Carl Douglas

And there was a whole series about that.

And then there was a song called Everybody Was Kung Fu Fighting by a guy named Carl Douglas.

I don't know if you remember that.

You were probably very, very young if you were even born yet.

Before that, a classic Isley Brothers, Chugga, Let's Make Love Tonight.

And going out with the follow-up from Kung Fu Fighting, this is Carl Douglas, Jamaican vocalist.

Groovy little number, Dance the Kung Fu.

It's going to take us out to the next segment.

Now, they've had a rotating lineup from the 70s all the way into the 2010s with primarily Valerie Holliday, Helen Scott, and Sheila Ferguson during their heyday.

In 1974, they went all the way up to number two with the song When Will I See You Again, and it was held out of the number one position on December 14, 1974 by Carl Douglas' classic Kung Fu Fighting.

It ends right here at song 1438.

This is The Three Degrees with When Will I See You Again.

Oh yes, I am, my child.

That's Carl Douglas.

I'm serving a sentence-

Serving a Sentence of Life

So-

[laughs] Carl Douglas.

Last, last name.

Joe, I hate playing this game with you.

Hey.

Shekinah and Carl Douglas would be proud.

And I'll be traveling, you know, and you can try and find me tomorrow.

Earlier today, I told you exactly where I'm heading to.

Wake me up before you go, go.

We'll go dancing tomorrow night It's cold out there but it's warm in bed They can dance, we'll stay home and stay Mr. Carl Douglas.

Timber sounds the culture.

It was Carl Douglas.

[laughs]

And I'm back here on the JB's Low Tech Podcast.

Yes, that was Carl Douglas with Kung Fu Fighting.

And I

know people are saying, what the heck are you playing that song for? Because of the Protect College Sports Act, everybody's Kung Fu Fighting.
