Black Disco Friday!

As music historians have noted, there were two discos. The white disco, exemplified by such whitey standard-bearers as The BeeGees and KC & the Sunshine Band, and then there was the black — or “good” — disco: Kool & the Gang, The Commodores, The Gap Band. Over the last 30-odd years, this form of disco has been scientifically and sociologically proven in several university studies to be the booty-shakin’-est music ever produced by modern man.

Here at FrankBeaton.com, we are committed to making you all shake your groove thangs and get up, uh get on up, on the dance floor. So for the next four weeks, every Friday, we will be presenting some of the finest in black disco.

First up is the Grammy-winning(!) “Let it Whip” by Dazz Band, which is currently being used on a commercial for a delicious candy bar. If this doesn’t make you dance, you’re likely suffering from clinical depression and you should talk to your doctor.
