Disco...yep, I'm going there
In the late 70's I had just turned drinking age in Canada. Still vividly remember going to The Ports in North Toronto. It was a night club with two sections - Rock and Disco - side by side. We would stay in the Rock section till - say 11:00 pm . Then we would mosey along over to the Disco section, because that's where the dancing girls were. In those days the girls never asked the guys to dance 8^( - not like today But there was a better chance in the disco section. lol. Remember a GF trying to get me to buy and wear Jordache jeans instead of my Levis. Just for one night. The Jeans were a strong symbol of the era. ************************** The other strong memory is when a cousin came here from Europe, and I had to buy some records he would enjoy. Disco was big there he told me. So I headed to Sam the Record Man in downtown Toronto. The Madonna album was recommended to me, along with a couple others. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ThHz9wlBeLU This rocker was new to it all. I liked the Bee Gees best. |
