Funky, remember the song but who is it by? Love the synth solo at around 3.30 brilliant, always amazes me how many one hit wonders there are that you forget then somehow you get to hear it or remember it and youre transported back about 30 yrs, great.

Disco...I know I'm too young for "pure" disco, but every disco I have been to has not been without The Killers. Just sayin' Not sure school discos count though!

[yt]aWK_Josc0Og[/yt]

If the answers yes, do I then have permission to serve up gorgeous slabs of Afrobeat, Highlife and all points in between from 70's/80's Africa ?

 

[Hiney]

Do it!!

Terrible lip-synching but the key change in this immense. My fave bit is the .....WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

[yt]pdPA2sEfBdo[/yt]

This....well...this is just what happens when you give disco to pasty face white folk from places like Scarborough. Disco is disco, I suppose. What is the drummer wearing?...she had a great voice though

[yt]U9U-wb_bVGk[/yt]

Time to rescue my credibility with the Spinners. This is a beautiful song. Truly timeless
