The Dazz Band was one of the leading Funk bands of the eighties being formed in the late seventies by Bobby Harris.

After numerous line up changes the band settled on an eight piece format with the intention of playing Danceable Jazz from which the name The Dazz Band was derived. In 1980 the band signed to the legendary Motown label and released their debut album entitled Invitation To Love. The band however really hit the big time with their second album Keep It... Live and the single Let It Whip which won the band a Grammy Award. The band continued through the eighties releasing six consecutive Top 100 albums.
