Carl Douglas ~ Kung Fu Fighting 1974 Disco Purrfection Version

Good ol' Carl was working with Biddu on a song written by Larry Weiss (Rhinestone Cowboy) called "I Want To Give You My Everything" when they realized that they needed a B side. Carl already had lyrics to "Kung Fu Fighting" in hand so they recorded it in ten minutes, adding the hoos and haas to make it sound authentic like the karate chops like in the wildly popular Bruce Lee movies. Radio basically snubbed itat first , but once the clubs embraced the song, it took off from there...where radio finally added it to their playlists and then Carl found himself on top the music heap at #1 for two weeks in 1974. This is where the record labels got confirmation that the clubs were now breaking songs too and were a force to be reckoned with.
