tonight ~ KOOL & THE GANG

[tjhoward789]

Two items of note in this song. First, @ 2:11, notice how some of the Gang sing 'Tonight you'll finally see the light' in a high register, others sing 'Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight' in a low reister, and JT doing his thing in the foreground. Spellbinding! Second, immediately after this masterpiece, guitarist Claydes Charles Smith @ 2:43 goes into a blistering guitar attack that I rank right up there with other guitar greats. So underrated. RIP Claydes.

[Tsamiya1]

Love it too, but desperately searching for ' home is where the heart is by kool and the gang'. It used to be on youtube, but seems to have been removed. Can anyone help me? 

[LaToyaVNikki]

Oh goodness! I am only fourteen and I fell in love with MJ then Prince and now I only listen to this crazy stuff! I think this is real, no computer electronically controled or edited vocals!

[Kimmica20]

@LaToyaVNikki Yes! Glad that you are enjoying real music my friend.  Keep it up. ; )

omg, i had no idea K&TG sang this! man, I am embarrassed, because I am a 70s child and now hearing it again decades later, it's obviously JT Taylor singing lead! What rock was I under! loool

Song reminds me of Friday and Saturday nights getting ready to go out on the town.
