Monday Music "I'M Your Boogie Man" By KC and the Sunshine Band

The Bugaloo meme is Back!!! after being rested it is back in circulation!

 I am continuing my string of "bugaloo" songs.  This discussion was started in the "Monster Hunter Nation, Hunters Unite", back in November of 2019? it is a Facebook group with enthusiast of the ILOH "International Lord of Hate" A.K.A Larry Correia.  We were talking about what song would we use if we looked out of our window or glanced at our security camera and saw this.....

One of the alphabet bois lining up to take down your house...What would be your "Valhalla" song and you would set it up to play as you load up magazines set up the Tannerite Rover, turn on the water irrigation system and fill it with gasoline instead of water and prepare yourself.

 I figured it would scar the alphabet boys if they come busting in and hearing a song about people having a good time and standing up for themselves and having Disco playing Loud will scar the Alphabet Boi's as they force the stack through the door.

I decided to go back to the "Disco" era with a band that did well during this time. They are still around touring today as the interest in Disco has picked up.  I admit it, I listen to disco, rock, pop, heavy metal, alternative, old school rap and other genre's.  The only music I have a problem with is gansta rap.  I have a hard time listening to that..because of the language, I do use foul words, but some words I will not use and those words are frequently thrown around in a gansta rap song.  SOme of the stuff I do like, like Coolio and Eminem and LLCoolJ, beastie boys among others.   But I digress.   I heard about KC and the sunshine band while I was in Germany and listened to AFN out of Frankfurt and they played all the superbands and the onset of Disco.   Musically pretty exciting, the rest of the decade sucked pond water thanks to Jimmy"the Djimmi" Carter.  KC had quite a flavor of music and it was music that I could dance to because it had a good beat and they pulled in a lot of horns on this song.    I actually have this album in vinyl in my stereo cabinet.




"I'm Your Boogie Man" is a song originally performed by KC and the Sunshine Band from their 1976 album Part 3
Richard Finch said that the song was written about a DJ at a Miami, Florida radio station called Robert W. Walker, who was the first to give their hit single "Get Down Tonight" airplay. In 1977 the song reached the #1 position on the Billboard Hot 100 and #3 R&B Singles chart. The song was also an international chart hit, reaching #1 in Canada and charting in Australia (#38), Belgium (#11), the Netherlands (#6), New Zealand (#12), and the UK (#41).
The song was sampled in at least one preview for all five of the Scary Movie films, as well as in the 2005 film Roll Bounce, the 2007 film Superbad and comic-to-film-adaptation Watchmen. It was also the opening song for the 1995 film The Last Supper.
     KC and the Sunshine Band is an American musical group. Founded in 1973 in Miami, Florida, their style has included funk, R&B, and disco. Their most well known songs include the disco hits "That's the Way (I Like It)", "(Shake, Shake, Shake) Shake Your Booty", "I'm Your Boogie Man", "Keep It Comin' Love", "Get Down Tonight", "Give It Up", and "Please Don't Go". They took their name from lead vocalist Harry Wayne Casey's last name ("KC") and the "Sunshine Band" from KC's home state of Florida ('The Sunshine State').

  2. My track will be AC/DC singing "Shoot To Thrll", played at 110. The track would end with the clip of Paul Gleason playing LAPD Deputy Chief Dwayne T. Robinson saying, "We're gonna need some more FBI guys, I guess..."

      I had done that one back in July I believe, or I would have prepped it this weekend.
