@clutch236

More like (Funk that Disco enjoyed!). Kool & The Gang were primarily a "Funk" band who did danceable music because they like othe Funk bands had a lot of infectious "rhythm", therefore, the Disco lovers enjoyed borrowing some of the more (upbeat, danceable "Funk"). Then many years later, some of the younger generation starts erroneously calling (upbeat/danceable Funk, "Disco". HOWEVER, it "is" true that when Disco became super popular, many Funk groups certainly tried to "cash in" by attempting to make records that would do TWO things: (1. cross-over to capture Disco fans.........2. while maintaining enough R&B/Funk to KEEP their Funk fans). The one that probably had the most success doing that was probably (Earth Wind & Fire with "Boogie Wonderland"). Kool & The Gang changed from Funk to cross-over (R&B/POP) and made a ton of money with songs like "Celebration" - good for their bank accounts, but I enjoy their earlier R&B/Funk such as: (Open Sesame...Jungle Boogie....Hollywood Swinging....and certainly last but not least, "Funky Stuff").🤘
