DEF: Kool & The Gang “Too Hot”
New Jersey-based band Kool & The Gang hit the Top 10 on Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart three times in the 1970s and then went on to amass nine more during the 1980s. The group’s very first Top 10 hit of the 1980s occurred during the opening months of the decade, as “Too Hot” reached a peak position of number 5.
Exactly 35 years ago, “Too Hot” climbed into that peak position, where it would spend two weeks. Today, “Too Hot” is the Daily Eighties Flashback.
