yes I know but that is where disco came from, and the lines can be pretty blurry when talking about records like those. listening to the shorter radio mixes of salsoul records is not that different. and those records were hits on disco dancefloors, especially the latter.

Hell you can certainly include the entire SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER soundtrack (I saw the whole movie for the first time in class last week, I should start a thread on um, whether its a "good" movie) ...didn't anyone mention DISCO INFERNO or the BeeGees MORE THAN A WOMAN yet ?
What about DEEE-LITE - GROOVE IS IN THE HEART...we can move out of just 70s here, right?

Disco, more so than any genre apart from Americana, is hardly above camp.

- a good portion of Larry Levan's Live at the Paradise Garage ("My First Mistake," "It's Music," "Bourgie Bourgie," "Put Your Body In It," and "Bad Mouthin")- Patrick Juvet's "I Love America"... there's just something irresistible about a song by (probably?) gay immigrants (Belolo, Morali) gushing uncontrollably about how great America is; more believably patriotic than practically any country song, and deeply sad, when lyrics like "the people there were so friendly, I have good memories still" are considered against the very different, very impending Reagan era.- Funkadelic's "(not just) Knee Deep"... the full album version, for having a yowlingly great guitar break- Donna Summer's "Could It Be Magic" has about the most divine bridge ever (though I could've personally done without the umpteenth Donna orgasms on the top of it)- agreed re: "Native New Yorker," which sounds like every advertisment I ever saw in the archives of Life Magazine c. 1976- many many more... disco is one of my favorite genres.
