I love the hell out of this cut.This reminds me of the major disco days,that I remember so well.I was only 11 years old when this cut came out but I remember it,my parents went and bought the 45. Then a few years later I went and got the album. They used to play this cut,when they were showing resutls and plays from some of the football games on the news,back in 79 and 80. This is a great song. Sarcastically,it hits home with me also because,I'm a giant being 6 foot 3 inches HA HA.FEE FIE FO FUM

I was attending P.S. 156 in The Bronx near Yankee Stadium when my moms brought this joint on 45 after hearing it on WBLS(107.5 FM). I'd like to give you my thanks for posting it.

1978 during the Fall listening to KSFX (San Francisco) while waiting to hear "Hey Mr. DJ (You Know How To Make Me Dance)" my favorite song of that time. Never knew who did this song. TGFYouTube and the Internet.

[alexkalinovskiy]

This track is opening 54;) Best song!

[southerngeneral]

Hi all...I used to play this song ,from the late 70's, when I was a DJ at Pierce Street Annex in Anchorage, Alaska. I played it a bunch!! Go for it!!!

[daveasan]

I used to mix it and this one got everbody off the dance floor,,, even the ugly ladys and the ugly dudes... Shake your grove thing,,oh yeaaaaaa,,hi,hi

[NEXPAR]

@daveasan So you used this song to clear the floor? It seems more like it would have packed it. What club did you play at? Not that it matters, I was getting ready to go into the 8th grade when this was out. Sure would have loved to have gone to The Garage or 54. They were gone by the time I could have.

[libiggz]

WOOOOOOO Oh man you fine people have no idea whats its like hearing this for the first time in 30 years OMG thanx

[uzipolo]

[oliversimondeki]

Could you believe I am looking for this song over 20 years. Today I remembered of the name of the group (cj & Co) and not sj & Co as I was thinking all these 20 years. Thanks

[kell7wlt]

It happens and so i just type any thing until i find the tune!

[bugsyopp]

WOW! i was just going through my old

45" records and this was in it. I couldnt remember the song until I found it here. I must ahve been 8 when this came out! Thanks for posting!

[ladeshia63]

I was so young when this record came out and I am still amazed! It reminds me of the NY HUSTLE! I will never forget the clubs the fun the life and clothes of those days. This is it!

[racdad]

This brings back memories of Giraffe, Reflections, Casino 14, Ones all in the City (NYC that is). This song and the Ritchie Family, The Mexican, Donna of course, George Benson's Breezin'. Thanks for posting.

[tsntana]

Theme song from "The Real Bruce Lee".

[tonyvalente]

classic kung fu movie music

[catania61]

I love this song !

[miknice59]

Lucky to be a part of this era

slamming bass line

[1976j10]

There's an 8-track tape called "Disco Dynamite" and this song is on it

[TebooTedMarshall]

IMO one of the coolest songs in all of 1977.

[peddie54]

This was the first track they ever played in Studio 54 apparently!

[Toracube]

The first record I ever brought!! Played it to death!

[thehoopatribe]

Complex and multi-layered. Much like modern trance.

And it sounds like a 70's film score.

It could be included in a movie that takes place in the 70's, but most likely, a modern band will redo it, adding their current musical interpretation of 70's music, unlike actual 70's music.

[cgoldsmith]

OHHH fond mems of songs from my childhood. I wish I were old enough to go to the disco then.

[latinguy67]

I was born in 1967. I was 11-12 yrs old when Disco was riding high. I used to watch all the disco dance shows, listened to Casey Kasem religiously and bought records every Sat with my $3 allowance. I used to dream about going to the discos. I had to settle for the roller rink. Luckily the gay bars here where I live brought back disco in 89-92 when I was still young enough 2 act like it was 1979 & be a big ol' disco queen. Love live disco!!!!

[eyConentertainment]

This was my jam back in the NYC days....when cats were saying 'Cheeba Cheeba y'all" Very Nice!

[daveasan]

I thought it was great thumping disco music with the watts cranked up when i first heard it at dances (highschool) in 1977,, its still thumps, put your headphones on.... Iam not pro disco but check out that bass.

[daveasan]

You got to make a stand against the devils gun..... dance,dance

[GiselaNYC1]

I am going to put on my marshmellow shoes and get my groove on...love this jam...all my peeps come and join me...LOL

[GiselaNYC1]

this was my jam when I was a kid...I still have the album in mama's house. Thank u so much for posting.

[DISCOVEGASGUY]

Incredible, haunting and enticing rhythms and vocals on this one. Clever lyrics made this song enjoyable to listen and dance to. The piano and drums weave thru the vocals and urge you to figure out whats really happening in this song. Totally brilliant !!

[isabeau2]

nice to hear it again

[cuddy62dj]

Che musica ragazzi...vaaaaai...

[mayena]

I always thought is sounded like a theme track to a major motion picture release, thats how dramatic it is.

[crouchhill]

If I remember rightly this is a Dennis Coffey production.

[candt4lyfe]

cool song for locking

[m2worldly]

My hippie, loser roomate in college thought I was goner for liking this song. I told him CJ and Co rocks and disco rules! Thanks for posting this song, man. I'm back in the 70s again when booze was cheap and the women easy.

[Melegorm]

This is probably my luckiest find on YouTube -I haven't heard this song since 1978 or '79. Tremendous - thanks for posting!

[outdaboxtv]

The cover was fire!

[beachcity83]

First song played at the opening night of the Studio 54 in 1977, New-York

[atomiciii]

I had this 8 track in 1977, one of the greatest disco dance songs ever. There was another song on the 8 track, Body Contact Contract, that was also great. Wow this song puts me back in Big Daddy's on Okeechobee Road in W. Palm Beach, 1977.

[andresviveros]

Best song for locking

[FRESHNC]

very nice i know that song from a bruce lee copy film it was the soundtrack.i was a little kid at the beginning of the 80`s

DOPE FUNKY SHIIIT!

[djamesk666]

DEVIL'S GUN RULES!!! Who ever posted this song I raise my chalise too!!!! I remember this song when I was a 15 year old kid just beginning to dig the disco scene. David

[StainlessSteel58]

Back in the day there was a club in Boston called Lucifers. For a while the front doors from the street to the doors to the club used to play this in that walkway. And the walkway looked like you were in the barrel of a gun.

[ogam5]

Still one of the best, most musically realized disco numbers ever recorded.....found it on Project Playlist as a Dennis Coffey project; can anybody corroborate this? Thanks

[smrra]

Hell yeah!! Hustle your ass off!! Thanks for the post.

[frenaugo]

Brings back really good memories

With out a doubt, this is one of the all time favorites. It was Hot then and it still is now....

[Britnney1021]

True classic..Never played enough..

[fladavem]

Great blast from the past, I remember buying this record.

[3811iberis]

Bout' time someone posted this masterpiece from 1977, this track is from over three decades ago, and it still sounds as fresh today as it did then, high end music, no doubt about it!!

[discophletrocadero]

Definitely high end music !!

[DiscoCat78]

What an dramatic disco song! l loved this one the minute I heard it, great quality sound, I don't ever remember hearing the congas before...as important as Disco Inferno I think...

[LASongwriter]

One of the best; all-time classic! Thanks for posting!

[barriobajaj]

A true disco classic that hasn't been played to death. Thank You!
