OH YES!| FIRST TIME HEARING Heatwave - Boogie Nights REACTION

[@surlechapeau]

Jay & Amber, you'll love their "Groove Line" and "Always and Forever"!!!

[@blackblake3658]

Groove Line is my go-to Old School dance song. I have to bring out all the moves. 🤣

[@louisb5563]

Rod Temperton who wrote the Michael Jackson hits "Off The Wall", "Rock With You" and "Thriller" (!) as well as "Stomp" by the Brothers Johnson. Temperton was a favorite of Quincy Jones. He also wrote "Give Me The Night" from George Benson and the other Heatwave hits as well as "Baby, Come To Me" and "Ya Mo Be There". Just a stellar songwriter and producer.

[@drunettaspencer1653]

Right

[@MrJacormer555]

He was super talented!

[@poppingjaz]

right, Rock With You was originally written for Heatwave but the band passed on the cut and it went to Michael.

[@AdultThirdCultureKid1971]

That's awesome! I didn't know that Rod Temperton wrote "Give Me the Night" by George Benson, "Baby, Come To Me" and "Ya Mo Be There."

[@donnabrooks7098]

Also, Rod Temperton wrote “Spice of Life” for The Manhattan Transfer. Janis Siegel kills it! It would be a great choice for Female Friday (hint, hint).

[@a2zme]

The more you think about it the quicker you realize that the 70s will never be touched again, musically. So many genres .. so many masters .. so many great songs.

[@geoffthomas3238]

When you really stop and look at it the 70s truly are untouchable in music. So much at such hi quality. 70s soft rock, 70s R&B, 70s Hard Rock, 70s Singer/Songwriters, 70s Funk, 70s Disco (sure we all acted like we hated it but revisiting now great stuff) 70s Country, 70s Southern/Country Rock, The Beatles split in 1970 and in steps another Englishman Elton John to dominate the charts in the first half of the decade, Sammy Davis Jr had chat hits including a #1 in the 70s and the great crooners crooned through the decade. 70s brought the great Soul sound particularly from Philly. It was the decade of Soul Train. And a young lady named Linda Ronstadt who could sing all of this stuff and more better than anybody else. There just isn’t a decade before or since with the great music in genre after genre the music you still hear in movies and commercials today. 70s rule.

[@michlkwitz]

It was about the music back then. Today, the record company execs. don't give a damn whether what they put out is good or bad, they just care that it sells. And if it doesn't sell, well there's a whole line of bad singers lined up outside the door for their 15 minutes of Autotuned fame. And yes, I acknowledge just how jaded I've become in the last decade.

[@richardburnett6123]

All that chat at the end would lead to your next choice, "Funkin' for Jamaica" by Tom Browne.

[@TheCornishCockney]

@@geoffthomas3238 Agree to a point,and that point being the sexy 60’s,without which,music would have taken a very different turn. The 70’s rules for the sheer output of quality in EVERY genre,but credit to the 60’s too.

Kids today don't hear it, unlike in our day when we heard all sorts of music.... often on a crap AM station! 😅

[@priestpega]

I disagree. I also grew up in the 70s and most of us didn't dare to hit the disco floor on a Saturday night unless we have practiced our dance moves the entire prior week! Particularly the hustle which required coordination between you and your dance partner.

From humble beginnings in Cleethorpes UK and replying to an ad in Melody Maker Rod Temperton was to become the keyboardist for Heatwave. The band was made up of American, Swiss, Jamaican, Czech and English musicians, but the group originated in London. Rod Temperton was their principal songwriter and what a guy. He also wrote, Off The Wall, Thriller, Rock With You, Baby Be Mine for Michael Jackson, Give Me The Night, Love X Love for George Benson, Razzamatazz by Quincy Jones, Spice Of Life by Manhattan Transfer, Stomp by Brothers Johnson, and plenty others. An amazing songwriter, sadly no longer with us ❤️

[@triggerwarning5762]

Have we done "Stomp" yet, Robsquad?

