Dr. Buzzard's Original Savannah Band was a big band and swing-influenced disco band, formed in the Bronx, New York. They are best known for their #1 US dance hit, "Cherchez La Femme/Se Si Bon", from their self-titled debut album. The band released three albums between 1976 and 1979. A smaller lineup known as Dr Buzzard's Savannah Band (omitting the word "original") also released a fourth album in 1984. They were frequent performers at the infamous Studio 54. Bassist Thomas "August Darnell" Browder and vibraphonist Andy Hernandez, a/k/a Coati Mundi, went on to form Kid Creole and the Coconuts and Elbow Bones and the Racketeers. Lead singer Cory Daye also pursued a successful solo career. Their 1976 song, "Sunshower", has been sampled by a number of artists, including A Tribe Called Quest, MIA, Ghostface Killah, De La Soul, and Doug E. Fresh. It was also remixed by Japanese recording artist, Fantastic Plastic Machine. The song was also remixed by Korean musical group The Green Tea.

A compromise was reached with the shows we finally performed on. We went into the studio and did a special TV mix. We muted the lead vocal and some of the background vocals . We also muted a few instruments . On the show Cory's lead vocal , piano , hi-hat , toms , Stony & August background vocals are live. The bell hop singers in the background , horn section, Vibes , Guitar , Bass , most of the Drum kit, Percussion , synthesizer are miming. Notice also that you hear but do not see strings. BELLHOP SIDEBAR: The Bellhop background singers were just hired for the show. The one on the left is Debra Anderson who went on and became part of the disco group Stargard. ---------------------- DISCLAIMER: The intent of this post is anthropological and not to make profit.

"Cherchez la Femme" shown in it's entirety. Composed by Stony Browder,Jr. & August Darnell As promised here is a vintage TV clip of the second song performed by Dr.Buzzard's Original Savannah Band on the Dinah Shore Show. In the previous clip (I'll Play The Fool" ) that also has been posted the introduction was edited however on this clip we show the entire introduction by the legendary Dinah Shore pertaining to the first song. We also show the introduction to the second song. The other guests on the show are Sean Connery , Jill Ireland & George Kirby. Sean Connery needs no introduction. The late Jill Ireland was an actress and married to the late Charles Bronson. The late George Kirby was an amazing crossover comedian known for his great impressions of both Black and White personalities. SUGARCOATED'S SIDE BAR #1: The band members were thrilled to do this show and meet Dinah. There was however an added thrill to meet Sean Connery. After the show the band could not stop talking about how great it was to see Sean Connery aka "007" holding the album. SUGARCOATED'S SIDE BAR #2: Dinah was such a delight trying to converse in Spanish with me off the air. Her command of the language however was a bit limited and when on the air she tried to speak Spanish I could not make sense of it thus the silent gap. She was so adorable trying to say the Spanish word for number which is "Numero" but ended up saying "Numbre". She did a merge of the words "Nombre" (Name) & "Numero .... + Informações

"I'll Play The Fool" shown in it's entirety. Composed by Stony Browder,Jr. & August Darnell This vintage TV clip of Dr.Buzzard's Original Savannah Band begins with an introduction by the legendary Dinah Shore while Sean Connery , Jill Ireland & George Kirby are chilling. This is the first of two songs that were performed. The second song from this TV show has also been posted. SUGARCOATED SIDEBAR: During these times all the TV shows wanted us to mime the entire performance which we were reluctant to do. A compromise was reached with the shows we finally performed on. We went into the studio and did a special TV mix. We muted the lead vocal and some of the background vocals . We also muted a few instruments . On the show Cory's lead vocal is completely live and so is the piano , hi-hat and toms. Stony & August microphones are live but their background vocals are also on tape thus at times they are doubling themselves. The bell hop singers in the background , horn section, Vibraphones , Guitar , Bass , most of the Drum kit, Percussion , synthesizer are miming. Notice also that you hear but do not see strings. Addendum: In those days there were no automated boards or home music software/computers etc. In order to duplicate the exact mix you had to take a polaroids/pictures of the board and painstakingly notate all the knob settings for everything including EQ's, reverbs, delays, volume faders etc. When we did the TV remix we used the mixing documentation in order to maintain .... + Informações
