Jungle Fever - The Chakachas (1972)

The Chakachas were a Belgium-based group of Latin Soul studio musicians. Also known as Les Chakachas or Los Chakachas, they started out in the late 1950s. Although they issued numerous recordings, they are best remembered as a one-hit wonder for their hit disco single "Jungle Fever" from 1972, which sold over a million copies in the U.S. and reached #8. The song was also featured in the 1997 movie "Boogie Nights". This channel is dedicated to all the great 'old school' R&B music I grew up with, the stuff that originally made me tap my feet and want to be a DJ. Funk, soul, disco, R&B, dance, hip-hop, pop . . . 60s, 70s, 80s . . . whatever you call it, it's all 'Old School' and it's all here!

FYI, Disco was funk music played in discoteques, hence the name Disco. At that time, Gamble & Huff & Barry White began fusing funk music with orchestration, later to be bastardized by the majors by 1975 to create the watered down crap disco music in the mid to late 70's. So yes, this is a Disco song.
