  • Chaka and Rufus, Rufus and Chaka...right from the get go of "Tell Me Something Good" I was a fan...the funk! the soul! that voice! The seventies were better because of them...and they closed the 70's with this monster....a chunky, funky jazz funk pop concoction that proved irresistible, topping the R&B chart at the end of 1979 for three weeks and set up producer Quincy Jones the opportunity to succeed himself at #1 with Michael Jackson's "Rock With You" for another six weeks into 1980. It did not do as well on the pop charts though, peaking at #30. Who cares! The extended version on the 12 still was not long enough for me...

      +Monica Whitehead, I know what you mean, music and movies have had a huge impact on my life, so when I came across the very brilliant DiscoCat and his epic remixes, I definitely felt that he's got a wonderful grasp on music. I love the way he builds upon the original version without having to sacrifice the original beats, that is why he's a genius and why I am a huge fan of his, I do hope he keeps them coming, because I love what he does...

    OMG..the 70s music ruled and it still does to this day!!! All my straight friends wanted to go to the Disco clubs to pick up girls, but according to them, "real men don't dance" LOL. But not me. I had the music bug since I was 5 years old when my dad built his own "Hi-fi" system. So I joined my friends on their "pick-up" missions at the discos, me wearing the thick platform shoes you needed a ladder to step into, the silk quiana shirts, bell bottoms, and huge curly afro, and I literally had a line of girls waiting for their turn to dance with me! A (not openly at the time) gay man enjoying the moment, the music, the spinning mirrored ball, all the while my friends sitting at the table, moping, frowning and VERY unsuccessful in their "pick-up" mission to get the girls...how ironic, but nonetheless the perfect night out on the town dancing to the most beautiful music in the world.. with BEAUTIFUL women!! And I freakin LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF IT!!!
