Electrified Funk is the second studio album by the funk rock band Wild Cherry, released in 1977. [2] It contains the track "Baby Don't You Know", which roughly continues the theme and story of their 1976 hit " Play That Funky Music" by effectively explaining that, contrary to popular belief, all of the band's members were white despite its typically-Black funk/R&B sound. The song peaked at number 43 on the Billboard Hot 100 and became their second-highest charting hit. [3] It also contains a repeat of a song from the first album, "Hold On (With Strings)", this time with added violins.
All tracks composed by Rob Parissi; except "It's All Up to You" by Alvin Fields and Michael Zager.
