OH YEAH!| FIRST TIME HEARING Kool & The Gang - Ladies Night REACTION

[@petercourtien4581]

1980 Friday Night Roller Rink. They played this and only the ladies were allowed to skate. Good times.❤

Yep, shortly before Limbo or shooting the duck.

[@askssk715]

YES! We lived through the best of the best years for sure!

I took a bus to go to the roller rink every Saturday...wish I could live those days again, so fun!!!

...also Peaches and Herb

[@whome1629]

Bernadette Peters was moving 😂

[@JaDav40]

Yeah I believe 1979 as the year Madonna left Michigan and headed to New York to look for fame. It hadn't come yet....but it would.

I think the occasion was Grammy Awards and you sit down. You just do. It’s not a party.

Whatever happened to "feel good" songs like this? Glad I grew up when I did.

[@Dancer810]

Sadly, this feel-good music is no more. That's what I loved about the disco era...all of it was feel-good music that just made you wanna sing or get up and dance your tush off! I was really sad when disco faded. What came after disco is trash! ☹☹☹

This song was SO BIG back in the day! Many will suggest "Celebration" another big hit but I'd suggest "Summer Madness" to welcome in the warm weather! This video is from the American Music Awards I believe.

[@themajicman745]

They also had one called "Winter Sadness"

[@Sweetish_Jeff_]

“Summer Madness” is what can best be described as “baby-making music”. 😉 Seriously, a beautiful song, though, and such a cool vibe.

Summer Madness is incredible. I love the version with lyrics

The audience close-ups show Dionne Warwick and Bernadette Peters, who is a queen of Broadway musicals. Kool and the Gang have a great string of hits and you can easily find more to hear. Seeing Dionne in the audience reminds me of the tribute show that was for her which features one of the best live music videos on the internet - Luther Vandross singing "A House Is Not a Home". If you choose the right video, it will blow you away!

[@jamesway]

They never bothered

[@courtneyperry82]

The song that they have on Saturday Night Fever soundtrack is Open Sesame and for that time that song was fire!

[@courtneyperry82]

That was the American Music Awards show back in the late 70s/early 80s. Not only was Michael Jackson jamming. The ladies were Dionne Warrick in the green dress and the other lady was Bernadette Peters who was the hottest actress on Broadway at the time.

[@wiltchamberlainisthegoat13]

This song was one of Kool and the Gamg’s big hits. In my opinion, it’s an absolute banger! It’s just a really Kool song and it was fun to dance to too!

[@jenniferfoster1692]

They're 100% legendary. I grew up in the 70s/80s and they were just a part of our lives, always on the radio, on Soul Train or American Bandstand, among others.

The song by Kool & the Gang in Saturday Night Fever was "Open Sesame." There were other artist's songs in the movie like (off the top of my head) "If I Can't Have You" by Yvonne Elliman, "K-Gee" by the Nite-Liters, "Disco Inferno" by the Tramps.

[@GinaGeeILuvu]

This is the best of the best by Kool and the Gang. I feel this song started the phenomenon of "Ladies Nights" at all the clubs! This song was a mega hit in the late seventies (1979). This song brought everyone to the dance floor then and it still does today! They were super successful in the seventies and eighties with a string of hits like; "Too Hot", "Celebration", "Joanna", "Cherish", and more! ❤❤

[@Musicvegan01]

The "Saturday Night Fever" soundtrack was a 2 record set (or 1 8-track tape) when it was originally released. The majority of it was previously released songs, like "Disco Inferno" by The Trammps which y'all recently reacted to. The Kool & The Gang song on it is "Open Sesame", which is pre- James JT Taylor (the lead singer here). Their very early stuff had a more jazz sound & was sometimes instrumental like "Summer Madness", which you might have heard sampled in "Summertime" by DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince. Madonna wasn't out yet when "Ladies Night" was released in 1979, that was Bernadette Peters in the audience, an actress/singer.

[@CANDOKNOWHOW]

Summer Madness is a must for my Summertime jams every year, doesn’t even matter that it’s an instrumental as it hits the mood just perfect like a Summer movie soundtrack!

[@charlesmarkley220]

Truly astounding the diversity of great music that came out in that era.

[@willow0828]

The lady you said you didn’t know who she was. She’s Bernadette Peters. She’s a triple threat. She can do it all. Quite an entertainer.

[@gigi-ij1hk]

Probably best known to movie audiences as Lily in the '82 movie of Annie or, going deeper, as Steve Martin's love interest in The Jerk (and in real life at the time). The Jerk came out the same year as this song so Bernadette was blowing up.

[@jeffmaltby6185]

The "if you hear any noise" line was borrowed from P-Funk's "Mothership Connection." Please play "Summer Madness" (from the Rocky soundtrack), "Hollywood Swinging," "Funky Stuff," or "Jungle Boogie" for a taste of the group's original sound from before they started going for the pop audience.

[@jdw5678]

Yes, "Jungle Boogie" and "Hollywood Swinging" from the mid-70s were great hits and nice slabs of raw funk that they released before they went all smooth and glossy (although "Hollywood Swinging" is kind of smooth too).

[@stevedahlberg8680]

AMBER AND J, YOU HAVE TO HEAR JUNGLE BOOGIE BY THEM! IT'S ICONIC! It's funny because the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack was the very first 8-track that my parents bought when they finally went and got us a home stereo system from Kmart in the early to mid 70s. And it's a fantastic soundtrack and the Bee Gees are only on a couple of them. Disco Inferno by the Disco band Tramp, was a huge huge deal and the whole soundtrack is really really good.

[@jaimegarcia6114]

"Summer Madness" is one of their coolest tunes ever....it's an instrumental with all the cool vibes they can muster. The bass line is instantly recognizable as well as the keyboard work making this tune very unique, very smooth, very cool!!! no pun intended. I hope someday you can fit it in your repetoire.

[@CANDOKNOWHOW]

It’s the perfect summer tune for me, I always have it on when summertime rolls round and it pairs up real nice with Roy Ayers- “My Life In The Sunshine”.

Oh what a night. I love Kool & the gang. I was into big band music but I was a little kid. And being it was the Disco era. These men did the best job of smashing the two together. I also play the trumpet, so when those horns blow you got to get on your feet! At least I do. They also brought a word to our vocabulary a word you don't hear any more. This music was downright "funk", a one-of-a-kind groove. I agree with you, how can that audience just sit there!!! They even mix some Marvin Gaye in. Sophisticated mama, what a voice for a generation.
