Starland Vocal Band - Afternoon Delight / Starland (1976) - single

Starland Vocal Band was an American pop band, known primarily for "Afternoon Delight", one of the biggest-selling singles of 1976. The group began as Fat City, a husband/wife duo of Bill Danoff and Taffy Nivert.
"Afternoon Delight" is a song featuring close harmony and sexually suggestive wordplay. The title came from the happy hour menu at Clyde's restaurant in Georgetown, Washington, D.C., where Bill Danoff was eating with fellow bandmember Margot Chapman while his then-wife Taffy Danoff was undergoing surgery for cervical cancer. Danoff enjoyed writing the song and downplayed the somewhat controversial lyrics, saying, "I didn't want to write an all-out sex song ... I just wanted to write something that was fun and hinted at sex."
