If you were teen in 1979 when the funk band known as Kool and The Gang released the track called "Ladies Night" from the album of the same name, you might be feeling the need to get shakin' right now as those great youthful memories come rushing in. The audience at the concert in Jamaica back 1996 must have felt all those thrills.
