I think the band "Cameo" would be right up your alley... Dance Funk Icons!!! "Word Up!" is probably their biggest hit, but they have a ton of amazing songs to groove to! 🎶✨🎶✨🎶
They need some Morris Day and The Time too.
A vote for "She’s Strange" from me.
@@GenXDaddyO absolutely!! Jungle Love is my jam!! The Bird!! Color of Success by Morris is a lot of fun too. I think they'd enjoy The S.O.S. Band and Zapp & Roger!! 🕺🎶🕺🎶🕺
@@agresticumbra And I like it!
Don’t forget “Candy”. My 11 year old jams to that track!
History I found for you; *The Gap Band are a funk, soul and rhythm and blues group from Tulsa, Oklahoma. The band is fronted by the three Wilson brothers: Charlie, Robert, and Ronnie. The Wilson brothers are the sons of a Pentecostal minister and began their music careers singing in their father's church. The Wilson brothers first got together as a group in 1967 and initially called themselves the Greenwood Archer and Pine Street Band, named for North Tulsa's former African American business hub (once known as the Black Wall Street, destroyed in 1920) which ran along Greenwood Avenue bordered by Pine Street to the North and Archer Street to the South. The Gap Band started out performing in various venues all over their native Tulsa and recorded an unsuccessful debut album in 1974. The Gap Band hit their stride in the late 70's with such songs as "I'm in Love" and "Shake" (the latter was a Top five R&B radio hit). They scored a huge smash in 1979 with the groundbreaking single "I Don't Believe You Wanna Get Up and Dance (Oops Upside Your Head)." The Gap Band continued their winning streak into the 80's with such hit songs as "Steppin' Out," "Burn Rubber on Me (Why You Wanna Hurt Me)," "Humpin'," "Yearning for Your Love," "Party Train," "Early in the Morning," "I Found My Baby," "Outstanding," and the especially funky "You Dropped a Bomb on Me."*
Their BEST stuff is from the 80s.
Roh couldn't had said it better!👍
Thank you for posting the facts.
I didn’t realize they were around that long.
Oh good Lord THANK YOU for saying all that I knew Charlie was a Christian now I know he grew up one so happy to hear that so thank you for that info. :D
Now you have to hear "Party Train"! A Gap Band MUST!
The video for that one is fun too.
Or Early In the Morning!
@@seanbyrd9164 They've already reacted to Early In The Morning. Great song.
Absolutely!!!😁
You're gonna miss that train...
DON'T MISS THE PARTY TRAIN!!
Man we would straight up lose our shit when this played at the skating rink back in the day.
Love re-discovering these songs through your eyes! Keep it up.
And the pool hall.
Great tune for skating! Good times! 💜
Definitely a skating rink song.
Yeah, we would.
An absolute roller-skating jam! I had the 45 of this.
We used to call this song “the never ending song” at the clubs in the 80’s. They would play the remix that went on for about 20 minutes. We got so tired we had to walk of the dance floor!! 😂😂😂 A classic though! Love them! ❤️❤️
🤣Totally✔️
I can't tell you how many times my future hubby and I danced to these guys in the early '80s. We would close out Pogo's in Wichita every Monday (nickel pitcher night), Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights. Sigh..those were the days
Crazy how DJs will do that sometimes! I remember a wedding DJ playing the full extended dub mix of Soft Cell's "Tainted Love", cleared the floor before the full 9 minutes was up 😂😂😂
I'm new here so forgive me but why are you called rob squad?
Man, when they fired this one up EVERYONE hit the floor! 😂 Try Burn Rubber - it’s my favorite from them.
Yes please do Burn Rubber!!
I'm a Bomb Dropper it's because I like dropping bombs
I love my bom bom
Now maybe a few of the younger kids who know what we mean when we saying we Dropped a Bomb on you or we're going to drop some bombs or you know this or that what's got the bomb in there it was probably manufactured at the Gap Band hello brother alright alright now
Great times..
The GAP Band's "Early in the Morning" and "Start Me Up" by the Rolling Stones are my favorite wake up songs! Uncle Charlie Wilson is still going strong with that smooth, sexy voice!
