There was a group of bands in the late 70's and early 80's that I would group together as Party Bands.  These bands really didn't have that many hits.  1 or 2 on average but in concert.  OMG!!!  They could tear it up!  The Bar-Kays and Lakeside were excellent examples of this party.  Lakeside had one or 2 hits.  Their albums were okay to mediocre.  Maybe they froze in the studio.  Maybe the chemistry really flowed in concert.  Anyway, Lakeside with a great tune and a retarded video.
