HAMILTON BOHANNON: DANCE YOUR ASS OFF (1976 vynil 45° -7'')

HAMILTON BOHANNON: Dance Your Ass Off - vynil 45° 1976

Hamilton Bohannon (born Hamilton Frederick Bohannon, March 7, 1942, Newnan, Georgia) is an American percussionist, band leader and record producer, who was one of the leading figures in 1970s disco music.
Every single track on this is an absolute funk-fueled stripped-down disco stomper with no gimmicks, cheese or letdowns. Hamilton Bohannon took the raw funk of James Brown and fused it with the disco beats of the mid-70's philadelphia producers, but left out the embellishments of philly disco and concentrated on straight up dancefloor funk attitude with sparse, audience-prodding vocals. Some samples of these tracks turn up on the excellent Bohannon-centric "Tribute" album by sample-jackers Smith N Hack

@VirgilB01: ...not to mention his own Phase II label (independent and Compleat/PolyGram distribution) and MCA.

[dredcon]

this was Bohannon's most complete song to me. wow' thanks for the post

[VirgilB01]

@rondmc44 - No, but he was a good enought talent. Apple wasn't a soul label. His label was either Brunswick or it subsiduary Dakar Records. Then later to Polygram/Mercury.
