We're Taking Shout Outs and Requests on WCJS Radio...
My family barbecue is in a little less than two weeks, and I've been nominated as the music director so to speak. I'll be responsible for creating not just CDs for the occaision, but creating a mood, a feeling, a swagger if you will. And yes, I am going thoroughly overboard with this, it's the only way I know to do things.
So I'm asking for some of your favorite Backyard BBQ Bangers. My list starts with "Outstanding" by the Gap Band, "Summertime" by Will and Jeff, and of course, "Electric Boogie" by Marcia Griffiths. What? Did you really think black folks wouldn't have the Electric Slide done at least once?
Anyway, comment with some of your favorite summer and/or bbq songs. Your help will be greatly appreciated. O.K., go!

you gotta add the chacha slide in there and the mississippi mudslide (you cha cha to your right and chacha to yo left. back it up! and jump! a left foot stomp. a right foot stomp.) oh its so hoodish. but the fam will love it if you're making it a party. i'm not good w/older music so i'm the wrong one to ask but those are my suggestions. summertime was already on the list! :)

"We are Family" or "It's a Family Affair" ummm, then get in some of the current stuff to keep it current. Anything that's upbeat and happy will do. Good luck!

Well, I know it's not a family reunion per se, but you can always play that (It was on repeat at a friend's family reunion last year). Duck had some good ones.
