Saludos desde México, es gratificante ver éstos videos, en donde se puede apreciar la ejecución de un instrumento musical cualquiera qué éste sea, y máxime acompañado con vocalizacion, dígase masculino y mejor aún femenina, qué él Primerísimo los siga Bendiciendo en compañía de sus Apreciables Familias.
One morning years ago she was on the back of a modest sized yacht catching morning sun while playing this over and over while I was working a boat a few dock slips down,it was one of the nicest treats ever while wrenching away hearing just the bass and occasionally a soft vocals at a perfect sound level.
@@Goldencountry63 wow how cool that is something to cherish I got to meet her at a concert out here in Sacramento about 10 years ago it was awesome I still am in love with her to this day Boogie Oogie Oogie always number one
as a pro musician... I'm humbled... way humbled... Janice... playing bass, singing, working the crowd, smiling, dancing in HEELS!... DID I MENTION THE BASS? I would be standing solid as a rock looking like I was passing a kidney stone playing that part! lolol
She was simply amazing. WOW! What talent. Not many people have this level of pure talent. She did it all while killing it on the bass. vocals, playmanship and phrasing spot on. Worked the crowd while playing. How many people can do that?
Quite a few, actually. Sting for one... but loads of performers who may have opted to hire someone else to play bass - often at the urging of record companies.
I hear you brother. The anonymity of the web lets all sorts of nasty behavior spread across the world. In the past people knew who was talking trash. And the assholes would be called out to prove their slander with their fists.
I was in UK on vacation when the song came out. I purchased the record; back in my country I went to a discotheque and asked the DJ to play it. He said he did not have it yet. I went home to get my copy and he purchased it from me because it got everyone on the dance floor. I never forgot...
I went to college with Linda Taylor. You can find her playing in lot of settings with a lot of artists. She is most visible on the TV show Who's Line Is It Anyway.
A kick-ass performance. This song is 40+ years old and I think even the young folks today would get this. And this lady, Linda, on the electric guitar is shredding hard core!
That must be Janice-Marie Johnson. She's wonderful. I love watching her; she plays a mean bass, has a great voice, and you can tell she's having a good time.
Queen Janice! Killer bass line - the groove is incredible - and she’s singing while playing - this is the stuff of the gods - A Taste of Honey. A master class in musicianship. It doesn’t get any better than this.
No doubt thee most underrated bassist ever. Please let's give her the credit she's long overdue. This is a bad ass bass line. Like disco or not, you can't deny she brings da funk!
I truly hope that when its all said and done that Janice-Marie Johnson will get the respect she deserves as both a singer/musician and a consummate professional when it comes to performing. And to have done this for as long as she has done it, and still look/sound as good as she did back in the day? Much respect to you Miss Thang.
As a lady bassist now, lol I would've never thought that this song would mean so much more now today. lol I used to play this song on my walkman playing connect 4 with my sister back in 1999, just one of my dad's many dj tapes from his youth. This brings joy...RIP Dad
Janice looks and sounds amazing. This is one of the best dance songs ever created. Several decades later this is still a favorite on the dance floor. 😃
I don't care what anyone says,, WE HAD THE BEST music in the 70's and 80's without a doubt. During the disco days, every song got you on the floor. Men and women stayed in shape from it too. hahahaha. Ahhhhhhhh the good 'ol days. There will never be another time in history like it was then. THEE BEST!
70s to mid 80s plus 60s Motown stuff is my favorite and I'm only 47 (born in 1973). I feel music started going down after 1986. Love it! Most people my age and younger really didn't get into anybody older than Madonna. My top favorites besides disco classics are Diana Ross, Donna Summer, and the Pointer Sisters. For male singers, it's Smokey Robinson and Lionel Richie all the way baby.
I am so happy to see JJ grooving still. I was very fortunate to be a part of this project in ALTADENA CA. with FONCE & LARRY MIZELL the producers of TASTE OF HONEY with JJ & HAZEL & PERRY ! 🎹🎵❤️
1978 I was 13 years old and this song was burning up the radio airwaves. Every dance party I went to throughout my teenage years, this song was played. I always loved this song. Thank you for posting this.
@ kss rider. AND, making it look easy!! I’ve been a bass player since 1973 and I know I can play the bass to this but definitely not while singing it and dancing like that. She simply kicks ass!! That’s right, She Bad!! She reminds me of Frieda Payne. Also Hot!!
Amazing! Many of the Disco Bands of the 70s actually played their instruments! The Taste of Honey lead singer is a kick ass bass player not just a pretty face .While she is very beautiful I think she deserves high praise for these amazing songs that defined our generation.Kudos and much love!
Oh yea!! How fun to be in the crowd & dancing along with these ladies & the band, boy oh boy have I got news for you!! Danced to this song back in the day too!! 🎉🎉🎉
For those who lived and danced to Disco, we haven't forgotten the vibrant atmosphere of those energetic times!! I was a preadolescent but that music never left my heart, again and again, I relive the groove and the taste for life and fun; that, I can tell is my Taste of Honey!!!
This song still lifts my soul anytime I listen to it . Big classic !!! I used to just get lost in her beauty and her bass skills . Super gifted lady 😊😊😊
Just a massive “CLASSIC DISCO SONG. Very positive words, special song of the 7O’, getting the tears glow then and now , over all these years. Boogie it all, memories then and now - Just dance the whole night away until morning daylight. Cool baby, good for the mind!!!
Today's talent doesn't compare with Ms. Janice-Marie Johnson & Band, that many years Janice is tight as ever, can U dig-it! Thank You Lord for letting experience real music and food, most important Respect & Love, Chao Bella!
Best bass playing and Linda Taylor on guitar. Love this video. Janice’s funky bass made this the best disco song and to this day, just amazing musicianship in the business. Back in the day, loved Hazel Payne on guitar.
This r legends performing u can't see this presentation today!,sorry to say.....look how high songs of late 70's n 80's decade still crusing high today 2024!
It was in my college days when discotheques were everywhere in the 70’s. I still remember hitting multiple places on weekends and dancing till they closed at 2am.
She sounds soooo good and played even better,that crowed was treated to some special throw back music from the late 70s and very early 80’s....she kicks asssssss💃🏻🕺🏽
Thank you so much @MrFrankybottom for listing the line-up of the band; the drummer is not credited on the DVD nor anywhere else on the internet (an injustice too him as well as the fabulous percussionist) . . . So, thank you for making me a little bit happier :)
Bad to the bone. Brick. House. Mxxxxxxxxed out. Lvvvvvvvvvvv. Da girl. Mr. Armijo Santiago. 80. Years. Old. Da girl. Can. Wake up. Da. Dead. Lvvvvvvvvvvv. Da girl;!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a great track! I loved this song back in the 70's ...still do and it's fantastic to see how the ladies are showing how it should be done! Keep the funk alive sisters, you are awesome!
I Saw them Back In 1979 Funk Fest Chicago Confunkshun, Gap Band, Lakeside, Cameo, Parliament Funkadelic & Taste Of Honey! I'm here to Tell You, She/They Turned The Concert OUT!! She Played a 6 minute Solo!! Man I wish we had Camera Phones Back Then!
