One of the best instrumental songs of all time! Kool and the Gang were trend setters in a time were new music was coming out weekly. They started out playing jazz and then transitioned over to a more funky sound. This song is a must play at their concerts. This made me pick up the bass guitar. Kool’s instrument of choice.

If you enjoyed this version of SUMMER MADNESS you should hear the live version from the Rainbow Theater in London from 1976 it’s one of the greatest performances of that song they ever performed. KOOL AND THE GANG was and still is one of the greatest BANDS IN MUSIC HISTORY, I’ve been watching them perform since 1967 and have NEVER BEEN DISSATISFIED OR DISAPPOINTED, also KOOL AND THE GANG Members were some of the NICEST DOWN TO EARTH BROTHERS I’VE EVER HAD THE CHANCE OF MEETING WHEN I WAS YOUNG.

I'm begging you to react to Kool and the Gang's "Whisper Softly", "Jungle Boogie", and "Spirit of the Boogie" because you mentioned on few occasions that the "talent drop off" is significant when think that in the 70s there were musicians who played instruments. Many of today's artist just have synthetic drum beat and few have any instrumentality of even a good hook....Again, I'm begging check out those songs mentioned above...
