Trammps Backing Tracks – Disco Inferno … Hold Back The Night. … Zing Went The Strings Of My Heart
The Trammps were an American disco and soul band, who were based in Philadelphia and were one of the first disco bands.
The Trammps formed in 1972 and were friends and classmates from Simon Gratz High School in Philadelphia. The original members were Earl Young (drums), Norman Harris (guitar), Stanley Wade (bass), Ron “Have Mercy” Kersey (keyboards), and Robert UpChurch (vocals). The group was initially called the Trammps II, but changed their name shortly after.
The band’s first major success was with their 1972 cover version of “Zing! Went the Strings of My Heart”. The first disco track they released was “Love Epidemic” in 1973. However, they are best known for their Grammy winning song, “Disco Inferno”, originally released in 1976, becoming a UK pop hit and US R&B hit. After inclusion in the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack, the song was re-released in 1978 and became a US pop hit.
