Music video by Kool & The Gang performing Steppin' Out. (C) 1981 The Island Def Jam Music Group

[@bemiyange7913]

The period when music had value. Unforgettable 70s and 80s.

[@willnath137]

That's really right and cool.😎

[@zithulelegasa9638]

When life was life to live

[@pantoanticomunistaa6242]

X2, I'm completely agree

[@yolandawilliams5318]

These definitely were songs to sing to without hearing a lot of bleep bleep this and bleep bleep that make me wanna grab a condom and wrap my ears😂😂😂😂

[@mark1968]

I remember when this song was released. I was young and carefree back then. I am an old fart now, but still love it. Takes me right back to my youth before I had any aches and pains. This song eases my pains. Timeless classic.

[@Fractal379]

You aint old!

[@yahoo8844]

I am born in 1968. Like you, apparently. Never old

[@juliakate5684]

I was born In 1963 . Never dyed my blonde so been blessed . For the first time I will put some highlights in it for my daughters wedding . I still go to Karoake. Yes the time has gone fast . We now look at it on utube . I don’t have any aches and pains and no grey or coloured hair . I feel Young

[@MelRiley-pz3je]

Absolutely absolutely

[@fandialamak7764]

James"JT"Taylor and his distinctive persona and vocals was the main draw of Kool and the Gang in the 80s.

[@robocop5935]

The biggest rivalry to earth wind and fire.??. I think kool by a nose. Both legendary.

[@b20f08]

Diffferent approaches to me. But I did favour Kool and the Gang simply because their tunes got me moving on the dance floor much more and I preferred their tunes. EWF had a greater appeal globally and engendered the same response: you could not resist the groove. Cheers..

[@robterm6508]

Kool and The Gang, no doubt one of the best soul, funk old school bands of all-time.They are marvelous.JT the lead singer back in the days. They have classy music and a joy to listen to.

[@do7hemath937]

Very few good bands like this around. & if they're around, they're not on mainstream radio.

[@phillipkali4438]

Absolutely superb song.

[@jeffreymccandless4281]

Bring back the disco ball!

[@stonelove919]

I was a bartender in a disco in the early 80s and they let me DJ some. I opened with this song some nights and people would flock to the dance floor. Looked like a stampede.

[@guillermowijdemans1587]

They we're PRIVILEGED. They just didnt know.

[@GainasBuzz]

@@guillermowijdemans1587 Nah man, it was life. And life didn't get better. That is not on the people of the past ,lol. Joker. You are dividing.

[@elogan4820]

I bet it did look like a stampede! Thanks for the visual from a happy time!

[@MajorMovesB-ball]

Dude I'm so jealous, me and my old soul listen to Kool & TG, The Whispers, The Gap Band, the Disco greats... while practising basketball. I tell you, you've never seen anyone get into a "groove" like me listening to "Let's Groove Tonight" haha

[@MajorMovesB-ball]

Honestly if there was an acceptable way to bring back disco, I'd try it myself

[@fantom007miami]

Folks... "Kool and The Gang" not only wrote their own songs but they wrote and produced several others... And James "JT" Taylor ... the lead singer wrote also!

Newly inductee of the 2024 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame! Kool and the Gang! Long time overdue but finally they made it

[@25lat]

This song was made for skating... it has the perfect sound and beat to Rock and Step to!!!!... So many memories of this timeless classic!!!

[@osasqee]

Great song! Kool & The Gang were my favorite group throughout the 80s. This song reminds me of "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough," the rhythm, horns, and falsetto

[@TerraRyzinglives]

It could have been on Off the Wall or Triumph for sure

[@ja-onegames6924]

It does actually

[@sofiaquintero8618]

How did I forget about this great tune, killer base line and vocals, their best and under rated tune surely

[@budahed54]

What's a base line?

[@sylviamaua745]

[@eviapugh]

So underrated

[@TumanyanArmen]

We live in the past. No decent music bands like Kool and the Gang exist now. Not anything even close.

[@luzdivinawerner3772]

I agree..😊

[@sarahwalker377]

Yes, but it doesn't matter, we have them all night, all here. So good that funk..............

