Some people want to forget that there was a Disco era.
And who can forget that those years were the time of drugs and sex! (that’s possibly why some people want to forget too!) While I personally didn’t get into the drug habits or have wild sex with Tom, Dick, Harry or Susan…it was all around me, at the clubs, the music studios where I used to hang out and anywhere people were having a good time.
Two reasons why I loved those years were because it was kind of a time of liberation for me. I could date (finally!) and when I wasn’t dating I spent a lot of time with a group of people who were a lot of fun to be around. We were a pretty diverse group of guys and gals from all over the world.
And especially because of the music! The Bee Gees, Abba, Donna Summer, Gloria Gaynor, Blondie, The Village People…those were some of the music I used to love listening to and still to from time to time!
I also loved to dance (but my baby just love to dance, yeah, yeah) sorry…that song just popped into my head! LOL!
The day the music died though was a sad time indeed. Although when Disco died it was the birth of Rap music – old school rap that is..the Sugarhill gang, Run DMC, Kool Mo Dee to name a few.
Those Disco years were the best though….yes they were..."we gonna boogie til we just can't boogie no more...".
