Editorial Review:
KC and the Sunshine Band, led by Harry Wayne Casey, brought a bit of male bravado to the predominantly diva-led disco scene. KC and company incorporated a Caribbean feel to their music, with swelling--and staccato--horn parts and multilayered 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. The Best of KC and 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

Rating:  - a solid greatest hits package geared toward the casual fan
KC & The Sunshine Band created some really great music during those disco days; and this CD helps to bring back many fond memories. As other reviewers have written, there are more comprehensive retrospective CDs out there; but for the casual fan like me this is really great!
The tracks are five star quality! "Get Down Tonight" sports that funky 1970s disco beat with some great sound effects; the drums, percussion and electric guitars come in to carry the bulk of the melody. The band ... Read More
Rating: - Great memories
I gave this to my husband for Father's Day and he thought it was the best. All our family and friends enjoy it when they are over to swim. It brings back a lot of good memories and now my 5 year old grandson is singing along as he also loves the songs especially "shake your booty".
Rating:  - old music
I bought this product for my mom because all she had was the old records & when i gave it to her she was so happy and she loves it.
Rating: - blast from the past
I enjoyed the CD. Lots of great tunes from yesterday. Plus a few I had not heard. And my kids like it, too. I think I appreciate the music now even more than when I first heard it when the songs were originally released.
Rating: - Great
