Ladies' Night (song)

Common card · No. 362364

"Ladies' Night" is a song by American band Kool & the Gang, released as the first single from their eleventh album of the same name (1979). It is a play on the popular use of "Ladies Nights" at bars and clubs that were meant to draw in more female patrons in order to draw in even more male clientele. The single was a big success and became a radio staple. It was a chart success, reaching number four on the US Cash Box Top 100 and number eight on the US Billboard Hot 100 in early 1980. It topped the US R&B chart, where it stayed for three weeks. The single had passed a million in American sales by December and was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). This was also their first hit in the United Kingdom, peaking at number nine on the UK Singles Chart in 1979. Record World called it a "startling shot of funky motion music."
