In praise of disco/disco-funk

I must say....

The year I was born, combined with the year prior and after had perhaps some of the BEST party music of it's era.

The last few weeks I've been listening to the late 70's disco/disco-funk, and it's f'ing top-notch.

Here's a sampling... Get ready to boogie, shake and move!

------------------------------------------

Instant Funk - I Got My Mind Made Up (1978)

Sparkle - Handsome Man (1979)
http://www.tunes.co.uk/tunes/ram/sparkle_man01.ram

Bunny Sigler - By The Way You Dance (1979)
http://www.tunes.co.uk/tunes/ram/sparkle_man02.ram

Billy Nichols - Give Your Body Up To the Music (1978)
http://mp3.juno.co.uk/MP3/SF88020-01-02-01.mp3

EDIT: This is little-Graham's doing. He told me about the disco and the disco-funk, but I was blind. Now I see. It is goooooood!

I would love to hear the Paradise Garage / Salsoul sound on a proper sound system.

Lets try to touch base while in Miami make a date to meet up at this part before we both head to Calderone/Vibe @ Crobar.

I'll PM you my mobile #.

Disco sound has been popular lately. Time to resurrect.
