Kool & The Gang - Funky Stuff & Jungle Boogie

The original lineup from June 1st, 1974.

I had a party, wanted it to be the talk of the town, well it was. My stereo was connected to a amplifier, Kool n the Gang was blasting shaking the walls, whistles blowing and then a Poppin sound replaced Kool the Gang, the Amp speaker busted, and we continued to dance to music we could hardly hear. Nothing can replace the fun we had back in the

THIS IS THE FOR REAL KOOL & THE GANG - and the dance here with our arms flailing... everyone is dancing on the one...

The irony. Can't get enough funky stuff, all the while MAKING that funky stuff! Back when people used to actually play instruments to make music. This is the good stuff.

This song is so ill and funky, the Soul Train dancers are moving as if they are being shock with electric, all over their bodies. Yes, their music in those days was funky, jazzy with accents on instrumentals, improvisation with the whole band being lead and resting on Kools pulsating bass line. Summer Madness and Open Sesame are classics to this day. I personally don't think they sold out as someone said in their comments earlier. The times changed, and the music changed. The clothes we wore in the 70's, were out of style in the 80's. And even though their music may have changed, one thing remain constant and consistent; Kools funky bass line kept us dancing throughout the 80's. People wanted to dance, so they made music we could dance to, while keeping it tight with a soulful lead singer and rhythms, melodies and ballads that's better than 99% of the crap that's playing on the radio today.

Had to watch this twice because I just cant get enough of that funky stuff

[jonsilence]

Damn straight! I saw the "oldschool" Kool & the Gang at Disneyland during this period and they were MINDBLOWING. Incredible rhythm section and overall a very sophisticated fusion of funk, rock, and jazz. When they took a sharp left turn into commercialism with "Celebration" the 'hood party was over. But God bless 'em, they paid their dues and it was time to make some big green.

[stopiwantoff]

Is that the coolest guitar player in the world!! 💘 him & his coolness!!

[edwardayala]

Can never get enough of that Funky stuff 🎱😎 EVEN AFTER ALL THESE YEARS 🤣
