Not much information about Michael Zager Band other than the fact that it's an American band formed in 1977 by producer-composer Michael Zager.
Group that will remain mainly in the musical history of the 80s for the enormous Single "Let’s all chant" released in 1978. Single which remains to this day one of the biggest dance hits of all time.
As such alone, we had to devote this article to them.

1978 ... just a single title, THIS title, was enough to bring the artist One Shot into the musical legend of the end of the twentieth century. He signs here quite simply one of the biggest dance hits of all time, all Dancefloor still remember it ! MO-NU-MEN-TAL !
