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?

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 :)
