Baby, I love this (yes I do), May 26, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Part 3 & More (Audio CD)
Part 3 (the first eight tracks on this CD) represents the best example of the R&B/Latin/Disco fusion that was (and still is) KC and the Sunshine Band. There simply is not a bad song among the first eight; "I'm Your Boogie Man" is still haunting after all these years. But then what? Rhino, rather than piggybacking one of the other '70s KC albums such as "Do You Wanna Go Party," fills out the CD with some interesting KC solo stuff from the '80s. The best of this is "Space Cadet" which should have made the charts! You've got to give KC some artistic credit for trying to stretch out beyond the disco genre. Open your heart, put on your platform shoes, and enjoy this. I do. Yes I do.

Why do I still love this music?, February 13, 2001
This review is from: Part 3 & More (Audio CD)
Most of this music came out from 1976 to 1980. I'm writing this review in early February 2001. Disco icon Harry Wayne Casey (aka KC) recently turned fifty; he is still constantly touring and playing many of these same songs. So why am I still listening? Because it's fun! Even though most of these songs use a frantic dance beat, they are surprisingly relaxing and soothing. Maybe it's because they remind me of when I was a teenager, escaping into the enjoyable rhythm of KC's albums and cassettes (we won't mention eight tracks). Maybe I still love KCSB because they provided us with enjoyable music that never gets old.
