You won't me to list others.. I shalll. KC ain't no Funk band... a song here or there doesn't make you a funk band... let's get a grip my brother.

I'm just having fun with you. You very well could be right. I just like KC. My uncle turned me

on to his music. I just think numbers like I Get Lifted and Do You Wanna Go Party are

sweaty funky jams.

If sly & the family stone is considered to be a 'FUNK' band..

KC should be too!

It brought back such good memories that I bought me some tickets to a show.

I saw them in concert,back in 1993

it was Ok,

Not 'Deep' enough for me!

Some crazy sh** was going down with the bass player!

it was barely mentioned.

It does seem like they skipped over some things.For example,in 1980,KC had a sizable hit with Teri Desario,"Yes,I'm Ready" (a remake of the Barbara Lewis classic) and it wasn't even mentioned.And in 1983,his song "Give It Up" became a surprise hit after Epic refused to release it and KC released it independently...seems like they could have discussed that a little more.

I wasn't too bothered...they only had an hour.

that's true....everything can't be covered in one hour.

Unless i missed it during my brief dose I don't recall them mentioning Do You Wanna Go Party.

It's interesting that,at the height of their popularity,they released an album (Who Do Ya Love,from 1978) that was only moderately successful.This album should have been HUGE.Not sure what happened here.

I always thought they were.

EXCELLENT Episode!!!!!! Been a KC Fan from Day one!!!! And I always thought of them more as a Funk Band than Disco Group!!!! The PERFECT example is "I Get Lifted", Ain't NOTHIN' Disco about that Song!!!!

I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed that glaring omission during the ep.

btw,KC and the Sunshine Band just released a Christmas CD!

^^I just listened to the sound samples on iTunes.I wasn't too impressed,but if they had done a Christmas album during their heyday,it would have been fantastic! Really funky.
