Disco!

^^Seriously EB?

There are 1,000's of albums ahead of KC and the Sunshine band on my list. Just get a disco compilation CD with Boogie Shoes.

Here's one of my favorites, and yeah I have a copy of Bony M's hits in my library, mostly just for this song.

I like disco and have quite a few cuts...I still have this and I'm not ashamed to admit it.

The orchestration on this album is awesome...in fact all disco used alot of real strings and brass.

For all the abuse Disco takes from music fans, it does remind us all about one important fact, music can be pure unadulterated fun, with no aspirations beyond just that. If I want cerebral stimulation I'll play a Shostakovich Symphony, if I want some intense music I'll play some Hard Rock/Metal, and when I want to "Flashback" to the days of my youth and have a good laugh, I'll pop in some of my old Disco albums...makes me smile everytime I play them.

 

[METALPRIEST]

Agreed! That is what disco is/was all about. Fun.

Nothing makes me laugh and bop more than this song. Bootsy Collins is such an "over the top" performer, and a definite classic. The whole group Parliament is well worth checking out...such classic performers as George Clinton, Bernie Worrell, and Eddie Hazel.








The quality of this old video is pretty poor, but this is a funny song, too

Casablanca Records were the disco kings!! Great Parliment stuff!

Don't forget when these hard rockers took a stab at it.

Not many people may remember this and i don't believe this was ever posted here on this forum. Here is the 12' disco Mix of I Was Made for Loving You.

The disco mixes were more fun sometimes and of course were used in the dance clubs.

The Village People are a must for any party or anything that I throw. Particularly "In The Navy", "Macho Man", and of course "Y.M.C.A.". They're just fun songs.

I really like their sound... the simplicity of all the songs... it's like the Ramones, but they swing, and have a wah wah pedal, and just aren't quite as cool
they are simple and catchy though, what others would be recommended ahead of them?

Even the Eagles took a stab at disco, they took on a Bee Gee's sound:




Rod Stewart, another classic rocker who dabbled in Disco:




And of course Bowie:
