A Taste Of Honey - Boogie Oogie Oogie (1978)

Taste Of Honey's "Boogie Oogie Oogie" hardly needs an introduction -- Released from their self-titled album in 1978, it became an extremely popular "crossover" song. It topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart. It would eventually sell over two million copies and has become one of the most recognizable songs from the late 1970s disco era. It would also help the group win the Grammy Award for Best New Artist of 1978 and it's one of those classics that broke big on the club, hit hard on radio, and still gets revived a lot today! The tune's a joyous bouncing bit of mainstream disco.
