Another bad ass disco classic w/an outrageously beautiful bassline from The Jacksons. One of the group's biggest hits was written by both Randy & Michael Jackson. They were inspired by an ad-lib from Marvin Gaye's 'Got to Give It Up' & rhythmic pattern from Teddy Pendergrass' 'Get Up, Get Down, Get Funky, Get Loose'.
Though his was a bigger hit on the Hot 100 (#7) than 'Blame It On The Boogie', they both shared the same peak on R&B (#3). MJ's amazing vocals & the production makes this song for me. The remastered radio edit does the song justice.

One of their better mid-to late 70s singles.

Love this.
"Lovely One" from late 1980 sounds similar to this.

Absolutely my favorite! Shaggy had sampled this in one of his songs.

The best post-Motown Jackson 5/Jacksons song. Often heard this on V103 and defunct 103.5 Jammin' Oldies during my younger years.
