I love disco music. I can't name every one, or every artist, but here are some I like:

I love all of the Bee Gees' disco music. (Here I feel compelled to point out that the Bee Gees are not just a disco group; they'd been famous for nine years before they made any disco songs.)

And The Beat Goes On - The Whispers

I like Earth, Wind and Fire's songs - September, Fantasy - and I think they're kind of disco.

That's the Way (I Like It) - KC and the Sunshine Band

Play That Funky Music - Wild Cherry

Dance Dance Dance - Chic

Ain't No Stopping Us Now - McFadden and Whitehead

Boogie Nights - Heatwave

I'm Coming Out - Diana Ross

Good Times - Chic

There It Is - Shalamar

Give Me the Night - George Benson

When Smokey Sings - ABC

There are loads more. I'll think of some more later on.

Good taste, JT. Brilliant minds think alike. I actually had some of your picks just miss my top 100 when I compiled it a couple of months ago. But I have to ask you, where's my #2 choice on your list?? You can't tell me you don't love that song!! (Or #1 for that matter)

[jacktripper1]

Just about all of it, really. The Bee Gees, KC & The Sunshine Band, etc. My wife loves disco, too. It's her favorite music!!

Oh, I can't believe I left off #1. I was just dancing my behind off to it on Music Choice a few days ago. That's definitely a fave.

I've never heard #2, but my god...everytime I turn on Classic Disco on Music Choice, it's going off and I get annoyed to death because I like the ten or twenty seconds of it that I hear. Classic Disco is just amazing...I try to fit in at least an hour of nonstop dancing to it to keep that heart rate up. A great channel for the well-known disco hits and a lot of the obscure stuff.

And I might be rambling on, but I have to say that I've been pretty in to Chic now for a few weeks. I have 3 of their songs on my computer and their style and tone...it's just so laid-back and smooth and I love it. "Good Times" and "I Want Your Love" are just...words cannot say how great they are.

[Penny Lane]

Dancing Queen- Abba Love that song!
