Disco...yep, I'm going there

Speaking of Bee Gees, they truly had a split personality, in some musical sense. Compare Odessa with Saturday Night Fever and it cannot be more different. The only consistency is that, I think, both are brilliant in their own right.

To add to tyray’s post above, all of you girls/guys have nice systems. Get Al Green’s Let’s stay together album (vinyl, if you can, but anything will do), dim the lights, play How can you mend a broken heart, and come back here and make fun of Bee Gees. If you can, that is.

As a bonus, you could also try Rod Stewart (with Booker T.) and To love somebody. You will be treated to a performance by the man who sang Da ya think I’m sexy singing song written by Bee Gees. Double whammy.

First, I do enjoy some disco and I have a large collection of disco.  I also really enjoy Jazz, EDM, Classical, Classic Rock, some Pop, Blues, Celtic and R&B.  But not country, most punk, most heavy metal and some others I cannot think of at the moment.  I took part quite heavily in the whole disco scene (not the drugs too expensive).  I have always enjoyed dancing (no I am not gay) and learned the Hustle and Salsa as a result. Met a lot of girls, one became my wife and a lot of great people.  I will say only two or three of the groups mentioned would I say were good disco; they were Chic, Donna Summers and Giorgio Morodor.  Most of the good disco IMO was european disco or club music such as Cerrone, Voyage, Amant, Gino Soccio, Change, Sylvester, and many more.  I agree that the beat is pretty monotonous, but it is pretty hard to dance to something that does not have a steady beat.  As far as musicallity goes listen to Voyage or Change, I think it is great music for the genre.  I try not to compare music from one genre to the next and then make a distinction on which is better, I think it is an apple and orange comparison.  What I will say in support of disco, for some, it gets your feet moving and your heart pumping and that's good.  If your looking for something cerebral or meditative the disco genre is not it but neither is Punk, Grunge or Swing.  It was made to dance to and not much else.  

Disco and Funk fan signing in here!

I played in a local disco/funk band for many years (ironically,  well after disco died).

Just received an album I purchased on discogs: Meco’s disco version of the Star Trek Movie and The Black Hole themes.  It’s terrific.  All hail disco!!!!  And ignore the stick I’m the muds who never learned to dance :)

Ah, Disco Demolition Night and Steve Dahl.
