Welcome to the message board. By the way, my favorite disco song is "More, More, More" by the Andrea True Connection.

I have so many but I think I have to say Don't Leave me this way by Thelma Houston

**HustleBaby** · November 2nd, 2001, 09:33 PM

Groovin,

This is a VERY hard question! I cannot narrow

it down to 1 but I was able to give you my

top 7:

1.Favorite Eurodisco songs go to: From here to Eternity(Giorgio Moroder) & Brazil(Ritchie Family).

2.Cocomotion - El Coco

3.Let's do the latin hustle - Eddie Drennon

4.Freeman - South Shore Commission

5.Love Hangover - Diana Ross

6.Contact - Edwin Starr

Out of all the posts that I have participated

in, this was the HARDEST! But my all-time

favorite disco artist is Donna Summer and my

favorite of hers is "Try Me, I know we can

make it".

DELIGHTFUL!

"Ain't no stoppin' us now" by Mc Fadden & Whitehead is one of my favourite songs. But there are many more... your question is difficult to answer!

**NickNack** · November 5th, 2001, 01:53 PM

Welcome to the board, GGM. This is a fun but hard one to answer. I'll give a 'top five' but don't hold me to it. All could change tomorrow.

SOUVENIRS / FROM EAST TO WEST - VOYAGE

MAKIN' MUSIC (DUB MIX) - GARY'S GANG

DANGER - GREGG DIAMOND

LOVE HANGOVER - DIANA ROSS

LOVE IS THE MESSAGE - MFSB

Today, I'll say "This Will Be A Night To Remember" by Eddie Holman on SalSoul. The record transports me back to those wonderful all-night dancing days of the past. This was a high energy (approx. 136 BPM) peaktime assurance from the DJ that, yes indeed, you were gonna have a good time tonight and, hopefully, REMEMBER IT!!!

RUNNERS UP:

BEST "POPPER MUSIC" : "Evolution" by Giorgio Moroder (The sound of sleazy sex)

BEST FUNK WORKOUT: "Give It To Me Baby" by Rick James

BEST EURO: "I Feel Love" by Donna Summer

BEST DRAMA DIVA SONG: "Was That All It Was" by Jean Carn

BEST MORNING MUSIC: "More, More, More" by the Andrea True Connection (Don't know why I picked this--maybe because that break with the woodblock & cowbells makes my feet wanna dance); there are sooo many more in this category.

BEST EPIC PRODUCTION: "Vertigo/Relight My Fire" by Dan Hartman featuring Miss Loleatta Holloway. (Classic sweeping you off your feet drama & energy).

BEST "POPPER MUSIC" : "Evolution" by Giorgio Moroder (The sound of sleazy sex)

Poppers and Giogio and sleaze, oh my! (makes mental note to put this previously-thought-to-be-unremarkable track on tonight)

**markydefad** · November 5th, 2001, 03:08 PM

Graham,

Maybe an Al Parker video might be thrown into the mix of Giorgio & poppers & sleaze? Just a thought...(imaginary smiley face inserted here).

**markydefad** · November 5th, 2001, 04:11 PM

Graham,

One more thought...

I'm surprised to hear you say you didn't think much of "Evolution"; this was a key record at Trocadero. Steve Sukman, on his website at http://www.hyperactivemedia.com/5am/djs.htm analyzes Bobby Viteritti's style: "Bobby's signature sound was a 124 bpm disco guitar and bass-infused groove that had a moody, hypnotic and sexual energy to it". The sound clip he uses to demonstrate his point is "Evolution".

This was a guaranteed 5:00AM trip to sleaze on the dancefloor as I remember it.

**markydefad** · November 5th, 2001, 04:50 PM

Bernie, do ya think this growing thread from GGM should be moved to the "Discuss Disco Music" section? Just a thought, since the introduce yourself aspect has been superseded by the "favorite disco song" replies.

Hello GGm.

Very difficult choice.

Most times I would say, "Dance With You" or "What Can I Do For You" or "He's The Greatest Dancer."

**fellow** · November 8th, 2001, 01:59 AM

Lately I cannot get these out of my mind and have been playing them often:
