Bringin' The GAP !
Though never given just due by music critics, for
the better part of a decade the Gap Band created some great
music that has increased in stature over time and has influenced
a new generation of artists who have liberally borrowed from the
Gap sound in creating modern soul and hip-hop albums. Formed in
Tulsa, Oklahoma in the early 70s by brothers Charlie, Ronnie and
Robert Wilson, the Gap Band largely mimicked musical pioneers
George Clinton, Stevie Wonder and Earth Wind & Fire before
developing their own distinctive sound in the early 80s that
propelled them to the forefront of soul and funk music.

Eddie KENDRICK's "Girl You Need A Change Of Mind" is the first disco song. (1972)
Back to DISCO!
Whom better than SYVESTER can represent DISCO ? A
true superstar, Sylvester represented the black and
gay cultural origins of disco to mainstream America.
His greatest achievement would be Step II. As the LP
was being recorded, Sylvester let Patrick Cowley,
then an up and coming remixer, hear an early version
of "You Make Me Feel Mighty Real." Cowley's synth
overlays transformed the former ballad into a disco
tour de force.
Despite the obvious magic he had with dance material,
Sylvester never viewed himself as a disco act, but he
left us the greatest gems of disco.
This Funklopedik Masters Series is played every WENESDAY & FRIDAY.
