Pillow Talk: The Moans and Groans and Intimate Pleasures of Disco

[remicks]

*****

Is there any denying all the sensual moaning and groaning that's a part of disco music's legacy??
A noteworthy element of its history wouldn't you say ?

So,
Can we come up with a comprehensive list of every disco song that includes this climatic component? :icon_mrgreen:

(((Seems like this type of thread should have been done already but I can't find such a thread by searching ....
(but then how does one search the topic anyway ?? )
But if anyone can find an existing thread maybe they can link it here.:icon_cool: )))

I chose PILLOW TALK to be in the heading because I think its' title not only makes the point ...
but was the song that gave the green light to the concept . .......... (?)
Sung so gently so sweetly by Sylvia .... only a total prude would hear it as distasteful !!:icon_razz:

And so the flood gate was opened! Let the moaning begin!! :icon_lol:





Of course a You Tube reference to these songs would always be great .... :icon_biggrin:
but by no means required. In many cases the music Nazis won't permit the actual versions to be shared amongst us anyway ,
songs such as :

Major Harris LOVE WON'T LET ME WAIT ... another innovator of the moaning genre....

(written by Bobby Eli guitarist in MFSB , Salsoul Orchestra, and The John Davis Orch)

karaoke version ( with moans! )


OK ...... name those tunes!!! :icon_mrgreen::icon_biggrin:

I'll start with the obvious....Donna Summer's Love To Love You Baby"--here in a live version with a sped-up beat...Donna looking great....maybe not as many moans and groans as in the actual record.....but fun to see






For the male counterpoint, my fave is Barry White's "Love's Serenade"...I can only find this version with a plus-size+ [yeah, I said "fat" first ] chick lip-synching!!! Just listen to Barry's murmuring bedroom talk..."...I don't need to see no panties"..."take off that brassiere, my dear." They don't write 'em like that anymore. Now it's "Bitch, Suck my muthaf**king d**k." Ah sweet nothings!!!

[markydefad]

This one is a moaning CLASSIC:

"Jungle Fever" - Chakachas

[markydefad]

Then we gotta add:

Millie Jackson's "ALL THE WAY LOVER"




Marvin Gaye's "SEXUAL HEALING"

live at The Grammys



or the recorded version/video:

Since I'm here anyway, why not add another couple of faves:

Rick James: "Make Love To Me"



Miss Diana Ross: "Sweet Surrender"

[PierreConstantin]

Miss Diana Ross: "Sweet Surrender"

Mmm, always loved "Sweet Surrender", kind of "Love hangover" part 2.

When I was a teenager the moanings in the middle section of Summer's "Prelude to love/Could it be magic" used to make me so uncomfortable. Apparently it's the same for Summer in this tv version :icon_biggrin:.

TV version:


The lp version (with "everything"):

I knew there was a reason I liked you--a man of impeccable taste! :icon_lol: Back in '77, WGCI here in Chicago used to play the entire 9:35 version (probably to give the DJ a bathroom/smoke break). Imagine hearing that song come through your radio speakers--no pun intended. Sublime!

thanks and likewise I'm sure :icon_mrgreen: ...seems to always get overlooked , but that whole album = :icon_cool: :icon_cool: :icon_cool:

This one has to have the shortest romantic interlude on record ....and wouldn't you know it .....from the man's perspective

If you leave the room between 4:08 and 4:15 .....you've missed it!!



is he displeased with his own lack of stamina?? It seems immediately after that he's frustratingly commanding some "body" to "Get up! Get UP! Get UP! :icon_mrgreen:

a prerecording

[discokicks]

Giorgio's Knights In White Satin album seemed to go for round two after Donna's Love To Love You Baby romp...lotsa moans, groans and other, um, aural pleasantries...specially on Oh L'amour...ooh la la...those male sighs of pleasure and approval.....would love to have been in the clubs when this played BITD!

And then of course there's the infamous I Wanna Funk With You Tonight...such a disco classic but also so wonderfully sensual and naughty..."it's alright...we'll funk all night" she moaned......remind me again what it was about disco that white hetero boys hated so much?!? :icon_confused:

[JussiK]

YouTube - gretchen - freak le boom boom.

Yes, it's GRETCHEN from Rio De Janeiro, with her 1979 classic "Freak Le Boom Boom"!

and here she is still freaking and boombooming around the room 30 years later:
YouTube - gretchen Freak le Bum bum

and what about the legendary Cicciolina aka Ilona Staller, and her "Muscolo Rosso" - giggled, sighed and moaned in Italian, with words like "cazzo" and "culo" repeated cheefully over and over again.

YouTube - Muscolo rosso

while you're at an Italianate mood check out the absolutely ravishing Gloria Guida and her fab "Musica E" from the grand disco finale of "Infirmiera di Notte" (1978). The film is available on dvd!!
