I'd say any french disco song goes in this forum no matter where it comes from.
Actually I prefer all Kate Ryan's versions over Mylene Farmer's original releases (Désenchantée, Libertine). Her latest remake of "Ella, elle l'a" is just a blast, take a look at this .. .. .. ..
If you buy this record your life, will be better.

how about:
jackie quartz "a la vie a l'mour"
i realize this might not be considered "disco" per se, but this and "emotion" were pretty popular in the late '80's.
The PWL mix of "a la vie" is spectacular to my ears at least.

Very interesting. Thanks, JussiK.
Do you think LL paved the way for Taco/Puttin' On The Ritz? They were both sort of stylized Art Deco dance dandies. (Extra credit if you can tell me where Taco is from.)

Taco is German singer born to Dutch parents in Indonesia. - Talking of Putting On The Ritz there is also a similar themed 1978 12" from France called "Hollywood Boulevard", by Marc Chantareau plus other members of the Voyage troupe. The record has two c. 6 minute long medleys of 30's Hollywood tunes like "42nd Street" and "Shanghai Lil", centered around an original theme. Kinda like Wing & Prayer Fife and Drum Corps with a heavier beat. Not bad but nothing too spectacular, either. But what about that "Carioca/The Continental" 7" by Valentine French, imo a more succesful euro attempt to revamp Hollywood sounds?

Very good!
I'll have to check out Hollywood Boulevard (and your webpage. If I can find time between watching my Noriko Show dvd.)

I hadn't heard this track until recently. It's a great remake! Man, the rhythm track is as good as Gaynor's version! I can't quite place it's production, but it sounds eerily like some of the late 70s Sigma stuff.

Oh the pain and the suffering of my favourite getting slagged by you oh '99 ! Sorry but I disagree: I love the originals...and let's hope that KR doesn't go to Sans Logique next..
