Gary's Gang was a disco group, who just missed having a Top 40 hit, when their lone Billboard Hot 100 entry "Keep on Dancin'" hit #41 in 1979. The song went top 10 in the UK, making number 8, and made #1 on the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart, along with the songs "Do It At the Disco" and "Let's Love Dance Tonight," the latter of which would be used as the sampling background track to Soulsearcher's 1999 #20 Club Play hit "Can't Get Enough."

The group also enjoyed minor European success with the single "Knock Me Out".

The group, based in Queens, New York, consisted of Gary Turnier, Eric Matthew, Al Lauricella, Rino Minetti, Bill Catalano, Bob Forman and Jay Leon.

In the UK the act was originally thought to be rock / pop singer, Gary Glitter under another name, as he was known as The Leader of the Gang.

    • Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?
      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
