NOTES:

The roots of Disco and more. A super selection of full versions. Magnum Opus is a highly recommended double CD set. The only real downer here is the horrible song, The Crown.

Reader Comments on Magnum Opus

 

Yes, all correct. Except "The Crown" Awful song?! Perhaps you have not listened to the lyrics, it ant-racist, about Black Power (I am white). An excellent tune. And was a big hit at the time.

What? The crown a horrible song? It's the main reason I bought this terrific set! One of the few places where it can be enjoyed in its full 10+ minutes glory. This Stevie Wonder penned and produced song has an irresistible groove. I can see why some people might think the chorus is a bit repetitive, but this thing was made for fonk'n!

Otherwise, a very enjoyable set if you grew up with seventies and eighties dance music and, like me, have been searching for some of these 12" versions for a long time.
