Everyone knows The Osmonds as the very hookie, mormon singing group that rivaled the Partridge Family for corniest family group of the 70’s.
To our knowledge few appreciate their music with the exception of “I,I,I.” In 1979 Maurice Gibb of Bee Gees‘ fame helped the fam make one of the most epic disco tracks ever, which unfortunately went unnoticed.
Ironically their fan base was not ready for disco and disco heads was not interested in hearing The Osmonds.
We were introduced to it by San Fran’s Jeno who dropped it at a Heathen’s Delight party a few years back and it sent us into 4 minutes of cosmic disco rock bliss.

FUN FACT: Rumor has it that only about 500-1000 promo records of the single were pressed and thus a prized record in any vinyl collection.
Hugh Babb [atlanta] was a consultant on the project. Paul McDuffie worked at the skunk works.. Bradley Dennis who still lives in Dunwoody Ga was the shop foreman.. He now inspects houses..In Smokey Yunicks book Smokey said that Brad Dennis was the only person he ever learned any thing from.. Mr Dennis was//is a wizz on carburators.. I knew of 2 of the cars One was bought by a bootlegger in south ga. I dont rember his name and the other was bought by Birmingham Alabama businessman Cosby Hodges..I think it was wrecked at the beach.But I know it was wrecked and not repaired. About the same time Rex White [who still lives in Atlanta] and Tom Pistone also built cars two identical cars that were backed by general motors.. This is all I can recall as it was a long time ago..OH yes you might catch them at the Moonshine Festival in Dawsonville. If so they we will be at the Georgia Auto racing hall of fame booth.. I hope this helps….Bobby..
