These guys were more funk, jazz and soul than disco, but Pick Up The Pieces was a disco hit back in the day.

Here's some vids from them performing back in the day:

I know one of the guys out of A.W.B - Hamish Stuart his previous band the Dream Police played regulary at a club i worked in . After A.W.B folded he joined Wings. About 7 years ago his new band played at a local club,he could'nt believe it was me behind the decks.

Wow, you got to know Hamish Stuart! Cool. I know it's splitting hairs, but he didn't join Wings. I recall he played behind Paul McCartney in the late 80s through the 90s, whereas Wings was a 70s project that included Denny Laine and Linda McCartney. I think once Denny left, Wings was disbanded officially. Too bad Paul and Denny haven't collaborated on anything since. Probably a lot of bad blood there.

But back to Hamish, man that guy was awesome, except for his hair in that Put It Where You Want It performance. I liked how he and Alan Gorrie took turns playing guitar and bass, depending on who sang lead I guess.

Disco Funk

I've actually seen Denny Laine live in the early 70's, the guy who booked the acts at the club i worked in had a lot of contacts. Also on that club you could have seen - Funkadelic - The Vibrations - Buddy Guy - Maxine Brown - Mary Wells - Martha Reeves - Edwin Starr & Junior Walker.
