On this day in music history: November 28, 1981 - “Let’s Groove” by Earth, Wind & Fire hits #1 on the Billboard R&B singles chart for 8 weeks, also peaking at #3 on the Billboard Hot 100 on December 19, 1981. Written by Maurice White and Wayne Vaughn, it is the seventh chart topping single for the veteran R&B band led by Maurice White. Following the somewhat muted commercial response to the bands’ previous album “Faces”, White collaborates with songwriter Wayne Vaughn, a member of The Brothers Johnson’s touring band who is married to Wanda Hutchinson, the lead singer of The Emotions. White and Vaughn end up writing three songs together including “Wanna Be With You”, “My Love”, and the uptempo “Let’s Groove”. Sporting a sleek more electronic sound than before, “Groove” is issued as the first single from Earth, Wind & Fire’s eleventh album “Raise!” in September of 1981. The song is an immediate hit, restoring the band to commercial prominence on both the pop and R&B charts. “Groove” tops the R&B charts longer than any of their previous chart topping singles, and holding at #3 on the Hot 100 for five consecutive weeks behind Foreigner’s “Waiting For A Girl Like You” and Olivia Newton-John’s “Physical” (occupying positions number two and one). It is nominated for a Grammy Award for Best R&B Vocal Performance by a Duo or Group in 1982. While the single is still burning up the charts, CBS Records also releases an extended dance remix of “Let’s Groove” in the US in December of 1981, to club DJ’s and radio stations as a promotional only 12" single (though is released for commercial sale outside the US). The song is later used as running joke on the Comedy Central series “That’s My Bush!” and in a television commercial for Toujeo in 2017. “Let’s Groove” is certified Gold in the US by the RIAA.

By the way...
I’m not a long talker so a lot of my post might not have long, witty captions or notes.
