Donna from College Station, TxThis song was No. John from This City, AustraliaGet down boogie oogie oogie.I just love it and you too. That was a very touching comment/story about your dad. Reed from New Ulm, MnLet's not forget "Boogie Nights".is that by the same artist Taste of Honey?. Mark from Monterey, CaBoogie Nights was by Heatwave. Ironically, the band was signed to Capitol and not Alpert's co-founded A & M label. Dodge from Casper, WyThe band is named after the Herb Alpert and Tijuana Brass song and album, "A Taste Of Honey". One of the best disco songs of the era, and still fun to listen to now. Camille from Toronto, OhYes, the famous bass intro: muy fabuloso!!!!! Combine that with the perfect vocals and chorus line: We gonna boogie oogie oogie till you just can't boogie no mo'!!!!! And then the bass throughout. I'm in love with this tune even the more.very inspiring. If you listen close, You hear Janice sing when it goes into the bass solo, ".listen to my bass play". Now that I know what I'm listening to, I can really tell. I learned that from a YouTube interview with Janice Marie. It was Janice Marie Johnson(vocals, bassist), not Hazel Payne (vocals, guitarist) that created the catch line that has since become the beginning line of Boogie Oogie Oogie and Janice sang lead. Letrice from New York, NyFrom reading a Pandora bio, I learned that this tune, which I've loved for years, is not only sung by ladies, but played by them too!! I do have one correction for the above information. I was annoyed we didn’t own a copy of the single. But I knew it was a really solid good track. And the answer was this song, Boogie Oogie Oogie. It was the 1st time I rang a radio station. And sunbaking in my parents backyard with my transistor radio. Toby I get ya.įor me, it brings back memory’s of High School Discos. Glad to see here I’m not the only one who gets real nostalgic when they hear this song. Melinda from AustraliaI so love this song. I Don't Know If It's Right - 3:48 ( Evelyn "Champagne" King). He's the Greatest Dancer - 3:34 ( Sister Sledge). I Love the Nightlife - 3:01 ( Alicia Bridges). I seem to pull it out around once a year or so. The soundtrack album captures everything that I loved about disco, and most (not quite all) of the tracks are fantastic. #Get down boogie oogie oogie disco biscuit movie#
There is an obscure movie about the end of the disco era called The Last Days of Disco. No idea what that was doing there but I took it anyway. And ' A Team of Rivals ', a biography of Abraham Lincoln and his cabinet members. I mentioned earlier that were books in the cast-off box. So I'm glad I got this today, a little blast from the past.
There was too an element of phoniness attached to the whole club scene but dancing to these songs played at extreme volumes was fun and the women were sexy and inviting. Always felt Disco got a bad rfun There was a lot of crap to be sure but what was good was very good I thought. Listening to these songs brings back a lot of memories. A lot of the usual suspects are present ( Ring My Bell - Anita Ward, I Love The Night Life- Alicia Bridges, Boogie Oogie Oogie- A Taste of Honey, I Will Survive - Gloria Gaynor, That's The Way I Like It - KC and The Sunshine Band.) Spent many a night at the clubs cherchez la femme.Īnyway.am playing this CD now and enjoying same. I was in my early 20s when Disco ruled and living in Montreal, surely the Disco capital of Canada. There were about twenty CDs but the only one of interest to me was a compilation called ' Disco Fever ', a collection of 21 songs. I always enjoy seeing these potential treasure treats! On my way to work this morning I saw someone had put out a box of books and CDs for garbage pickup.
