I thought from the title of this post that it was a quiz.
So let me turn it into one: Does anyone know why "Alive and Kicking" might be relevant to this site...?
Yet another old tape of one of my Friday nights in '86, that prooves beyond doubt that Disco music was still in the groove.
O.K. it was more funk orientated, but hey, what's wrong with that?
Madonna - True Blue (a request doubtless)
Janis Ian - Fly too High (what a track from '79)
Change - Searchin' (A UK anthem in '80)
Ready for the World - Oh! Sheila
Evelyn King - High Horse
Cameo - Word Up
BarKays - Sexomatic
Zeus - Every one a winner?
Incredible Mr. Freeze - Back to the Scene of the Crime
Wally Jump Jr. - Jump Back
Paul Hardcastle - 19
Colonel Abrahams - I'm Not Gonna Let You
MC Miker G. - Holiday Rap

Michael McDonald - Sweet Freedom (on video, complete with wacky intro dialogue mixed under the previous Midnight Star track. We had to play 3 videos per hour by order of the management. This could sometimes be difficult, but amazingly I even managed to do some half decent mixes. In the early days of video the soundtracks were so bad, I used to mix the 7" in sync with the video soundtrack, easy once the absolute speeds were lined up together).

\"...a once in a lifetime feeling that returns every week...\"
I titled it that way 'cos a lot of posters here have written that Disco had died by 1980 (or '82 at the latest). Hence my premise that it was still 'alive and Kickin' even in '86.
and the Jeopardy answer is:
Tommy James discovered this group and gave them their first hit and only big hit in 1970, called, "Tighter, Tighter"
I Believe In The Boogie, But Lovin\' Is Really My Game.
True, DanceMan, but keep going...
