We Need Your Top Disco Songs & Quote for Upcoming Disco Video

[Bernie]

Hi all,

DiscoMusic.com member, MixMasterMax has kindly offered to assemble a DiscoMusic.com tribute video of sorts. Some of the things he'll need from members are your top three (or five) Disco songs and perhaps some catchy phrase(s) that best sums up Disco for you that can be included in the video. Also feel free to attach any Disco related photos of you and/or a disco era personality that you wouldn't mind being used in the video.

I'll start it off with...

Favorite Disco songs:
1. Front Page: Love Insurance
2. Love and Kisses: I've Found Love
3. El Coco: Cocomotion

Catchy phrase or quote:
"You Can't Kill the Beat"
"Disco, the roots of House, Rap and today's dance music"

While photos are completely optional, I'll attach some below.

Let's get 'em rolling folks!

A big thank you to MixMasterMax for offering to do this.

Bernie do you want us to post them here or send them to you?

[MixMasterMax]

It was easy for me offer to do this as I truly enjoy making the videos and appreciate what Bernie and discmusic.com offer and mean to Disco Dance music like having such a vast reference available at a click of the mouse.

What I offered to do is create a video that highlights not only the Disco era in terms of the music, relevant pictures and phrases that are associated with the Disco era but also discomusic.com which I and many others visit regularly and use as the single point of reference for the Disco era. Bernie and I could have easily picked the music and added some pictures to a video but it would be more meaningful if everyone had a chance to pick the music and provide visual aids. At this point I must say that all pictures, graphics and other materials provided may be used in the video and by providing this material you agree to this.

It would be great if you could provide the year of the tracks you mention. I would hate to end up with all the songs being released in the same year. The idea is to include music that is representative of the Disco year(s). I almost added the years I believe are Disco years but that would turn this thread in another direction.

Please provide the track names here (include year) and send Bernie the visual aids so he can place the discomusic.com logo on them prior to use in the video.

Truly appreciated,
Max

Sorry about not mentioning where to send photos. Do NOT post photos here... instead upload them with names, descriptions... at:
Upload Photos and Record Label/Cover Art: DiscoMusic.com
so this way I can cull them and give them to Max.

Of course, the list of songs can be posted here for all to see.

Always embodied fun & dancing;