I'm an amputee, right leg, since I was 15. I danced on crutches, and this was my JAM!! Couldn't keep off the dance floor.
One of the great songs.... Now, to continue the vibe, try
Cameo - Word Up
" Word. "
The one and only Charlie Wilson on lead vocals. One of the most influential voices in R&B.
They played this song at every football game as a warm up song and it’s really iconic in my memory. Great memories of this one
This falls into my “greatest roller skating music ever” category. It’s a favorite. I put this on repeat. 💜💜💜
100%!!! As soon as it starts, I’m transported to Skate-A-Long USA as a kid!
Yep! You are my people.
@@ericgerber9751 I was skating to it as a recent high school graduate, but yeah. 🤣
So true. And "Wipe Out"
👍😊
They were three brothers, Charlie, Ronnie, and Robert Wilson. They named themselves GAP after three streets in the Greenwood section of Tulsa, Greenwood, Archer, and Pine. They moved to LA and got a record deal.
Charlie is a bomb. He's a big name in R&B.
First name Charlie, last name Wilson! Haha
@@J.R.Steel85 Well we call him "Uncle Charlie" !
Great to see you enjoy these guys so much. Try "Yearning For Your Love" by them. And check out "Uncle Charlie", first name Charlie last name Wilson, "Blessed" and "There Goes My Baby" I think you'll love all those songs. Keep them coming, you two. Peace
My mom loved this song and loved dancing to it. She had both legs amputated in 2016 and only lived 3 more weeks after that. In my mind I'm transported back to the 1980's dancing with her to this song. It was one of life's greatest pleasures for her. It brought the memories flooding back and for that I thank you. Maybe react to Burn Rubber by the Gap Band next time? Love you guys. ❤❤
These guys walked into our rehearsal room back in the 80’s. They said we are rehearsing in the next room, and we’ve been listening to you through the wall, you guys sound incredible and we don’t even like hard rock, is it cool If we hang out for a couple songs? Of course we said “ He’ll yes “. Super nice guys. 👍
What an awesome story!!!!!!
Wow! They had some rock nuances in their sound, maybe thanks to you! 🤣
Great story! What city was this in?
@@jonathanlocke6404 Hey Jonathan, it was in L.A.
I think you are confusing your life with the "Walk This Way" video.
"Early In The Morning" 🔥🔥🔥🔥
"Oops! Upside Your Head";
"Outstanding";
..."Burn Rubber (Why You Wanna Hurt Me)";
"Beep-A-Freak"
...all GAP Band classics!
🤘🤘
I grew up with the GAP band on my life's soundtrack. The front man is Charlie Wilson. Unfortunately, his brothers are deceased. "Uncle Charlie" is still doing his thing. As a side note, I went to high school with his manager.
It was only a matter of time before your funk journey led you to this song! Believe it or not, this band put out TWENTY albums between 1967 and 2010, and this is arguably their most famous song. You also have to check out "Outstanding", "Party Train", and "Burn Rubber On Me". This song's use of the synthesizer (doing the whistle and bomb sounds) was one of the most unique sound effects at the time to be incorporated into a song. And GAP stands for Greenwood Archer Pine. They consisted of three brothers - Charlie (lead singer), Ronnie, and Robert Wilson. Only Charlie is still around, but he's still going. In fact, he joined Bruno Mars in 2018 on Bruno's 24K Magic tour!
Party Train was always one of my faves to dance to!👍❤
Charlie Wilson is currently touring with new edition and Jodeci.
I drop bombs for a Livin it's what I do I'm a Bomb Dropper
IIRC this is the second song I bought from the iTunes Music Store. Everyone at work wanted a copy, even the straight-laced military Morman guy. He said that he and his wife couldn’t stop dancing to this for three days.
I used to use my brother’s record player, his giant headphones, and listen to the Gap Band and Earth, Wind & Fire. I’d sit in a big chair and listen with my eyes closed. Fond memory. Did it over and over. Loved it.
The Gap Band outstanding. Great song
Yes! Burn Rubber (On Me), Outstanding, Humpin and Oops Upside Your Head were the all time jams!
