The very first album I purchased was Wild and Peaceful. Side 1 was great: Funky Stuff, followed by More Funky Stuff, then my favorite song of 1974, Jungle Boogie. Then a slow jam, the title of which escapes me, and the side ended with Hollywood Swinging. Good times!

I was all set to not like them when they did a free concert back in the day in my home town . It was the best live show I'd ever seen . 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👌🏽

[@deloresshephard463]

I love the solos Skip , Dennis and Shawn and ( You got to give the Drummer Some )

[@laraoneal7284]

70s and 80s. Best music ever. Miss those fun times.

[@nashboro1847]

Yeah, I agree K&TG was a straight up jazz/funk band in the 70's. Even James Brown said they had one of the baddest horns sections-then they went pop/disco.

[@johnsullivan2369]

A blast from the past.

[@brunobartolucci1834]

What a groove. Funk Forever !

R.I.P. Ronald 'Khalis' Bell (2020), founding member and saxophonist.

[@ronaldwilson1431]

Robert Kool bell invented funk in the key of E.

[@spacedaddy5517]

They are good live. The bassist is on point, give him a Fender and we would actually hear him.

[@richardtyler8922]

The Bassist is Robert Kool Bell.

[@SmakitNicely]

Who's JT..ain't but one "T" in this group and that's DT on that sax, man...can you dig it?

[@guitarsolos89]

Wow just wow!!!! So happy to have discovered this. Funk overload :)

[@freein2339]

Coldblooded funk.....

[@mickiemaus97]

wow, this drive me crazy!!!

[@ChrisTASUKANO]

wow wow wow wow wow wow...yeah...! I Like it that!

[@MikeHF]

When JT joined this band it was the downfall of brother Kool and the gang! I was digging Kool in 1971!

[@Charles-tt3dr]

+MikeHF I totally agree with you, but when JT joined K & T,G in the late 1970's he extended their success a little longer, because their Soul Jazz, Funk style was starting to sound a little dated.

[@TheBfunky17]

Yeah, When J.T. join the band,,,Their Funk was never the Same!!!, Just a Plan of The man to Destroy The Funk!!!,..

[@jamesgraham3116]

Nope, wasn't a downfall, they just wanted that mainstream success. They actually made more money when they crossed over. I liked them better before the change personally.

[@jamesgraham3116]

Remember, Kool is the one that made the decision to go to the other side. Lionel Ritchie did it and had greater success. You have to realize that show business is 20% show, and 80% business.

[@freein2339]

All about business...they needed hit records and a lot of groups couldn't pull that off after the 70s...Earth Wind and Fire couldn't do it...

[@mofourth4thchild75]

Foreal funk right here!!!

[@keithbeamon1557]
