Disco...yep, I'm going there

We've all read the comments about disco music, most seem to heavily weigh on the side of "it sucks". I cannot say how many times I've read that two word remark......yet, without any explanation. One thing for sure, that era defined our consciousness and is an important part of our musical history.

Frankly, I love listening to several artists from that era ... Bee Gees, Donna Summer, KC & The Sunshine Band...………..

I really can't understand how anyone can listen to these artists and not be moved to get up and dance. That IS an emotional connection. The exact connection most of us long for. So, what's the problem?

I own 'Saturday Night Fever' as part of my collection, you really can't talk about the '70s and not include that particular piece of music. Its as definitive a work as DSOTM. It defines the era. I play it for my kids who are in their mid 20s. They get a big kick out of it. Now, back then I wouldn't have owned it, but today its a relic of an era and still stands up.
