Ladies' Night is the eleventh studio album by the American band Kool & the Gang, released in 1979. It became their first Platinum success, spurred on by two million selling Top Ten singles: the title track "Ladies' Night," and "Too Hot". The album returned them to the mainstream after a lull in their popularity. Ladies' Night hit number one on the U.S. R&B chart. All the cuts from the album reached number five on the disco chart. With Ladies' Night, Kool & the Gang made their funk style more mainstream by incorporating some pop and light R&B into the sound. The result was that this album was not only popular during the 1970s black-oriented funk era where the band started, but also during the more popular and diverse disco era. Ladies' Night became their first million selling LP. It also marked the debut of lead vocalist James "J.T." Taylor.
