11 million people bought the 1974 Carl Douglas single "Kung Fu Fighting", making it one of the best selling singles of all time. On January 8, 1975 the disco tune was #3 on the US Billboard Hot 100 Chart. But not everybody was a fan.
On their 1975 comedy album Illegal, Immoral and Fattening, former Turtles turned nationally syndicated radio hosts, Mark "Flo" Volman and Howard "Eddie" Kaylan", riff on the song ( "Boy that song really sucks!") as well as on The Doors epic "The End" and on Jack in the Box. A time capsule gem! See a live performance below beginning at the 3:51 mark.
