  • Description

    The Gap Band enjoyed huge success throughout the 70s and 80s
    with their unique sound and contribution to the Funk scene.
    Formed in 1967 in their hometown of Tulsa, Oklahoma, brothers
    Charlie, Ronnie and Robert Wilson first went by the name
    Greenwood, Archer and Pine Street Band, later shortening the
    name to The Gap Band in 1973. LA Producer, Lonnie Simmons,
    signed them to his label, Total Experience Records, setting in
    motion what would be the start of a long and prosperous
    relationship between The Gap Band and Simmons.


    The group scored many notable hits in the late 1970's and early
    1980's including Shake (R&B #4), I Don't Believe You Want To
    Get Up And Dance (Oops!, Up Side Your Head) (R&B #4) and
    Burn Rubber (Why You Wanna Hurt Me) (R&B #1) before
    releasing this, their most successful album, Gap Band IV, in 1982.
    Charting at #1 R&B and #14 Pop Gap Band IV achieved platinum
    status and provided two #1 R&B hit singles.
