"Movin'" is a song written by Randy Muller and Wade Williamston,[1] and performed by R&B/disco band Brass Construction.
The song was culled together from a 16-minute jam session by the band.[2]
Released from their self-titled 1976 album, the single spent a week at number one on the R&B singles chart in the spring of that year. It was also successful on the pop charts, peaking at number 14 on the Billboard Hot 100.[3] On the disco dance charts, "Movin'" went to number one for four weeks and spent a total of twelve weeks on the chart.[4] Outside the US, "Movin'" went to number 23 in the UK in 1976[5] and peaked at number 24 as "Movin' 1988" when remixed by PWL's Phil Harding.[6] [7] [8]
