| Funky Dude, you hit it right on the money. A lot of people here mention the top 40's of Disco but forget the Disco of the early 70's. You're knowledge of Disco music is probably the best I've seen on this site. There was a hell of a lot more to Disco, but for whatever reason a lot of people here concentrate on Disco after the mid 70's. |

Fausto Papetti has been a flute artist, he made covers of a lot of hits. I think he released more than 60 LPs all with hit covers, except some tracks by himself. Anyway I think we cannot include Fausto Papetti in the Disco scene.
