I always loved KC and The Sunshine Band even though I hated disco. What keyboard is he playing? This is from 1973. -charley

KC and his band produced some pretty damn good dance music with no need for loud driving synth sounds that the modern dance genre seems to require. Their infectious rhythms were very effective.

God Bless,

I get to see them Life here at our annual county fair.
Sugar Ray and Huey Lewis and the news are coming too.
The music is always free. Just the fee to get into the fair.
We have a big arena were amazing bands perform for 10 days in August. rocker keys
Last year I went to see Patti LaBelle. She was still awesome.
Saw: Styx, Foreigner, CCR, Pat Benatar, REO Speedwagon, Hal & Oats, Chaka Kahn, to name a few ...
Always fun grin

Yes thats a Rhoades. He used to use a Clavinet on top. On one show which was on live TV way back I remember him trying to sing and keep the Clavinet from slipping off. Must of been a round top Rhodes. I had two fo the flat top ones.
Just put together a medly of his songs and platyed it for a big Block Party dance. People were lovin it so I played it for about 10 minutes.
