Funky Town

So when you have new video and sound technology that allows you to do cool things artistically, what is likely to happen almost immediately?

Overuse of the techniques, structured around women dancing to repetitive songs with banal lyrics. And it sells.  Every time, I think.

I am amazed and embarrassed to notice after all these years that the band's name is a pun

I wouldn't be ashamed of not having paid close attention.

At least you noticed the name of the band.I am QUITE familiar with the song, as the disco across the street from where I lived in Argentina played that tune many times daily. I didn't find out the name of the band until you pointed out the pun- four decades later.

@ stevo - and take comfort from the fact that I didn't notice it until you pointed it out.
