Very very good, thanks for sharing Cindy...🎸🤩❤️🤜🤛
Thank you so much, this song is so much fun and powerful too with the horns!
Cindy eres maravillosa, explicas claramente el origen y el estilo de la música que deberíamos de conocer todos, para así comprender y apreciar mejor a los grandes músicos que han aportado su talento a la historia de la música, en espacial éstas bandas como Kool and the Gang, que es una de mis favoritas, muchas gracias y te seguiré viendo, eres muy talentosa y hermosa, saludos desde México,
Hola Humberto, muchas gracias for this beautiful message, I am so glad you enjoy the video and appreciated the music and the information as well, I am too a big fan of Kool & the Gang 🥰
Love it! Thanks for sharing Cindy!
Leonora L thank you so much my dear Leonora 🥰 Hope you are doing well
Sérieux, je suis fiberglasté! J'ai connu ce groupe par la radio dans les années 80. Je n'aurais jamais pensé qu'il avaient un aussi large éventail musical. Tu me fais découvrir encore une fois quelque chose que je soupçonnait pas. Super tune et tu le joues remarquablement bien. Merci de tapager ton talent et les petits secrets de cette industrie. Est-ce que tu as lié Van Halen volontairement? Ce guitariste là a été longtemps et sera toujours un des tops de ma liste. Quelle tristesse de le perdre. J'aurais été vraiment curieux de voir ces deux bands ensemble. C'est tellement différent. Continues ton travail exceptionnel, ma bassiste préférée!
Kool & the Gang a eu plus qu'une vie effectivement, on est loin de Celebration!!! Pour VH non OMG, vraiment je ne l'ai pas trouvé facile.... Vraiment d'une grande tristesse... ce n'était pas volontaire en plus de les lier... Merci de continuer à suivre mes épisodes, ça fait vraiment plaisir!
@@BoogieCindy Celebration, ca s'écoutait bien. Le côté soul, le son du piano... Et puis bien, j'arrêterai pas de te suivre certain! T'es bonne et votre show est super!
Love your walk down history lane... thank you for making our days brighter
That make my day 💛 I am also learning a lot as I am making the videos !!
I love this song and once again you (dance) floor me with your playing. I know you can't get all "Fun Facts" in there but how great is it that this song is on the soundtrack of "Saturday Night Fever?"
Thank you so much Alan, we used to open our show with this song, we also do it with the symphonic version of our show, I included the video of the dance sequence of SNF , such a important piece of the soundtrack!
Super!
Thank you 🥰
Te pasaste. Eres la mejor. ..gracias..
Por favor kurtis blow ...😀
Y si puedes souvenir. De voyage. Gracias.
Muchas Gracias, ahora no estoy haciendo mas videos, porque estoy haciendo shows con mi banda.
Brilliant, you have so much information and your fans are knowledgeable too. Hey, I worked for Kool as accountant. He gave me the nickname "Taxman"
How KOOL is that 🤩 I love it and the nickname might stick next time I see you!!!
Another great bass selection! I couldn't help notice an Indonesian wayang puppet on the bookcase because I have a few too! Always a treat to see you BC!
Great observation! I had the chance to go to Bali many years ago, I still love mine xox
I had no idea that Kool & the Gang toured with Van Halen! 😮 Considering that disco and classic rock are tied for my favorite musical genres, that makes my heart happy 😆 Another great video, Cindy, and you sounded very groovy on the bass always 😊👍🏻
I wished I could have seen that double bill too, I really love both band as well, and thank you for the compliment 💛
This program is always very interesting!!!! Congratulation, Gianfranco from Turin, Italy.
skysurfer73 thank you so so much 😊 ciao Gianfranco!
I remember the Beastie Boys used a sample of this song in the Shazam! on the album to the 5 boroughs
Oh I didn't know, so cool!!!
WOW! Great presentation...do you have any originals? It is so fun watching you!
My band has a few yes, here's one that I love ua-cam.com/video/O640ZBbdwrM/v-deo.html
OMG, where do you have all this deep insight knowledge from? I never knew, that Deodato was a producer for Kool that time.
I am a huge disco and funk fan!!!
The bass player's name is Robert Kool Bell.
I just looove your research especially ”funfact” AND Superfunfact😁😁
Your skill on the instrument we all know by now is just amazing and beyond..👍💃🏻🕺🏻🎶 Happy weekend from Sweden🇸🇪
Thank you so much my dear Carl-Fredrik, I love the fun facts and super ones too, Have a great week end too 🤩
