Is kc of the sunshine band gay

Rick Finch of KC and the Sunshine Band back in jail...

Apparently he violated parole by having contact with a male minor and ended up advocate in jail in April. Supposedly he'll be out again in January of 2020. This guy is just a train wreck and obviously can't acquire control of himself.

What I wish to know is how did KC get back the other half of the 50/50 royalty split he had with Finch?

R2 I know, but I couldn't locate a printed news report of the re-arrest or I would've posted that instead.

The woman reading that copy sounded like she’d mixed Valium and vodka before hitting record.

I wonder if KC keeps up with the antics of his former band-mate. Supposedly they had a terrible falling out and

KC

When it comes to ranking the most successful acts of the disco era, KC and the Sunshine Band remain right alongside artists such as Donna Summer, Village People and the Bee Gees. Progenitors of the Miami sound created at TK Records in Florida, KC and the Sunshine Band had a phenomenal string of chart hits heard on the radio and in the discotheques, including “Get Down Tonight,” “That’s The Way (I Like It),” “(Shake, Shake, Shake) Shake Your Booty,” “Boogie Shoes,” “I’m Your Boogie Man,” and “Keep It Comin’ Love,” to mention a several. The KC of the title, aka Harry Casey, co-wrote all of the hits and continues to write, record and complete to this day. His latest release, the single “We Match Together,” may be of distinct interest to his LGBT fans. The artwork for the route features images of three couples, one mixed gender and two same gender. Additionally, the route, a collaboration with StoneBridge, is something of a departure from KC’s trademark sound, going more for a modern EDM design. I had the pleasure of speaking with KC about the track and much more in August 2016.

Picking out the subject of these stories isn't always easy; case in gesture, the Village People were scheduled for next week. Today I had planned to present Gloria Gaynor. While I was doing my research, however, I've discovered that she's a born-again Christian and that she repeatedly refuses to say whether or not she thinks homosexuality is erroneous. Her answer to the question whether she sees homosexuality as something sinful, is "I yearn to lead them to Christ, simply, and whatever he has for them." That could imply nothing, or it could mean conversion therapy and all these horrors... I decided I'm not going there. Plus, she recently requested no shirtless men be in her line of sight during her act at a homosexual bar. Tchk! Tchk!

Then I started researching my next scheduled subject, K.C. & The Sunshine Band. I was doing OK, in proof, there are rumors that the band's leader, Harry Wayne Casey, might himself be gay, but then I stumbled upon the information that the band's co-founder,Richard (Rick) Finch, served a 7-year prison sentence for having sex with underage teenage boys. Given the current climate... I'm not going there either.

I will definitely present all t

Glad you like it! That song is a very early one- it's the b-side of their 2nd single "sound your funky horn". KC must hold only been about 22 when he did it. Another interesting one is "I'm Gonna Do Something Good To You" which was the b-side of their 1st single "blow your whistle" and was actually credited to "KC and the Sunshine Junkanoo Band" [[they dropped the 'junkanoo' right after).


The song was written by TK artist Clarence Reid [[aka "blowfly") and he recorded his own version which has the identical same backing track as KC's version.

KC grew up listening to Motown and everything R&B so I'm sure he was influenced by JB. As a matter of fact, I'm sure I've read/heard at least one interview where he's mentioned JB as an influence.




It's all just semantics, really, but the term "disco" became such a pejorative in the late 70s/early 80s in the US, and then the "disco sucks" backlash and the notorious Comiskey Park "Disco Demolition Night"...maybe the narrower the definition of disco, the better? Maybe it's preferable to be called &quo
