When it comes to the classic disco/disco house sounds that I assume most people here are thinking of, most of them were actually sampled directly from the original records. With permission from the copyright owners of course (er... I think). I don't think that there are specific tracks that the majority of samples came from, in the same sense as something like the Amen break. Almost any old jazz/funk hits will have some good material.
Sample CDs with jazz/funk/disco actually used to be fairly common when samplers themselves were common (hardware samplers, that is), but they're hard to find in the sea of [Kont|Komp|Int]akt rubbish. I once met some distant family member who was a mainstream producer/studio jock and had stacks of hundreds of these CDs. Too bad that was before I got into production, I don't even really remember who it was.
If you look for the Akai/E-mu format sample CDs from a decade ago you will likely find something good. Where you would actually look for these today, I have no idea.