Dude this was always a great song at the skating rink to Skate to.😁😁🤘🤘
Good times 🛼
This is a JAM! 🛼🛼🛼
Loved, loved, loved, the Gap Band. So much fun in their live performances. Got everyone out of their seats. I loved dancing to this at high school dances . You couldn't sit during their songs. Canadian Grandma Lori. C.
I love this song it was a blast to dance to this song in the club
One of my top 2 fave songs of the 80s, and I'm a hair metal rock girl. Can't sit still for sure. I will listen to it everytime it comes on on the radio. My other top song that I can't turn off if it comes on is "One Thing Leads to Another" by The Fixx. They had a couple hits, from the early/mid 80s British invasion. Think Duran Duran.
My favorite from the Fixx was Red Skies At Night.
I love both of those songs Theresa. They are both still on my morning workout playlist.
Great reaction guys! Lead singer Charlie Wilson is still performing and recording. Lately he has collaborated with Bruno Mars. In 2020 he released a song called "Forever Valentine". Great song. In the mid 2000's he had a hit with " Charlie, last name Wilson". He's an absolute legend and still going strong. Tulsa's Own!
Y’all need to check out the official video for the GAP Band’s “Party Train”. Pure 80’s joy.
This is one of those songs they played at the club for YEARS!! Another one, close to last call, was always Clarence Carter's "Strokin" - which is a lot of fun.
Gap Band classics to explore are Outstanding - and Yearning for your love , two of Uncle Charlies best
The Gap Band - yearning for your love .awesome
GAP BAND
"PARTY TRAIN"
ANOTHER GREAT SONG
This is one of "those" songs that when you are driving down the highway by yourself, you roll down the windows (summer time of course), turn up the volume and rock out. Baby Likes To Rock It (Like A Boogie Woogie Choo Choo Train) by The Tractors is a another good one to rock out to while driving down the highway.
During the late 1970s they really had it great band that were part of the disco music and they were having concerts all over the USA they came to San Antonio Texas and I had to go see them. Three great brothers all sinc all I can say thanks Jay And Amber more like these songs
The names of the streets was Greenwood, Archer and Pine. Also, the title of this song is a reference to the bomb that was dropped on the Tulsa in the Black Wall Street massacre. It is the only time in American history that America dropped a bomb on its own citizens on its own land.
thank you for the information, so terrible that our own gov would do this to us, but thank God that bands like GAP turned the negative around.
The Wilson brothers were hired as a backup band by none other than Oklahoma's own Leon Russell who put them on the map so to speak. Great sound and a great band.
Danced to this song many times. Such a cool beat and hook.
i never knew what Gap in Gap Band was named for. been listening to them for over 25-30 years.
Charlie Wilson, the lead singer, has gone on to have an amazing R&B career and he's one of my favorite vocalists ever.
I haven't even watched your reaction yet but I know you like it. This song plus Burn Rubber On Me and Party Train and this is what I was jamming to in college. Such good memories.
oh man, this song came on back in the day...everybody moved!! Probably my personal favorite from the decade. Great reaction!
This song brings back so many memories, good and bad, for me. Thanks for reacting to it!
OMG………..love, love, LOVE this song from WAY back when!!!!!
One of OUR 👏👏👍🇺🇸
Best Dance Songs Ever
"The Other Wilson brothers" of Music
Charlie, Ronnie & Robert are the members of The GAP Band.
That is "uncle Charlie" on the lead vocal.
[In case you don't know (which, apparently, you do not!): The Beach Boys were, also, founded by a set of Wilson brothers (to my experience: the most famous ones in music!): Brian [vocals, bass, piano, main composer & arranger], Dennis [drums and vocals -unfairly dismissed & underrated!] and Carl [guitars & vocals]
as was the Brooklyn band:
MANDRILL!
(Whom too few people remember or know about!
DEEP, progressive '70s FUNK!🤘🤘🔥).
...so: If you are named "Wilson" and have at least 2 brothers?? ...time to start a band, I guess !!!! (🤣😂😂👍🤪) and "follow in the footsteps!"
🤘🤘
This takes me back to my skating rink days in the 80's.
one of those songs that was constantly played in the clubs forty years ago🎉🎉🎉🎉
I so love this song! I remember attending a class reunion with a date. We danced to this song. We later got married and are still happily married today.
