Titled after the wildly popular song from THE GAP BAND in 1979, this show features the Soulful FUNK sound of many American artists that slowly began to dominate much of the discotheque industry in the United States. Most often associated with the early 1980's, this FUNK has all of the sophistication of AMERICAN DISCO. The influence of such artists is severely underestimated.
