Default Absolute Best

Here I hope to discuss some of the BEST songs we love to play or hear when we are in a club.
I would like to start this thread with one of my all time favorites - -
Doctor Love - First Choice - Salsoul Records

YouTube - First choice/Dr love(uncut mix 8:19)

Somewhere during this thread I will publish a list of my all time favorites. There is many more to come. I would like to know from you, some of your favorites that you think are the "Best". A song that gets you up no matter where you are.

Front Page: Love Insurance



Everybody knows that I love "Love Insurance" by Front Page with Sharon Redd on vocals. Perfect blend of all the Disco goodness you can cram into a 12" single!

Mine is an easy one... It has got to be I feel love by Donna Summer.

It`s in a league of its own as far as I`m concerned.

Bernie - I agree about Love insurance - what a fantastic song.Not only that but the sound on the Panorama 12in was fantastic !!!

nice to see what songs turn on our fellow disco fans.

My list is fairly soulful than euro, but then again, that probably says more 'bout me than the actual song list

1. Heaven Must Be Missing An Angel (Tavares)
2. Turn the Beat Around (Vicki Sue Robinson)
3. Kung Fu Fighting (Carl Douglas)
4. If My Friends Could See Me Now (Linda Clifford)
5. Hot Line (Sylvers)
6. Dr. Love (First Choice)
7. I Caught Your Act (Hues Corporation)
8. When You're Young And In Love (Ralph Carter)
9. Full Time Thing (Whirlwind)
10. The Night The Lights Went Out (Trammps)

Thanks Bernie. I'm still not getting how to do that embedded thing. I did check out your FAQ on youtube embedding but I guess I need it spelled out kindergartner style for me to get it.
