Best disco and funk songs done by a rock artist

[Funky Dude]

During the disco era as you all know a lot of rockers had a crack at doing disco as well and a lot dominated the charts too. Anyhow from what the rockers released for disco and funk here's my list of what I consider the best disco and funk songs from a rock artist:

Funk:
Rolling Stones - Hot Stuff 1976 (SO FUNKY!!!)
David Bowie - Fame/Golden Years/We're The Young Americans 1975
Skyhooks - Party To End All Parties 1977
Silver Studs - Funky Feet 1977
Roxy Music - Love Is The Drug 1975

Disco:
Mud - Shake It Down 1976
Glitter Band - Makes You Blind 1975
Wings - Goodnight Tonight 1979 (I LOVE THOSE CLAPPING STICKS!!!)
John Paul Young - The Day That My Heart Caught Fire 1978
Boz Scaggs - Lowdown 1976

So what do you's consider the best funk and disco songs from a rock artist?

Some more I forgot to mention in the disco section are:

Sparks - Beat The Clock 1979
In Dury & The Blockheads - Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick 1978 (Go the double sax playing)
Jonathon King - One For You, One For Me 1978 (I love those rainbow coloured clown afros they were wearing on Top Of The Pops)

I love the Elton John's version of "Are you ready for love?".

But don't forget "Don't stop the music" by the Bay City Rollers, "Let me take you dancin'" by Bryan Adams, "Streetplayer" by Chicago, "Don't let go" by Tony Orlando, "LOVE" by Demis Roussous, "One chain" by Santana

Also "Jeopardy" (Greg Kihn Band), "Abracadabra" (Steve Miller Band), "Too much information" (The Police), "World of today" (Supermax)... and don't forget ELO

"One of These Nights" by the Eagles is awesome from beginning to end - my personal favorite rock-artist disco song. I also enjoyed "Miss You" by the Rolling Stones" and "Streetplayer" by Chicago.
