Considering the above song I posted is fairly new, perhaps some of you are more familiar with some of their older work.

 

Songs like...

Gotta Get Away

Come Out And Play

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1jOk8dk-qaU&feature=player_embedded

 

& Self Esteem

...were all released on the album Smash in 1994, which holds the distinction for being the all-time record for most units sold by an independent label band (Epitaph) at 16 million records. Hits like these are what allowed The Offspring to grow (and Punk in general), reaching mainstream success just shortly after its release.

Hey! I really enjoy a few Kool and Gang songs. Amazingly i dont i dont they are in the rock and roll hall of fame.

 

 

Cool. Honestly I don't even know much about them with the exception of this song. I remember hearing this when I was much younger at a 'lil deli/resteraunt my dad used to hang out at. I was attracted to it and now I'm glad I finnaly got the name of the song, as I couldn't remember the lyrics (only "Hollywooooood" lol) but the tune to it.

Young man (Jamaica) do a youtube search of them. If you into old school R&B/POP they are a really good band IMO. During the late 1970's/early '80's(before Hip Hop busted onto the scene)they were among the world's most popular R&B/Pop/Dance bands. Also they a local metro area band with most of the members oringally from Jersey City/Newark, NJ area.

 

 

 

Here a couple of their biggest hits. They several more but touching the surface.

 

1)Summer Madness(will smith sampled this for his early '90's hit "Summertime)

 

2)Celebration their only #1 pop hit

 

3)Open Seasme (Saturday Night Fever soundtrack)

Heard Andre' 3000 aka Andre Benjamin just started production in biofilm to play Jimi Hendrix in a movie on lenegdary rock star. It suppose to debut towards the end of 2013 or early in 2014. Its basically an unauthorized film not endorsed by Hendrix's estate run by his Dad/remaining family.
