Season 1 Episode 48
November 29, 1998 60m Not Rated
They blasted onto the American airwaves in the fall of 1975 with a sexy, explicit invitation to just let go...a multi-cultural group of musicians who were all about the groove..led by a charismatic singer who was convinced that someday he would make it big. KC & the Sunshine Band crossed pop melodies with disco rhythms to the tune of 75 million albums sold. But the boogie superstar would be tripped up by rock and roll excess-- his band torn apart by jealousy, paranoia and personal tragedies. KC was devastated by the death of his father and he disappeared into obscurity for a decade, before recapturing the spirit of his early years. Includes interviews with KC, his mom, his sister, his collaborator/close associate, Rick Finch and Harry Stone, the man who gave KC his first break.