Gap band… One of the better bands of their time, great concert, even better dance music, even better memories
Gap band is one of my absolute favorites! My brother and I both have white hair now but if we’re riding together we’re still blasting their music or Isley Brothers. We get some strange looks but we don’t care!😂
I think they got started at 1976, but they were least three consecutive albums in 1979, Gap Band I, Gap Band II, Gap Band III. They had so much material, that they couldn’t fit it all in one album so they made three. Gap Band IV in 1982 with check number one “Early In The Morning”with the rooster crowing.
This song was played at every single dance party I was ever at!
It was THE SONG to dance Tobin the 80’s
It makes me smile to see so many others on here comment about hearing this song at the skating rink. It was definitely played at the one I skated at every weekend during the 80's. Great "gotta move" song.
Burn Rubber On Me
Party Train
Outstanding
Humpin'
GAP Band was the shit back in the 80s. They were heard everywhere. So glad you guys circled back around to do more, but don't stop there. Hit the list above...
I love 'OUTSTANDING'! Another great one, altho there are many!!!
Yeah, I definitely remember this band. Uncle Charlie and his Brothers. When their songs came on, the dance floors were loaded. 2 more of their songs...Burn Rubber and Party Train. Classics!!
Next one, Outstanding! Great Gap Band song
Finally! Was hoping for more Gap Band! Love it! Hey Amber, I think what you heard was “corrosion” not “erosion”😊
I was always on the dance floor when this song hit! “Early In the Morning” and “Humpin’” is great also.
“Freakazoid” by Midnight Star is fun, too.
Love Midnight Star i requested No Parking on the dancefloor.
@@fhat6924 that’s a great one too!
Lol....Freakazoid!! Loved that song too! Dancing at the bar, in my twenties. I'm an 80's child. So many Good songs back then.....the 60's and 70's were my parents and older brothers music. I like that stuff too. But, I graduated in 1985, so anything in the 80's and early 90's. 😁👍
I'm back in the 80's at the skating rink. This song played and everyone rolled to the rink.
The Gap Band was an American R&B and funk band that rose to fame during the 1970s and 1980s. The band consisted of three brothers: Charlie, Ronnie, and Robert Wilson, along with other members; it was named after streets in the historic Greenwood neighborhood in the brothers' hometown of Tulsa, Oklahoma. Wikipedia
Hey guys I really love your channel keep up the good work wish you'd play more SRV I really dig it love you guys a bunch I want all your channels thanks again Bobby
Yearning for your Love is another great song by The Gap band more of a slow paced song. Also the lead singer Charlie Wilson had some new music in the early 2000s that is worth a listen Charlie last name Wilson and magic are two of the more popular songs from that album that I can remember
Oh how I LOVE so much. This was my favorite song song from the GAP BAND!
Yarbrough and peoples - Don’t stop the music! A must listen 🎧
I had a neighbor lady, and when this song was playing, loud, you knew her party was officially lit.
One of my Favorite Song and Video. I was at a Wedding and requested this Song and it went Over So Awesome 👌 👏 👍
Still listening to this track when I train in the gym.........takes me back to when I was 13 years old when this track came out. From New Zealand
Parliament, Zap and Roger! Omg.. thebestdance music!!
Yes finally...now you're doing the right song. This was the ultimate dance song we played at all our teen parties. So good and so many memories..Now you have to really do it up right and do JUNGLE LOVE by Morris Day and the Time....and NO PARKING ON THE DANCEFLOOR by Midnight Star.
GAP = Greenwood, Archer & Pine ( Black Wall Street ) downtown Tulsa. Booker T grads! As am I ( class of 1985 ). These guys graduated about 10 years earlier ( or more ).
It came out when I was either in my upper teens or early twenties and I was going out dancing, One of my all time favorites
This was a huge hit in the Disco Era. A staple when I Lived in the clubs in my 20s. I am 63.
