Best group EVER! Went to their concert in Tampa in the late 80's! They were the BEST! Very dancers & talented entertainers all around! Miss this kind of music!
@ALBAN425 I am sick of it to and i am black ,i hate that rap shit ,they fuck up all the good music,i want some dancing music that you can go out and have a good time and dance to ,so we have to open our own club and play it again ,this is what i am going to do ,play all the music we use to listen to ,you are invited to come by and enjoy our old school club,no young people ,they don't no how to act right,USMC
Absolutely Fabulous!!!! I loved the lttle Shufffle Step. They were fantastic in concert during the 80's. Saw them at Arie Crown Theater in Chicago and Poplar Creek Music Theatre in the Chicago suburb of Hoffman Estates.
@Daddybopper They played it so much on the radio back then that I almost got sick of it. But to hear it over the loud speakers at the skating rink when you're a teen made you feel awesome. Lol those were the days. :)
I heard this song today on my XM radio, and haven't heard it in probably 20+ yrs. I forgot how much I loved this band. Great video, great post! Was definitely boogeying in my chair, even after playing the video for the 3rd time.
I remember this song when I was in college when it was released. Boy, this song isn't even played on the radio airwaves that I know of! What fantastic memories here!
Ohhhhoooo my god where is this decade of music? the best of the best: the 80 s and no more, god in the name of of love, in the name of the good music please bring back all this musicians. i would like write the name of the groups from that years but i think that thanks people like you xyzmikey2 we can enjoy the good memories about the best music forever.
One of my favorite songs ever! I missed this back when it was on Solid Gold, but have watched this video probably 20 times since I found it a couple months ago.
Funny, the band looks like The Fresh Prince of Belair and The Cosby Show went together and formed a band.
Can't stop watching this video. It's like the temptations meets Gun's in Roses. It 's at the cutting edge of R&B and Heavy Metal. Man, I love that guitar player. I love the dance steps. I grew up in the 80's watching Solid Gold. I had a crush on Marlyn McCoo? Was that her name? I think the show came on after Dukes of Hazzard. Can anyone relate? Or am I too old, now? Sombody reply, please!!!!
@derrickpistorius You are not too old. I am not too old. The Dukes of Hazzard came onTV on Friday nights & Solid Gold came on TV on Saturday nights. Those were the days.
This is my favorite video of all time. I watch this at least twice a day since it was posted. What a great performance. They all look so young. The sound is perfect. The guitar work is the best I've seen in years! I love it all! I remember Solid Gold in the 80's, if you were on this show....you had to put out and work it or it would be the end of your band.
Best guitar solo ever......................who is that black guy? He rocks so smoothly.........he is a pro! I love this song and this is the best version of it, what a guitar solo!!!!!!!!
@derrickpistorius The brother on the guitar is Mr. Charles Smith. Sadly, Mr. Smith passed away in June 2006 after a long illness. A true guitar pioneer. I thought that his guitar playing is some of the best that I have ever heard from any guitarist. That guitar solo from the song "Tonight" was awesomely smooth & totally cool. To me that was a combination of R&B & Heavy Metal. That is the kind of guitar sound that I have been looking for & would like to play. Instrumental guitar music ROCKS!!!!
Superbe chanson, on peut dire qu'il ya eu 1 avant et 1 après JT,( le groupe malgré le fait qu'ils disent que Taylor, était, je les cite "1 artiste moyen") ne sait jamais remis de son départ, lui en revanche a sorti de belle "pépites" en solo !
Merci beaucoup!! je suis d'accord avec toi, JT est unique et dans son registre il n'a pas d'équivalent. JT était le meilleur avec le gang, c'est toujours vrai en solo. JT avec les Kool & the Gang ont rénové le funk avec des tubes que tout le monde connait. Cependant j'affirme et je signe que JT en solo c'est très fort aussi, c'est vrai dans 1 style différent.
j'ai pas de mots pour decrire ce que je recent en ecoutant ce son!! le son de kool and the gang avec la voix de JT TAYLOR voila ce que sa donne quelque chose d'unique de pur de magique pour moi c'est du genie! TONINGHT ThIS IS THE NIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!
Adoro!
