This post is a continuation of the discussion that blossomed here: http://soulfuldetroit.com/showthread...6979#post66979
I'd say that's a pretty accurate assessment. Like I said, the term "disco" wasn't even used until late 1975 or even 1976 here in the states. To us, it was all R&B dance music. Disco seemed to come about right around the time the stuff from Europe started getting played here, like Donna Summer and Silver Convention.
As for the first disco record is concerned, I don't even care. The sound just seemed to come together from a variety of places. And, there are those who still go nuclear at the mere mention of the word, and those who argue that it's not music, that it destroyed R&B, rock, whatever. But, it's just a friggin' musical style, no more, no less. It's only the snobs and bigots that seem to have a problem with it.
Can't keep still listening to this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LkYKU2PWs7I
Disco happens to be my fav era as well and I'm only 35 yrs old :) Yet, I love how alot of the 78 disco joints evolved into "Disco House Music".
Some of my alltime fav Disco joints, too many to mention but here's a few:
Chic: Everybody Dance
Sylvester: Well pretty much all his hits
CJ & Company: We got our own thang
Carrie Lucas: Keep on Dancing
Sharon Redd: All her hits
Bohannon: "Me and the Gang", "Lets start the Dance"
Black Ivory: Mainline
Five Special: "Why leave us alone"
Cerrone: Love in C Minor
Chic: All the hits ofcourse
Tavares: "It only takes a Minute", other hits
First time I've looked at this thread, quick scan [[boy there's a lot of text) and I can't find any mention of Thelma.
Apologies if there is

For some reason, recalling Jamiroquai brought this song to mind, absolutely no connection!

I don't know if this has been posted yet, but this is my favorite disco song:

And "Let The Music Play" was post-disco but it was a disco song in heart and by intent. If I had to list 20 songs that I prefer hearing turned up extremely loud and in a crowd full of people, this has to be one of them.

I agree, Marv. In the same vein, I'd suggest that this Bob Marley classic can also be classified as disco and reggae.

Just scrolling through this old post and stumbled across this comment. I know it's from years back but personally my entire life has been surrounded and affected by music. I can hear an old song and it will bring back a memory from my past. Beyonce stated that the first time she saw Michael Jackson in concert as a kid, she knew that being a performer was what she wanted to do. That as we can see was LIFE CHANGING. There are certain songs, artists and albums that have affected me in a way that it's hard to explain in words but it definitely had a very positive affect on my life, thus changing it for the better. Everyone's experience is the different but music can definitely change one's life.
Disco was definitely one of my favorite genre's of music. Some people may debate it but most of the PIR classics were disco.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SaLgs93_t0c
