Spirit of the Boogie is the sixth studio album by Kool & the Gang, released in 1975. It can be seen as a follow-up to Wild and Peaceful (1973); the instrumental "Jungle Jazz" uses the same basic rhythm track heard in "Jungle Boogie", but lets the players improvise on their instruments (saxophone, trumpet and flute). References to earlier works can be noticed ("Ancestral Ceremony" contains the line: "making merry music...", which was the name of a song from their 1972 album, Good Times). "Spirit of the Boogie" features Donald Boyce, who was rapping on "Jungle Boogie". Some African influence can be felt, and the band even play in a West-Indian style on "Caribbean Festival", another instrumental track, with once more much room for improvisation.

  • Spirit of the Boogie è l'ottavo album dei Kool & the Gang, uscito nel 1975. (it)
  • Spirit of the Boogie är ett musikalbum av Kool and the Gang släppt 1975 på . Har man bara hört de mer lättintagliga låtar som gruppen gjorde från 1979 och framåt blir man kanske förvånad över den intensiva funk som finns på detta album. Många kritiker anser att bandet var som bäst den här perioden då de spelade hårt och livligt, och inte lika kompromissat som på 1980-talet. Titelspåret blev en stor hit, och när "Spirit of the Boogie" släpptes som singel blev även den instrumentala b-sidan, "Summer Madness" en hit. (sv)
