    To me, he missed the music: Lucky - Donna Summer
    I love this song, I hear every day:)

    ...and here's something that's missing from this chart:

    1 The Immortals - The Ultimate Warlord
    2 Suzi Lane - Harmony
    3 Lectric Funk - Shanghaied
    4 Donna Summer - Now I Need You
    5 Amanda Lear - Follow Me

    :-)

    I totally agree that Giorgio rocks in any shape or form, but I'm not too sure what are "Fly Robin Fly", "R&J" or "Jumbo", or indeed "C Minor" doing in this chart. Electro-disco they are most certainly not, whereas you can stick most disco tracks into a "synthesizer disco" category. A bit of a filtering here wouldn't go amiss.

    No love for Information society - "Running"?

    I should definitely choose:
    Megatron Man
    Menergy
    Do Ya Wanna Funk
    Funkytown
    I Feel Love
    as the best from those times !!

    Don't forget the British influence guys!

    Yazoo - Situation
    Human League - Being Boiled & Don't You Want Me
    Gary Numan - Are Friends Electric

    You've got Giorgio Moroder on here with E=MC2, but how can you leave out "Baby Blue," one of the first electronic synthesizer songs, using the computer synthesized voice? It was and is a classic. I'm surprised none of the present day artists has not copyed it or tried to emulate it, unless you consider Cher's "Believe" coming close.

    Guys,
    I would definitely add to this list the following:
    1) "Megatrone Man" - Patrick Cowley 2) "Do Ya Wanna Funk" (or "You Make Me Feel" as alternative) - Sylvester.
    3) "I'm Ready" - Kano
    4) "Music Express" - Supermax
    Being a DJ in early 80's I can tell you these electronic disco tracks rocked the crowd no less then Giorgio Moroder or Cerrone.

    What about Space or Kebekelectric "Magic Fly" and 'Lectric Funk "Shangaied?

    Boy, I have not thought about "Jumbo's"
    "Turn on to Love" for years. I can still hear the chorus. It went something like this....na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na, (big bass voice) turn on to love...I believe I wore out at least 2 copies of that record. I am glad to know that it is on somebody's list of favorite songs from the 70's. Two thumbs up!

    where's "numbers" by Kraftwerk?

     
     

  • gbnusic

    Why not consider Gino Soccio's Remember as a choice.
