    Kool and the Gang ist für mich eine Band, die nicht nur in den letzten Jahren gute Songs gemacht hat, nein, sondern auch schon in den 60er Jahren brillanten sond musiziert hat. Und ich wünsche der Band, auch wenn mal Bandmitglieder ausfallen, ein weiteres Fortbestehen. Weil ihre Musik ist einfach toll und unverwechselbar. Regina aus Deutschland , vielen Dank, für eure tolle Musik

My brother's and I used to have such a good time immitating this group, , zapp, dazz band, Confunkshun, cameo, earth wind and fire, LTD, the barkays, the commodores, ,brick, chic, the list goes on, Rufus, the brothers Johnson, Graham central station . Quincy Jones aww bruh, average white band. I can go all night 😎

    Use to play this with my band from Philly when i was in college. We always had a helluva good time and never failed to move the crowd. Kool and the Gang was the preeminent instrumental funk band of the late 60's, early 70's and this live version is killer. I said whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa , whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa yeah!

      JOHN Luise Please learn how to use your caps lock key. It simply hurts to read you. Having to type a one-hour monologue retranscription of Christopher Walken with all the stupid punctuation would be more pleasant than to read your comment again.

    Now this is the Kool and the Gang I like. Doing some old school funk. That pop music they do, they can have it. But these guys are very excellent musicians. Very talented kats. And they are well trained in Bebop Jazz. You all don't know that side of there musical talent. They are really jazz musicians. Basskat Detroit MI.

    FUNKY STUFF prvý TOP 10 hit skupiny KOOL AND GANG, ktorý bol v R and B rebríčku 19 týždňov od 11. augusta 1973 a obsadil 5.m. V rebríčku Billboardu skončil na 29.m. Skladba pochádzala z albumu WILD AND PEACEFUL, ktorý bol v rebríčku Billboardu 60 týždňov od 13. oktobra 1973 a skončil na 33.m. a ako prvý album skupiny získal od RIAA zlatú platňu.Skupinu vytvoril v roku 1964 v Jersey City Robert Bell ako jazzové kombo pod názvom The Jazziacs. V zostave boli Ronals Bell saxofon, George Brown bicie, Robert Mickens trubka, Dennis Thomas saxofon Woody Sparrow gitara a Rick Westfield klavesy.V roku 1967 Sparrowa nahradil Claydes Smith a po zistení, že jazzom sa neuživia sa skupina preorientovala na R and B a vystupovala pod názvom The Soul Music Review.V roku 1968 vystupovali pod názvom New Dimensions potom New Flames a napokon Kool And The Flames a aby si ich nezamieňali so skupinou Jamesa Browna Famous Flames zmenili názov na Kool and The Gang podľa prezývky Roberta Bella. Po uzatvorení zmluvy s De-Lite Records v roku 1970 zaznamenali pozornosť inštrumentálnymi skladbami Kool And The Gang a The Gang´s Back. Pieseň Funky Stuff sa stala prvou skladbou, ktorá znamenala pre skupinu komerčný úspech. Žial už traja členovia skupiny nie sú medzi živými a to Rick Westfield, Robert Mickens a Claydes Smith.
