Wasn't "Fly too high" a Giorgio Moroder production ? i can't find my 7" of it at the moment. The other couple of tracks i have by her are downtempo folk/rock things.

Janice had two non-dance hits.

"Society's Child" in the 60's and "At Seventeen" in the 70's.

Ms. Ian was a "folkie" who only once entered the dance market with FLY TOO HIGH from the Jodie Foster movie "FOXES"; score by Mr. Moroder; song credited to Ms Ian & Mr. Moroder. Love this one!!!:D:D:D

I'm not too crazy about this type of disco - not the synth aspect, but the shuffle groove. I don't find it as danceable as a straight beat.

not disco of course, but 'At Seventeen' is one of the loveliest records ever. Beautiful.

Foxes is quite a decent movie. It evokes the period pretty well too.