[@funkymonkey65]

Here here, I only found out about 5 years ago about the time he died,although I know he wrote some tunes for off the wall and George Benson, what an influential songwriter

[@leighstreet8298]

Legend has it, Quincy Jones locked rod temperton in a room and watched him compose as, Quincy Jones couldn't believe how rod came up with so many hit song's.

He wrote the songs for Thriller and Rock with You for Michael Jackson

[@MrJacormer555]

Family, you picked an excellent group here. They have some solid hits most topped the R&B charts. The writer of most of the groups songs was Rod Temperton. He later wrote some of Michael Jackson's biggest hits like Rock with you, off the wall and Thriller. Peace ✌️

[@themirrorsofmymind]

I remember when Micheal Jackson died and people all over _KZbin_ and _Facebook_ were all, *_"Did you know he didn't write _The Man in The Mirror?"_* (sic) I was like, *_"Did YOU know he didn't write _Thriller, Off the Wall, or Human Nature?"_* It just irked me that because some were too lazy to read the liner notes for his albums they acted like it was this huge revelation that he didn't write all the songs he sang...

Wow! Taking me back to middle school! The whistful intro and outro give you the feeling of going back in time to those type of parties. The type of conversation you hear in the background as the song ends is spot on to the kind of things you would actually hear. Try "Groove Line", "Always and Forever", and "Mind Blowing Decisions". The great Rod Temperton wrote or co-wrote many of their hits. He also wrote and produced for Michael Jackson.

In 1978 I went to Spain with my high school Summer School Abroad program. I was 16, there was no drinking age, we were living in a dorm at the University of Salamanca, and going to the disco quite a bit. Heatwave’s Groove Line was a big hit. Also, back then Saturday Night Live was the big movie in Europe. It was released in the US in 1977 but in the old days it usually was released internationally the next year, so 1978 was a good year for disco in Spain. I hope your next Heatwave reaction is Groove Line. Thanks for this reaction.

[@sysanfo]

Thank You for listening to my request 😊 Pair this with Disco Inferno by Trammps, Get Down Tonight by KC and the Sunshine Band, Donna Summer's songs, and a great many others to make the 70s dance party mix!

[@suemcglone2151]

Aside from Boogie Nights (which never failed to get people dancing!), The Groove Line was another good track. But one of, if not their most successful songs was, 'Always & Forever' - which isn't disco - but was definitely one that DJs used to put on at the end of the night for that last smoochy dance for couples. I think you'll love it.

[@annemariemcnamara8756]

Remember hearing this in my high school cafeteria. It’s funny back then there were clear lines drawn you either were Disco or you were Rock. I never fell under any as I loved music, R&B, Rock an Disco loved to dance but loved going to Rock clubs an watching Twisted Sister or Ramona’s. This song brings back great memories to a time that just seemed uncomplicated it was a great time to live

[@mrtim2kl4]

Now this is a good example of Disco Funk. This was their debut album in 1976 and Boogie nights was a huge hit and stlii is to this day, but also the slow jam from the same album, Always and Forever (which gave us youngsters a chance to get up close to boys/girls we were attracted to on the dance floor without the awkwardness) was really really big as well. They followed that up in 1977 with another big funky hit song "The Grooveline" , one of my faves.... I'm so glad you guys discovered them because they were such a big part of our younger days...Blessings!

Ooooo weeee ... a whole party just with Heatwave. Dancing, slow dancing, all of it!

Gotta keep on dancing, feel that boogie beat, everyone up on their feet, get that boogie fever. ✌️

Heatwave yes! This song was a banger back in the day. They also had one of the most romantic songs ever in my opinion "Always & Forever" There is a live version. The lead singer Johnnie Wilder Jr. is so good that he sounds better in the live version.

When Heatwave hooked up with Rod Templeton the magic began, what a great sound ❤🇬🇧

Rod was the man!
