Growing up, the music of “Kool & The Gang“ was a staple in the Boswell household. The music was light, fulfilling and inspiring. With the advent of music television, the music video had step up and be creative and vibrant.  My family owned one of the first JVC VCR modules in the world. The Module weighed about 60 pounds and was as illusive as a DeLorean automobile. The only VHS tape we had was the Kool & The Gang/Get down on it video and the making of Thriller. My friends and I watched this video for weeks.

As you view, notice the florescent suit and shirt combinations and the awesome digital image pause effect, popular in the early 1980’s. This video is an awesome time capsule of a fabulous time in music and fashion.

Thank You Gentleman!
