C.J. & Company (also C.J. & Co. or C.C. & Co.) was a disco group from Detroit, Michigan. They were the partnership of producers, funk-brother, Dennis Coffey & Mike Theodore. Their highest charting single in the US was "Devil's Gun", which reached #36 on the ''Billboard'' pop chart, spending 29 weeks on the HOT 100. It wound up being the #100 song of the year on BILLBOARD's year end charts, (though only peaking at #36), and #2 on the R&B chart in 1977. It also peaked at #43 in the UK Singles Chart. That song, along with "We Got Our Own Thing" (later sampled by Heavy D and the Boyz) and "Sure Can't Go to the Moon," hit #1 for five weeks on the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart. They released two full length LPs, 'Devil's Gun' (1977) and 'Deadeye Dick' (1978) both for Westbound Records. In 1998 a compilation CD was released with full length selected tracks from both LPs. "Devil's Gun" was the first record played at the opening of Studio 54 by DJ Richie Kaczor.〔http://www.disco-disco.com ("Disco-Disco: A history of Studio 54" ).〕 An instrumental version of "Devil's Gun" was featured prominently in the International version of ''Crocodile''. ==See also== *List of number-one dance hits (United States) *List of artists who reached number one on the US Dance chart 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「C.
