The story behind
Kool & the Gang released "Steppin' Out" in 1981 as a single from the album *Something Special*. The song has a fresh groove, with prominent trumpets and crisp backing vocals. It reached #12 on the R&B charts and #89 on the Billboard Hot 100. In 2004, it was re-released with "Love Festival" as the B-side, and this time featured Beverley Knight on the remix. It is a disco and funk track, recorded in the same year as its release, and is part of De-Lite's discography. ↓ Skip to chordsVerse 1
