It was 1976, and Disco was hot. While Donna Summer, Barry White, Gloria Gaynor, and the Salsoul Orchestra churned out the genre's early standards, there were also your usual oddities in the shelves, from the overtly sexy to the downright novelty. Dr. Buzzard's Original Savannah Band was neither, and in fact, they weren't even Disco. However, their carefree lyrics and tight danceable musicianship fit beautifully with the times.Co-founded by brothers August Darnell (aka Kid Creole) and Stony Browder Jr., Dr. Buzzard's drew influences from the big-band and swing eras, as well as Soul, Latin, Jazz, and African sounds, and came up with a fresh and lush fusion that was ready for the funky feet.At its very core was the sensual, silky and exuberant voice of Cory Daye, who was more than happy to stay in the background and let the men call the shots. That was, of course, until they buckled under pressure and Cory had no choice but to step out front, give life to August’s lyrics of the “tragic mulatto” and Stony’s dazzling arrangements, and in the process, create one of the most enchanting postcards of the early Disco years.Note: In the episode we mention that Stony Browder Jr. passed on in 1991. He actually passed on in 2001.  Show TracklistingHard Times (Dr. Buzzard's Original Savannah Band)Sara Smile (Daryl Hall and John Oats)She's Gone (Daryl Hall and John Oats)Sunshower (Dr. Buzzard's Original Savannah Band)I'll Play The Fool (Dr. Buzzard's Original Savannah Band)One of A Kind Love Affair (The Spinners)Could It Be I'm Falling In Love (The Spinners)Whispering/Cherchez La Femme (Dr. Buzzard's Original Savannah Band)Single Again (Cory Daye)Dr. Buzzard's on Social Media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drbuzzardsoriginalsavannahband/Cory Daye on Social Media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cory_daye1/Host and Producer: Diego MartinezExecutive Producer: Nicholas "NickFresh" PuzoAudio Engineer: Adam Fogel Follow us on social media: @choonspodSubscribe to our PATREON: patreon.com/choonspod
