(2 Customer Reviews)
KC & the Sunshine Band: Jerome Smith (guitar); Harry Wayne "K.C." Casey (keyboards); Robert Finch (bass guitar, drums, percussion); Fermin Goytisolo (percussion). The Miami disco band's second album is a collection of funky mid-1970s dance instrumentals, which includes versions of George McCrae's "Rock Your Baby" (originally penned by band leaders Harry Casey and Richard Finch) and their own "Sound Your Funky Horn," as well as the vintage Miami sound of "S.O.S." and the shimmering "Sunshine City." Many Americans think that 1975's KC & the Sunshine Band was the disco/funk/soul outfit's first album. After all, it was that self-titled release that boasted the hits "Get Down Tonight" and "That's The Way (I Like It)," both of which soared to number one on Billboard's R&B and pop singles charts and made Harry Wayne Casey, aka KC, a superstar in the United States. But, in fact, KC & the Sunshine Band was their third album. Before that, they provided two LPs that were better known in England than they were in the U.S.: 1974's Do It Good (their debut album) and 1975's instrumental The Sound of Sunshine. KC doesn't sing at all on this LP, which he produced and arranged with partner Richard Finch. But even without KC's distinctive vocals, his band is easily recognizable on exuberant offerings like "Sunshine City," "S.O.S.," and "Funky '75" (which is an instrumental version of the 1973 single "Sound Your Funky Horn"). Other noteworthy tracks include the single "Shotgun Shuffle" (which made it to number 25 on Billboard's R&B singles chart) and a remake of the George McCrae smash "Rock Your Baby" (which KC and Finch wrote for that one-hit wonder in 1974). The Sound of Sunshine isn't among KC & the Sunshine Band's essential releases, but it's a decent record that's worth hearing if you're a serious disco-funk collector. ~ Alex Henderson K C & The Sunshine Band Sound Of Sunshine Songs Sound Of Sunshine Music Review Purchase Sound Of Sunshine CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Alexis Korner Kornerstoned: Anthology 1958-1983 CD (2004) (Import) United Kingdom

Sound Of Sunshine
$11.79 Remastered & expanded 2005 reissue of the debut album for the Philadelphian quintet. Originally released in 1974. Blue Magic, arguably one of the finest Philly vocal groups comprised of Theodore ("Wizard") Mills, Vernon Sawyer, Wendell Sawyer, Keith Beaton, and Richard Pratt and utilised the talents of both the MFSB house band based at Sigma Sound Studios and the stable of Philly-based songwriters who were at the apex of their global run of chart smashes at the time of the album's release in 1974 with "Sideshow," a hit ballad that was as clever as it was melancholy. The rest of the album is also superb, and includes the snappy, proto-disco "Look Me Up," as well as dreamy, gossamer ballads like "Spell" and "What's Come Over ...
| | Ace Spectrum Inner Spectrum CD (2006) (Import) Remastered & Expanded; United Kingdom
Sound Of Sunshine
$11.79 In a perfect world, all of Blue Magic's '70s LPs would have been reissued on CD in the late '80s or '90s. But that didn't happen; when the 21st century arrived, most of the Philadelphia vocal group's '70s albums were out of print. However, various best-of packages were available on CD. The most comprehensive is The Best of Blue Magic: Soulful Spell, a superb 20-song collection that Rhino assembled in 1996. Less generous is Magic of the Blue: Greatest Hits; originally released on vinyl by Omni in 1986 and subsequently reissued on CD, Magic of the Blue: Greatest Hits only contains 12 songs. Most of the essential gems that are ...
