Today Marks The 47th Anniversary of Chocolate Milk’s 5th Studio Album “Milky Way” Originally Released on February 22, 1979.
“Milky Way” is the fifth studio album by New Orleans, Louisiana funk band Chocolate Milk released in 1979 by RCA Records.
The album features a blend of funk, soul, and jazz, with, in some tracks, a smoother, "LA-style" sound.
Two songs were released as singles from the album "Say Won'tcha" and "Groove City".
"Say Won'tcha" reached #39 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Soul Singles charts.
"Groove City" reached #59 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Soul Singles charts.
The song "You're the One” was another standout track from the album.
While some found it slightly less consistent than previous efforts, others consider it a strong, underrated, and, at times, "perfectly funky" example of late-70s funk.
