“LOVE ROLLERCOASTER” by OHIO PLAYERS

Day Six of BLACK HISTORY MONTH features a classic funk song that highlights a catchy and upbeat melody, with a driving bassline and funky guitar riffs.

The urban legend (associated with this song) revolves around a high-pitched scream that can be heard in the background during the instrumental break. According to legend, the scream is that of a woman being murdered in the studio. However, this is widely regarded as a myth, and the scream is thought to have been a sound effect or a member of the band. The exact origin of the scream remains a topic of speculation and has become part of the song’s legacy.

On this very day, February 6th 1976, it was the #1 song in America, topping Billboard’s Hot 100 chart. If you’d like to have a listen, please feel free to use the provided link. Continuing our Black History month, here’s the OHIO PLAYERS with “LOVE ROLLERCOASTER”…
