More Info
Disco was the original equal opportunities genre - it's true that a Disco classic could come from anywhere, from anybody. Rock bands such as The Rolling Stones, Kiss and Toto piled in on the Disco craze, Broadway stars, Country & Western stars, New Waves acts (Hello, Blondie!), established Jazz and Blues stalwarts, European TV stars, Hollywood actors... they all got on board the Disco train at one point or another. But the genre's true continuity came from its divas who, between them, delivered Disco's brightest stars (Donna Summer, Grace Jones, Gloria Gaynor, etc.), and the largest proportion of its best-loved classics. 'Disco Discharge: Disco Ladies' celebrates those women whose voices elevated the genre and continue to soundtrack many a throwback party, queer club dancefloor, family wedding and housewarming shindig to this day. Collected here are some true landmarks of the Disco Ladies' contribution - from Andrea True Connection's 'More, More, More' to Silver Convention's 'Get Up and Boogie (That's Right)' in all their full-length glory, as well as buried treasures you NEED in your life from the likes of Amanda Lear, Suzi Lane, Vicky D and Poussez!.
