Best Disco Songs of the 1970s & 1980s

Second Story Philly DiscoDisco is a style of dance music with roots in R & B, Jazz, Latin and even Classical. It took the world by storm around 1972 and reached its peak around 1979. Disco continued into the 1980s by evolving into Hi-NRG on one front and House music on the other.

Retro Disco Fever

DJ Frankie Who of Second Story in PhiladelphiaIt's the '70s or '80s and you're out dancing to the sounds of such DJs as Steve Thompson, Larry Levan of the Paradise Garage, David Mancuso of The Loft, John "Jellybean" Benitez of The Funhouse, John Ceglia of River West, Robbie Leslie of The Saint or perhaps Bobby Viteritti of Trocadero Transfer...

The songs of Vincent Montana Jr., Patrick Adams, Donna Summer, Alec R. Costandinos, Chic or the newest Salsoul Records release fills the air as the DJ is mixing back and forth on the Technics SL-1200 tunrtables between vinyl 12 inch Disco singles and albums that proudly proclaim that they are remixed by Tom Moulton, Walter Gibbons, Jim Burgess, John Morales or John Luongo. You love to dance and listen to music, it's a part of your life. Forget the Disco MP3 downloads or samples and loops in today's House music-this is the real deal. It's the real Disco style we all love from the Seventies and Eighties.
