Reply With QuoteI always dug Philly International, Salsoul, and Prelude which are not really rare but in the soul/disco click. I truly believe the best songs are the ones that never crossover and hit between 5 and 50 on the Billboard R&B charts. Here's a list of some examples.
1)Pockets-Come and go with me
2)Slave-Stone Jam
3)Steve Arrington Hall of fame-Nobody can be you but you
4)Jeanette Lady Day-Come and let me love you
5)Dennis Coffee-Scorpio
6)Brass Construction-We can work it out
7)Unlimited touch-I hear music in the street
8)Bobby Thurston-Check out the groove
9)Linx-You're lying
10)Linda Clifford-Never gonna stop
11) Cavier-I'll never stop loving you
12)Xavier-Work that sucker to death
13)Fazo-Good thang
14)Pleasure-Glide
15)Skipworth and Turner-Thinking about your love
Disco music is much like kenburnsjazz in the idea that an outsider cannot conceptualize the whole thing with just reviewing big named artists. All of the artists I mentioned obtained their footing with related artists you probably know. Something's lost in the edits, remixes, and streamline comilations.
