KC is a national treasure.

[@austinreid5032]

Kc a massive influence in the music of the 70s .

[@bobbywilliams959]

I was a teenager in the 70s loved K.C. and the sunshine band he music helped me thru some dark times in my life Thanks K.C.!

[@charliesierra6919]

I always said KC was the happiest music ever.

[@MikeUIibarri]

Homeboy was a god back in the day.

[@dskywalker3397]

Born in 67, grew up in the 70’s: I recall KC and all of the Sunshine Band as an act that was unparalleled. No one put on a performance like this group.

[@mikearchibald744]

I liked them as a little kid, then hated them as a young adult, and like them again as an adult. Nothing wrong with disco, and nothing wrong with upbeat music.

[@Godskeiki]

​@@mikearchibald744 that's so funny. Me too! How I wish I was 18-25 in 1977.

[@Gexxon]

Although i bought all of KCSB's music as a kid, I can't say that "no one" put on a performance like them. I guess you never saw Earth Wind and Fire in concert during that same period. EWF had thee absolute best visual shows in the world at that time. No one could top EWF's visuals and there live sounds that were just like their recordings. They were amazing.

[@dainasworldnumbers88]

Nope!

[@toddgriffith5242]

I saw KC in concert. One of the best I've ever seen. Fun!

[@jjzuc]

Just worked with him a couple of years ago. Still doing a great show. You have to give him credit for the fact that he came back in the 80's with one of his best songs "Give It Up".

[@powerpopaholic876]

John Zucco Hey you know good songwriting never goes out of style, and a good songwriter never forgets how to write or and wants to keep writing.

[@sodapopinski690]

There is no better song to dance to in a dance club than 'That's the way I like it'. The pounding beat, the droning bass guitar line, and the back up singers singing 'oooohhh ooooohhhh oooooohhhh oooooooohhhhh ooooooohhhhhh'....

[@jppagetoo]

Good lord, I saw KC & the Sunshine Band perform in front of the castle at Walt Disney World on New Years Eve sometime around '76 or so. I was never a big disco fan but I am glad to have seen that back then. You gotta admit... he knew how to write a hooky song.

[@codzydee1870]

[@RocStarr913]

I’m an American and I agree that KC was underrated here. The problem is that the music industry is always so big and so varied here and the most popular performers and singles tend to get treated like their level of commercialism somehow doesn’t mean there wasn’t real talent possessed.

[@poppyneese1811]

That’s The Way Mr, KC I Still Like It! Monster where I am I hear KC and instantly I’m a teen again, Thank You KC!!!

I saw him & the SSBand at Disney World at the height of his fame. I was standing about 8 ft from the stage. It was electrifying! There is nothing like live music & KC had a hot bod to boot! Such good times.

KC is a musical genius! I always thought he is a great talent! As far as any negative comments that are posted here, ask yourself this question: If you don't like KC, why did you even watch this video.......or even come to this video to begin with?? I know if there is a musical artist I don't like, I just avoid them on KZbin. Makes you wonder why the haters in the comment section even came here in the first place, and did not avoid this video. In fact, they even watched it. Sounds like closet KC fans. KC RULES...HE IS THE BEST!!

[@jackmorgan1677]

You shouldn't be asking why these KC haters come here, you should be asking; would the world be a more happy place WITHOUT KC and the Sunshine Band music? Even the haters would have to admit that this music makes the world a tiny bit happier for a lot of people, even if THEY don't like it.

[@turn-n-burn1421]

I don't recall the month, but in 1994, I was with a friend who was a drummer in a small-time metal band. We used to tease each other about a variety of things. We'd just flown from Nashville to LAX. Walked out onto the sidewalk to wait for the shuttle to take us to the Hertz car rental site. Someone walked up almost right beside me and I looked over briefly and it was K.C. (Casey). I turned to my friend and told him this was his big chance and if he wants I'll introduce ourselves and get him set up with an audition. It was funny, but it was actually K.C. and a group of people with him. I guess his band at the time.

Looks like Harry got married (he was 61 in this video)! YAYYY for him - I hope he has a happy rest of his life, and may God continue to bless him!!! Anyone know who Harry was married to at this point in his life?! I thought I read that his wife unfortunately died of cancer, but he may have remarried. It's unfortunate that he never had any children (that we know of) to pass on his amazing talents to. I also read that he's been married to the same woman for the past 40 years, in a recent video, he says he's single....so it's hard to know what the truth is.

[@mercedesferreira2058]

[@User-x5s3x]

​​​​@@rorydedman55: There's no proof of that story - only innuendo. I've seen him wearing 2 different styles of wedding bands, so he's been married at least twice. I know Harry supports the gay lifestyle, but I've never seen anything official, that says that he also lived the lifestyle himself. Just because he lived with a gay child molester doesn't mean he was one as well. Read up on Finch; he was arrested on a morals charge; there's a video on here about it.
