YES i got into this track about 4 months ago , never heard it before in my life .. i been blasting this tracks … makes me feel so good . I’m a white Australian chick , I dunno anyone else who digs this stuff so hard !! .. and I mean hard ! ❤ I own two of there records now
The Brothers Johnson, Parliament, The Meters, Earth, Wind and Fire among many others on LP Vinyls were always on the play list in Aotearoa( NZ) back in the day Good times.
I can’t tell you how many me and my sisters and whole family have danced to this song, if you put it on right now people will dance to it, even my Gen Z kids
3:25 "Off the wall". The musicians playing the Stomp! song are also playing on this album, almost exactly at the same period. Plus Quincy producing both: no wonder it sounded familiar ;-)
Those were the days man. I was 15 and having a blast! What the guy was doing was a pretty popular group dance in clubs. This is the first of your videos I think I've seen, enjoyed it much. Cheers from just down the road in Forest Hill!
I loved the Brothers Johnson. I really appreciate what you had to say about the 70s generation. Have you covered “With You I’m Born Again” by Billy Preston and Sayreeta?? This is a love song but Billy Preston made funk music, as well, like “Will It Go Round In Circles”. Check him and his music out!!
😮 What should i do next?
George Benson "Give me the Night". Same vibe.
The MAC BAND " Rosses are red "
GAP Band " Burn Rubber on Me "
Michael McDonald " I keep forgetting "
DTrain " Keep giving me love " & " you're the one for me "
Need to hear the longer version.
They really tore it up on the Bass.
And produced by The 'Dude'.....Quincy Jones.....RIP 🙏

Finally, a review of soul music…
Everytime is like the excitement of listening for the first time ❤. Bad ass musicians

Thanks for reminding us of this old good joy music.
Thanks for listening
They were great, brother! This song bangs. A party anthem!
Such a great song
Love!

Class of 1980. Y'all have NO idea... :)
That sound will Never die. Brings people together❤
YES!
Same. And yeah the younger generations don’t have a clue about all the great tunes that came out in the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s and part of the 90’s!
You might not like what I am going to say. But this is when music was music.
🤔
That dance in the beginning was called the rock.
The Johnson Brothers played instruments on Michael Jackson's first two solo albums for Quincy Jones. So that's why the music sounds familiar to you
Oh that explains it M.J got nobody but the best 👌
Exatly
And, well, Quincy Jones produced this record. That also helps.
Tower of Power
Definitely a major influence.
Had their album back it the day. Them and wild Cherry brought modern funk slowly out of disco.

Check out Heatwave's two Funk hits: Boogie Nights and Groove Line
Loved stomp! Try the whispers
😎✌🏻
The bass player you are watching is the same bass player on off the wall surprise
Louis Johnson, baby!
Unless you are a bass player I'm not sure the bass playing on this can truly be appreciated
