Everytime I watch this group song's it gives me the chill's wondering how musics was so wonderful back in those days

Champaign Band fantastic, moved and moved, our dances, the hearts of youth, unforgettable and magical 80s, I miss everybody, ❤

Those were them days. I never got hold of the other albums. I have "How about Us" and I pump it all the time. It always gives me a good feeling as if I am hearing it for the first time.

Sounds good after all these years.

A great group, from a golden era of r&b... Man I miss watching American bandstand back in the day..

Luv this group!

I used to go to Christmas parties at DC Studios. He was a super nice guy and is missed by many. I LOVE Champagne and their music transcends time. I am very thankful that You Tube allows past music to be posted for people that missed past eras of the best music (arguably).

Dick Clark was 40 yrs old for 60 years

Dana Walden wrote 'How About Us.'

He looked like Keenan Ivory Wayans here, and Terrence Howard when he got older

clarke's rambling on about the groups clothes clearly shows that by the 1980's it was him that was dated and behind the times.

Vince Burden I actually can see Dick's point about the clothing, particularly socks full of holes. Definitely interesting.

Thanks for downloading this, one of my favorite ever groups, my favorite song of theirs is "How Bout Us" ...Was sad to hear Michael Day passed years ago, that danged cancer 😢. Rest to all passed on including host Dick Clark of this also one of my fave music spotlighting TV shows growing up...

Did that pretty lady die too? Of what? The black guy died?

The lady didn't die. But she was married to the guy with the beard playing the Chapman Stick (far left .) He passed away from cancer in 2001.

Dick Clark was great at patronizing every act that came on from comments about they're names, outfits etc....and all under the guise of innocent humor

He was cheap too and hardly paid these acts anything.

Rena is a keeper

She married the guy on the left, Mike Day. She went on to perform as Rena Day. I think she went into gospel, but I could be wrong. Mike Day died just a few years back.

Seen one interview of a friend of his said he said we can do all things threw Christ who strengthens us. He Christian or no?

Dick Clark was trying to get in a feel🤔

Don't know why I thought of Michael Day, but did. Amazing to know how Jesus changed both he and Rena. I'll never forget Rocky playing at his funeral.

Not much of a interview, annoying guy couldn't stop talking about their wardrobe.

Annoying guy was Dick Clark who owned half the music business at the time.

Dick Clark comes off as a 70-year old who doesn't want these damn kids on his lawn

Dick Clark is such a terrible interviewer that it’s entertaining to watch...in a cringeworthy way.

He wasn't really there to interview. Depending on the amount of time in the show, an interview could last from 30 seconds to just a few minutes. These artists were there to sell their records for their labels and Clark was smart enough in the 50s to realize tv could bring kids and the music they wanted together for a profit.

Dick Clark is a terrible interviewer.
