Yeah I got one more for ya... because I can't let this thread finish on Maxi Priest (MOR reggae), The Whispers (lame end of disco) and Billy Ocean's horrible mega-hit (WTF??). So.... I bought this when it came out in 1986.... no longer own the vinyl but still like the beat/samples a lot....
can't believe it: no sugarhill gang in this thread? "I got a Lincoln Continental and a sunroof Cadillac." the long version:
I was thinking about this song today, okay: it's not hip hop, but it sure is fine disco Shalamar The Second Time Around
I never got into music like that, but if you break it down, each member is quite talented, even tho I don’t care much for music like that. My stepdaughter and her husband had a local band play at a birthday party at their house some years back, it was a punk/grunge band I guess, I was fascinated by the drummer, the speed and coordination he had to play, it was amazing. Then one of us “older folks” asked if they could play a traditional country Christmas song, they did! A musician is a musician!!
I'd never looked @ this thread before & was thinking the same thing. Was going to post this if nobody else had.
