YOUR REVIEWS & COMMENTS
In deed, early on his records were nearly instrumental, but by the late 70s he began to feature huge-voiced diva Carolyn Crawford, shouting ''D'ont you wanna dance'',
a huge huge disco smash,
his second release for Mercury was 1978's "Summertime Groove." "Summertime Groove" exemplifies the BOHANNON sound, as does the funky, potent "Let's Start The Dance." This song propelled the album to the top of the charts and was a huge summer smash thanks to Carolyn Crawford's vocals (He subsequently produced Crawford's solo release, "Coming On Strong," that same year),. "Me And The Gang," "The Street Dance," and the lesser of the rump-shakers, "Listen To The Children Play," continue the party atmosphere. This is pure uncut boogie music. The only ballad is a wistful winner titled "I Wonder Why."
