Editorial Reviews

Amazon.co.uk Review
K.C. & the Sunshine Band, led by Harry Wayne Casey, brought a bit of male bravado to the predominantly diva-led disco scene. K.C. and company incorporated a Caribbean feel to their music, with swelling--and staccato--horn parts and multi-layered vocals. The repetition of the choruses of "Shake Your Booty" and "That's the Way (I Like It)" had every gold-chain wearing male on the dance floor singing along. While these hits, and "Get Down Tonight", are now disco cultural reference points, "Sound Your Funky Horn", a minor hit earlier in the band's career, has more of an island feel to it. Best of K.C. & the Sunshine Band provides a fairly broad sampling of the Sunshine Band's music, including "Keep It Comin' Love", "I'm Your Boogie Man", and the tropical funk of "Boogie Shoes". --Steve Gdula

KC's most finest seventies disco collection ever!5
K.C. & The Sunshine Band gave their own musical revolutionary sound for a disinctive way of rock history through an american disco faze trend society. This CD sure does represent and introduces various stages on how popular they became. My favorite songs on here are "I'm Your Boogy Man", "Shake Your Booty", "Get Down Tonight" and "That's The Way I Like". The best music compilation ever to a casual listener who will re-live by remembering the seventies and they'll find it mostly their satisfied interest!

Lightweight funky seventies soul music5
KC and the Sunshine Band are remembered for their very catchy songs that appealed equally to radio stations, record buyers and disco dancers. They were extremely popular in America, where they had four number one hits in the seventies. In Britain, they had just three top ten hits in the seventies but they eventually had a British number one (Give it up - not included here) on a different record label in the eighties.

Their first major hit, Queen of clubs, made the top ten on both sides of the Atlantic. After another transatlantic hit, Sound your funky horn, they had three consecutive number one hits in America (Get down tonight, That's the way I like it, Shake your booty) but two of these just missed the UK top twenty while That's the way I like it made the UK top five. More hits followed including I'm your boogie man (their fourth American number one but only a minor UK hit).

KC and the Sunshine Band surprised everybody by releasing a ballad in 1979, Please don't go. It made the top ten on both sides of the Atlantic. It was their first UK top three hit. Not long after that, their record label collapsed and their subsequent music is outside the scope of this compilation.

This contains all the significant tracks that the group recorded in the seventies. If you enjoy seventies disco music, you'll love this collection.
