First year of college. Everyone in the dorm studying. Midnight. Someone sticks their speakers in the hall and plays this (and Rick James). Doors open. Dancing happens. 15 mins later, everyone goes back to their room and studies resume. Good times. Met my future husband in that hallway (married 41 years)

Kyu Sakamoto's version of Sukiyaki was originally titled "Ue o Muite Aruko" in 1961, The American and British DJs couldn't pronounce it so the Label named it "Sukiyaki." It was derogatory to say the least, but the song was an international hit. I remember hearing Sukiyaki on LA Pop and Rock 'n Roll stations. Mr.Sakamoto perished in a Japanese airline disaster of 1985.

I've recently come to realize that 1978 was probably the greatest year in music in my lifetime. Boogie Oogie Oogie was #9 on the Billboard Charts that year. Saturday night fever came out in December 77. The 1978 charts had five of the top 10 songs from one family.(BeeGees had 3, Andy Gibb had 2) it was the year the movie Grease came out. Another great song from that year was Love Will Find a Way by Pablo Cruise. Summer 78 was the season of Baker Street and Donna Summer's Last Dance.

That sound y'all thought might be a kazoo is an electric guitar played by one of the women, and it looks great and sounds just as good in the live performance clip. Another really funky female group from this period is Stargard, who had a radio hit in 1977 with "Which Way is Up?," which is like Funkadelic funky.

That sound you're hearing that you think might be kazoo is actually a clavinet, the same instrument you hear Stevie Wonder play on a number of songs but which you'll particularly notice in the intro to his song, "Superstition." A clavinet is similar to a piano but smaller, electronically amplified (because otherwise it's super quiet), and makes its sounds in a similar but slightly different way than a piano, giving its notes more of a metallic sound. The clavinet is basically a modern version of a clavichord, a keyboard instrument invented in the 14th century and which was a precursor to the harpsichord, a bigger, louder keyboard instrument you hear a lot in classical music from the 18th century, like Mozart, Bach, etc. In the middle of the 20th century, Ernst Zacharias decided to update the clavichord by making it electronically amplified and the clavinet is the result. TWO FUN FACTS ABOUT CLAVINETS: (1) Stevie Wonder has referred to the clavinet as "my electric guitar," because it gives him that gritty, funky, metallic sound he can't get with any other instrument; and (2) because the clavinet is electronically amplified, you can attach FX pedals just like for a guitar, including things like wah-wah pedals and overdrive pedals. In fact, some modern clavinets even have a whammy bar for aggressive pitch-bending. It's a cool instrument with a very unique sound. Of course, these days, you don't need to actually buy a clavinet. Most synthesizers and computer music programs have at least one setting or sample that mimics the sound of the clavinet.

Boogie Oogie Oogie reminds me soooooo much of the music my late grandmother Ollie use to enjoy. In secret. She was a relatively conservative black woman from Louisiana. She birthed 7 children with her husband, my grandfather Leo. Sonny August Precious (aka Bill) James Karl (my father) John Karl Jewel (my very favorite auntie!) and Ray She had a very, very busy life raising all her offspring. This was one of her favorite songs from that era. I would peep her secretly miming the lyrics when it would play at my Aunt Bill's summertime pool parties. She never really was open about letting herself be herself, be a freer version of her older self. Catching her lipping the lyrics, and doing the most subtle shoulder shrug dance moves while nobody was paying attention. That song is a memory trigger to me. Thank you for choosing it. That song, and Shalamar's "Second Time Around" She loved it! Off topic: This is day 17 of my birthday month. I am going to optimistically and politely ask if you could react to the album version of Peter Gabriel's "Rhythm of the Heat", and possibly his other songs off his "Security" album, like San Jacinto, The Family and the Fishing Net, and Shock the Monkey. 🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞

Jay and Amber, this is a banger LIVE! You miss most of the impact and magic happening with these artists who play bass and electric guitar as they sing! ❤

Love this song. Jaws, you're right. I saw them in an interview explaining how it came to be (telling my age). Reminds me of why Wild Cherry wrote their hit "Play that funky music white boy", they were told not to play any funky music by a black band.

This is one of the outstanding songs from the Disco era. Danced to this at the clubs lots of times. 💃🏻 🕺 but this group was pretty much a one hit wonder. You guys still need to check out the big Disco classics from K.C. the Sunshine Band - Get Down Tonight and That’s the Way I Like It.

You have to watch their performances. Two beautiful sistas killing it on the instruments and vocals. Check out their songs “Ladies of the 80’s” & “Rescue Me.”

I've always liked this song. Songs that you can't sit still to are some of the best.

I love this song! You should have used the live version to see the women play the guitars! They are amazing! Their other hit was Sukiyaki an English version of a very popular Japenese song. its funny because when it came out everyone was singing it but no one knew what the song was about!

Another great '70's dance classic. A crowd favorite that never failed in getting the people up to dance. Those sisters knew how to get down - a perfect combination of guitar and bass. Jay - love the shirt!!

Oh this will and has always been a favorite of mine since 1978. "Sukiyaki", "I'll Try Something New"(A Smokey Robinson cover) and "Rescue Me" are wonderful songs by A Taste Of Honey worth a listen. Other songs from various albums are also great.

The “kazoo” sound is actually a guitar with a heavy fuzz effect.

Amber, the lover of horns, you should also listen to the song A Taste Of Honey by Herb Alpert’s Tijuana Brass from 1965. It’s all brass horns, drums and a little guitar, right up your alley. It was also included with vocals on a Beatles album two years earlier, but Herb’s instrumental version is better and even won him three Grammy awards in 1966. I think you’ll enjoy it.

Good old Whipped Cream album! Jay would appreciate the cover art.

I was a young man of 21 when this came out! Now I'm 67 and I still love it! I think that sound you're trying to identify is actually a guitar running through a pedal to synthesize the sound.
