Which band will be holding a "Celebration" of their 50th anniversary next year?

It’s a "Fresh" funky sounding group, who’ll be "Steppin’ Out" for a major Global Tour which will call in to the UK.

Richard Green chats with the founding father of KOOL AND THE GANG, Robert “Kool” Bell, on BBC Radio Devon, plus
there’s live recordings, extended mixes and music from the stars of the 80’s and beyond.

So if you love great music, great conversation and the sounds of the 80’s. Make sure you’re with Richard Green’s Retro Show.