OMG...the memories!!! I would love to know the total number of hours I danced in high heels, fishnet stockings and my Grandfather's dress shirt; belted, sleeves rolled up and collar turned up! Up on the speakers at the Limelight in ATL dancing the night away to THIS song. Cannons spewing 🎊. The absolute 💯 best of times. Thanks for making me think about my younger self. Haven't seen her in 30ish years. I still love her though! Another along the same line Strokin'by Clarence Carter. We all loved to hear that one come on as well!
I can't tell you how many times I danced to this song in the 80s.
Greenwood, Archer and Pine streets in Tulsa, OK Located on the north side. I remember they were discovered by another local, Leon Russell. They were all Tulsa friends / brothers of each other. Wilson and Irma Wilson, and brother to Charlie and Ronnie Wilson. All three siblings were raised in Tulsa. As a boy, Robert got his musical start playing drums, then guitar, then bass, in local churches. In 1973,
'Outstanding' is another great hit of many.
I had completely forgotten this video...not the song...never!!!
The GAP band is from Tulsa, OK. The letters come from the names of the streets from the streets they grew up on: Greenwood, Archer and Pine. If those names sound familiar, it's because it's from the historic Black Wall Street district destroyed in the Tulsa Race Riot of 1921.
Ok so fun story.
I moved to Okmulgee, OK from California when I was 18 and I made my first best friend when I started working at McDonald’s.
Anyway, one day we were driving around in my car and the CD I had playin was Gap Band…. We grew up POOR, and many times we didn’t have a TV or cable. But we always had music. And my mom has AMAZING taste in artists and songs. And because of this I tend to only listen to old school music, Gap Band being one of my favorites since I was 5. So my mom actually got me that CD for a bday present.
So, that day with my friend in the car and this very song playing.. she looks at me and smiles and asks “you like this band?” And ofc I said no, I LOVE this band.
Then she says “I’m related to them. They’re my mommas cousins”……. I was like “yea… OK sure” 😂
So she has me talk to her mom and sure enough, they are most def fam.
A few years later I got to meet Charlie. It was awesome and I was absolutely star struck and awkward cuz I’ve never met anyone famous let alone a member of a band I loved since the age of 5. He was very kind and down to earth and gracious. Def one of those memories/stories I’ll always keep with me.
I live in Tulsa, OK now and EVERYTIME i see or drive on Archer, Pine or Greenwood I not only tell whoever is with me about the Gap Band but also this story.
OMG 8:00 in the morning still in pj second coffee only i dance so much on that song. Now goose bump everywhere and guess what......... dancing in my livinroom blasting the music. Thank you so much for this i needed this . xx
Now I want y'all to visualize a sixty-year-old lady rocking to this song cuz that was my generation
I'm right there with you. Takes me back to my clubbing days in the 80's. This was one of my favorites.
Oh this was Happy Hour at the classy hotel music. Oh yes.
Great music to dance to, had a blast dancing to it in college, at home, anytime!!!!
When this comes on the radio the volume goes up.
I never knew Gap Band was from Oklahoma. So good to know! This song was a straight banger and was played at all the dance clubs in the 80s. It was one that always got everyone out on the dance floor!
It was all bout the dance floor in the 80s. This definitely got everyone up shaking
you will never run out of music to react to... An endless pit of awesome!!
Oh we had such great music in the day. This song is still in my playlist.
This was the roller skating youth soundtrack of my life!!!
I was five years old when that song and album came out from that band.
Now you are talking!! FUNK, BABY!!! Now give us some butt-kicking funk with "Slippery When Wet" by the Commodores.
Classic funk music right there. Omg. Love The Gap Band. 💘💘
Love when they play this at a wedding! :)
I remember the dance floor would quickly fill up when this song played at the dance clubs back in the day!
These guys played at my Grad Night in Florida in 1984 at Disney World along with Weird Al and Night Ranger. They were sooooo cool!
I had a old school stereo when this song came out.with the station indicator that lit up but had a cockroach living inside I thought it was dead until this song came on the radio and as the whistling sound of the bomb dropping came its antenna would move. Any other song zero reaction. Damn Biloxi Mississippi roaches. Lol
One of my all time favorite dance songs!!
Their biggest hit and their best.
"PARTY TRAIN" next guys! love the reaction as always. ; )
One of my favorite club songs!!!! Gets the bootie movin!!!!!!!
