Sly Fox ~ Let's Go All The Way 1985 Funky Purrfection Version

Sly Fox was an American pop duo, Gary "Mudbone" Cooper and Michael Camacho. The duo came to prominence in the mid-1980s with their UK/U.S. top 10 hit single "Let's Go All the Way". They released one studio album of the same name which charted within the U.S. Top 40, and a couple of subsequent singles before breaking up.
The duo were wholesome, clean-living teen idols assembled by record producer Ted Currier. Cooper, a funk session musician, had previously been a vocalist with Parliament-Funkadelic and Bootsy's Rubber Band. Camacho was a protégé of David Bowie. The group's touring band included Cooper's former Rubber Band bandmates Frank "Kash" Waddy (drums), Joel "Razor Sharp" Johnson (keyboards), and Flip Cornett (guitar/bass), along with "Bad Boy Troy" Tipton (guitar), Greg Seay, and current Zapp keyboardist, Greg Jackson.
Their sole album, Let's Go All the Way, was released on Capitol Records in December 1985. The eponymous track became a top 10 hit in both the U.S. and UK in 1986. The follow-up singles "Como Tu Te Llama", "Stay True" and "Don't Play with Fire" did not perform as well and sold poorly. The group disbanded in 1988.
In 1989, Sly Fox reformed briefly in Cincinnati, Ohio. With a demo budget from Bill Laswell, the duo recorded four songs, including Cooper’s “There’s No Place Like Home”. The recording sessions included musicians James Ibold (guitar), Chris Sherman (bass), Casey McKeown (keyboard) and Johnny Miracle (drums). Previously unsettled artistic differences arose between the duo, and they abruptly separated again. Cooper returned to tour with George Clinton, while Camacho headed to Los Angeles to focus on a film career.
Since the dissolution of the group, Cooper has remained involved in the music industry. His most recent album, 2006's Fresh Mud, was a collaboration with Dave Stewart that combined blues and rap. Camacho has concentrated on acting, directing, and singing. He released the solo album Just for You in 2007. He is also a proprietor of a well-known jazz lounge and bar in New York City and has started a funk band named The Funky Foxes.

This song went from everybody playing it on every pop radio station simultaneously, to no one even remembering it, to a couple thousand views on KZbin.

You opened a wonderful group for me, thank you. In the Soviet Union, one could not even dream of listening to such music. And even in free times, this group was forgotten. It's a pity ... Thank you for reminding me and introducing me!

Really captures the grim flip side of the 1980s.

[@bgivesumoore]

Vvv

[@Marcel_Audubon]

grim? how so?

[@vladimirenlow4388]

@@Marcel_Audubon Not everything about the '80s was shiny and peppy and Day-Glo colored. The inner cities were disaster areas, with the feds and police fighting the "War on Drugs" causing almost as much violence as the drug-runners themselves. AIDS was running rampant and governments wouldn't do anything because they were hoping the disease would kill all the right people. Reaganomics boosted the economy as a whole but at the cost of severe cutbacks to programs to help the poor. Listen to the lyrics: they are distinctly anti-capitalist, anti-corporate and motivated by an urge for social change. They reference the rampant crime of 1980s NYC and the complacency of an American culture awash in mindless consumerism and celebrity worship.

Thank you dear DJDiscoCat. This song from Gary Cooper alias Sly Fox is one of my all time favorites. This and the fantastic „Como Tu Te Llama“. These are one of the most underrated songs from the mid 80ies. Please create a mix from „Como Tu Te Llama“, too. Servus from Bavaria

Reminds me of being a kid in the 80's Wow

[@ShanaKendle]

Same.. I miss it.

[@saj8]

The rhythm track reminds me of A Fly Girl by the Boogie Boys.

[@greezythumb]

Actually it is the same. Boogie Boys recorded it first in early 1985. Sly Fox recorded it in Dec 1985. Both versions were produced by Ted Currier. Talk about milking something for all it's worth 😂😂😂

[@jasonfowler420]

Hey man I just wanted to say I came across your channel a couple of years ago and you are one of the best by far! I love your remixes. I know it was an older one but Iove the remix that you did of Georgy Porgy by Toto! I've always loved that song. They are still a very underrated band. This song was badass too. I was born in 79 so I at least got to hear this song when it came out. Keep doing what you are doing it's all great. There was a couple of songs I would love for you to cover someday hopefully. I always thought Sergio Mendes was badass and his song Alibis was very good. The other one was Eye to Eye by Go West. I always liked them too and not just for that song. I like the regular version and The Horizontal Mix as well! If you could do a remix for those two that would be awesome. Unless by some chance you all ready have. Either way thanks DJ Disco Cat for all that you do 👍🤛👌💪🙏
