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

    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!

    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

    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).

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

    Graham,



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

    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.

    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."
    Find them and destroy them!

    I have a few songs that comes to mind right away with no particular ranking.



    Dan Hartman & Loletta Holloway - Vertigo/Relight my fire

    Geraldine Hunt - Can't fake the feeling

    Gayle Adams - Love fever



    ....and then of course everything that Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards had their hands on.



    I will probably come up with a bunch more songs a minute after i've posted this but that's how it always is since there is so much good disco music.