[@MrIrrepressible]

There are good bands out there. They're just not mainstream...u have to search for them.

[@kuroinoakuma69]

Daft punk, jamiroquai, bruno mars, justin timberlake, dua lipa. They all make disco and funk music and its pretty good.

[@rockstarrevival]

Check out Chromeo

[@mannanankgabutle45]

The 80's gave us the real taste of funk, disco, clean lyrics and dance.

Love Kool and the gang. Brings me back to happy times....dancing no worries. Happiness...C'mon people....let's get it together and get along. Listen to good music such as this and relax

[@Mauroplcr]

so many memories, real music. I had the opportunity to go to a Kool and the Gang concert in the 1990s. What an evening, never seen such an atmosphere. This is lacking these days.

[@ladygodiva9461]

I saw them live in Augsburg Bayern. It was a gigantic concert. Unforgettable 💥😃

[@JackRossiney]

Absolutely great memory of this record in 81'/82', remembering it in one of the fantastic disco clubs that I used to go to in the late 70's/early 80's , and the great times I had along with my friends meeting many attractive and smartly dressed girls on and off the dance floor. The disco scene in the mid 70's to early 80's was glorious.

[@freddietrich825]

Encore!

[@kainoaahquin6620]

Back when Musicians never cussed in their songs, and the music was meaningful. I’m glad that i grew up listening to Oldies instead of the bs today, the music today is trash. Oldies is all my old man ever listened to, even till this day he bumps all these old skool jams, lol. Brings back good memories, and i’m 28 now.

[@stormyweather4489]

Being born in 1978 I would say this music is before my time. However, love music through the 1960s/1970s/1980s. The music is just timeless! So "beautifully" expressed by all those that music back then

[@luzdivinawerner3772]

Love it...💜💜💜

[@michaelenebindoo1464]

When music was music. 🕺❤😍. Bring back the good old days.

[@EfefoodKitchen]

Wow amazing song 💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼 I love how their dance moves are all in sync

[@Mcgriffin67]

My boy JT does his thang! Homeboy just jumped on this joint with the Debarge falsetto!! This particular album "Something Special" showcased his range a ton especially with "Take My Heart (you can have it).

[@adamwillis6975]

This song does not get the air time it deserves. It's such an underrated song, the vocals and groove are absolutely epic!! This is real music!! I was born in 1980 yet i will gladly keep the 70's vibe going in my soul for the rest of my days. I do not like where music has gone. Its so inharmonious and empty.

[@static_anachromatic]

Couldn't agree more!

[@martinplatt5928]

Well sad.....check out Fat Larry's Band....Earth, Wind and Fire and Atlantic Starr.....and the brilliant Ronnie Laws "All for you"....so much great music then....me? I was born in 1958 so already in my 20s even then LOL

[@adamwillis6975]

Martin Platt My late Dad had most of those in his collection Martin and more. He was very much a soulful music man. He loved Motown, soft rock and the r&b funk era etc. I literally grew up with this music. Real music by real talented artists who loved their craft.

[@martinplatt5928]

adam willis Sorry Adam I meant WELL SAID....my spelling error! That sounds great as does all this style of music.

[@adamwillis6975]

Martin Platt It's ok Martin i actually read it as well said initially, but then saw afterwards that it said sad. I knew what you meant to say though. Thanks

I'm sure my mum played this at her 1981 house party 🥳 she loves this group. Xmas lights in the lounge for dancing and mixtapes on the hifi. Buffet and drinks in the kitchen, all family and neighbours invited while me n my sis packed off to nanny's and gramps for a sleepover. Ahh mummy I love you so much.🥰❤

[@barondeanemmanuel2486]

Brings tears watching and listening. Was in my early teens. Dad was expat, took us to Enugu, Nigeria. My boys George, Andy and Noel, where y'all at? We grooved to Ronnie Bell, JT and the gang. We grooved to the Whispers, Rafael Cameron, Fatback Band, Lionel, can't forget Cameo. Had my best teenage years back at the mother continent.
