Best disco and funk songs done by a rock artist

[SandraDee]

There's a greatest hits CD of Le Pamplemousse available? Wow, where can I get it from? I've missed that one!

Today I listened again, after about 25 years(!!!), to a classic country rock record that all the djs here were playing a lot back then..... Rita Coolidge "You". Great memories!!!

By the way, nobody here mentioned another enormous club hit here in Italy. Pink Floyd "Another brick in the wall"

[SandraDee]

I always hated 'ABITW' by Pink Floyd; anything with kids singing has me running for the hills ASAP! :x

Here are some more to add to this already extensive list:

Dance with me - Orleans
Black cow - Steely Dan
Peg - Steely Dan
Evil woman - The Electric Light Orchestra
Fly like an eagle - The Steve Miller Band
Steppin' out - Joe Jackson
Freeze-Frame - The J. Geils Band
Centerfold - The J. Geils Band
Abacab - Genesis
Working for the weekend - Loverboy
I can't go for that - Hall & Oates
We got the beat - The Go-Go's
Hazy Shade of winter - The Bangles
Cruel Summer - Bananarama

and more recently:

Slide - The Goo-Goo Dolls

These songs along with many others made it into my record collection although I'm not a big rock fan. Obviously, Hall & Oates cannot be construde as a rock band. Some other notable "rock" artists who have put out more melodic R&B sounding music include:

Carole King
Seals & Croft
Neil Sedaka
Christopher Cross
Hamilton, Joe, Frank & Reynolds
The Little River Band
Pablo Cruise

to name a few. This thread refuses to die.

Easy,

Sam "ALL JAM"
