Club Countdown's Top 18 of 1978! (& More!)

[discodoc]

I finally obtained the final tracks needed to complete 1978, and I think it turned out GREAT! 1978 may very well be the biggest year in dance music history, as each of the top 7 songs could easily be among the top 20 of most all-time lists. "Stayin Alive" is my choice as the biggest of all-time (sorry Ms Gaynor). Not my personal favorite (not even top100 really), but IMO the most influential, the biggest of the big hits. Not many realize tho that "Night Fever" was #1 on Billboard's Hot 100 for 7 weeks, while "Stayin Alive" managed "just" 4 weeks on top. My faves on this set include "Copacabana," "Night Fever" and the 12" remix of "Boogie Oogie Oogie," which I consider to be one of the best original remixes directly from the 70's (fantastic break!). The Real Rapino Remix of "I Love The Nightlife" is a fantastic updated remix. Also, I've noted below the additions/changes I've made to the 1979 mix.
