Don't know much about disco, except disco and inebriation go hand in hand for me. In these times of inebriation, my go-to is the Last Days of Disco soundtrack.

reply

A classic disco soundtrack 🕺🏻

I still like to listen to some disco - I was in my late 20's when the disco craze was going strong. I especially like Donna Summer.

reply

I Feel Love is a classic.

reply

KISS!

reply

Lol. Dude, did you get lost? Or are you burning albums?;)

They had a brief foray into disco. Who could forget "I Was Made for Lovin' You"?

Listen. I'm not an expert on such things. but that sounded more like kiss. Where does the disco come in?

reply

That's what people referred to as their stab at disco. I don't know if there was more.

reply

I didn't live through it so I don't know. I would've liked to experience the blow and scene back then. I read about a few stabs/movements that wanted to demolish disco. I'm not sure why, no one made them listen to it. I was taught how to drive a shift on a golf course while listening to disco. I see no reason why it should be abolished.

reply

There was a massive backlash around 1982, which was a shame, as it has quite a harmless genre.

reply

Even Rod Stewart had a stab at Disco with ‘Do You Think I’m Sexy’.

reply

Is that what that was? At least there's an explanation.

reply

It had the classic disco beat.

reply

He’s not kidding, they really did a ‘disco’ song.

reply

I knew this was coming, lol.
