!! MY FIRST EMPLOYMENT IN THAT MEMORABLE YEAR OF 1974. I WILL FOREVER ENJOY THIS "CLASSIC". SUMMER MADNESS, SUMMER MADNESS, SUMMER MADNESS. LOVE IT. THANK YOU
KOOL AND THE GANG.
When Best Buy used to let you play samples of music, I went in one day and began playing this song! The song didn't cut off and kept playing and an employee came over and turned it up as loud as it would go and about 20 people came over and asked what it was! When they found out that it was Kool and The Gang, it blew their mind! I Tthen told them WELCOME TO THE MIND BLOWN CLUB! LOVE THIS SONG!!!!
This is an all-time classic. I'll always love it. More sons love it too. How kool is that.
Frankfurt Germany 1976.....Marilyn Spann..Where are you? Remember this? We jammed this onstage in Hanau Germany during the Bicentennial Celebration concert. Just didnt get any better. Did know how good we had it then. GREAT POST!!
EVERY Night in the '80's ALAN ALMAN DETROIT 100.3!!!
vytildie loved listening to Alan Allman, so smooth
CLASSIC! That synthesizer sound kills! Alot of babies was conceived off this joint! :D 1974-84 for sure.

That's what we had bands

Remember driving down Lake Shore Drive at 2 am groovin
I understand the streetlights lights were mercury vapor lights back then though I understand they were planning or working on putting in the modern day sodium lights.
Taking that S curve, and driving to the beat and the sounds of the music. Groovin without a care in the world.
yes I do. Home, Chicago, Illinois!!!!
I wish I could ride too😁
Norman Liverpool Yep! Chicago for sure. Cruising by Lake Michigan.
summer madness is a jazz song on let your top down on your car and just ride to the sun went down.
I grew up in Philadelphia. This reminds me of Spruce Street. The breeze blowing thru the house 🏠

driving on a long road with a clear sky music
Great show and song,excellent group forever KOOL & THE GANG,genius,magic artist,sound acoustic,welcome a board forever excellent,beautiful song.thank forever,forever.
This song brings me great memories of my early teen years with my boyfriend which is now my husband for 38 years. We use to hang out and end the night with this song. It was so relaxing. Loved the high pitch sound the most if you know what I mean in the 1974 years. lololol........
Classic. Never gets old.
House music sit back, relax, take it all in!
I saw them live when they played this i nearly lost my mind it was outside it was free and of course it was summer great
👍👌😩😅😭😄😁
Were you in Atlanta?
This song bring back a lot of memories. Still playing my album.💗💞
Yes!!!! good for my soul back in the day, when everything was possible and family was first... what happen to those days..!!
Peace and love!
Now not everyone was that way and not everyone is the opposite now.Plus my understanding the divorce rate was going up in the 70's.
great music back then! what happen!
Three other tracks comes to mind when I listen to this. 1 Herbie Hancock's, Butterfly (the original from 1974) 2 Ramsey Lewis,
Brazilica 3 Gene Harris's, Theme For Relana. They all have that mellow summer vibe going on. Now that I mention it I've Just thought of another three.
this song sounded mysterious to me as a child, but I liked it!
Cant say enough great things about Kool And The Gang!!!!
I played this so much I had to keep buying the record back in the early
70s!!
Its Still A Favorite !!!!!!
Kool And The Gang!! So Many Great Bands
Back In The Day!! How Blessed Am I!!!!!
Unforgettable song!
I absolutely love this! Keep on keeping on. Peace!
Thanks for that. I've never been in Detroit, but that memory sparked some of my own in San Jose, Calif. growing up. Life was surely different then. This is what America is made of. God Bless this country and our freedoms.
a human can either lose them self,find them self, or create a new sel with this track...1005 pure CLASS...
