Zapp III is the third studio album by the American funk band Zapp.[3][4] It was released on July 25, 1983, by Warner Bros. Records.
In July 1983 the third Zapp album, Zapp III, was released. The album still reached gold status, but it was less successful than the first two. When The New Zapp IV U arrived in 1985 the band had lost its momentum. In 1989 the fifth Zapp album V, or Vibe, was released. In the meantime Roger's solo career went on as well. Zapp III was released in 1983, and managed to gain a gold certification, but peaked at only 39 on the Billboard 200 and nine on the R&B chart. Zapp III' s poorer commercial performance became a sign that the band's popularity and impact were beginning to decline toward the mid 1980s, with post-disco music falling out of trend.
