I have a a feeling about disco, I think many of the people who knock it today were lined up outside the movie theater in the mid 70s waiting to get into Saturday night fever. or shaking there asses at places like Studio 54. Me, I was a fan & scored a lot of ass back then (Sorry Lillie).

Now don't be sorry Rick, in the late 80's I was at Streets in New Rochelle with my fake ID doing the same thing. :bgrin:
 
Disco: I thought it sucked, was in Europe when the craze got started, still in vogue when I came back to the States. Found the Disco Music Fans to be as phony and plastic as the genre itself.
 
Disco always sucked. Greasy hair dudes with fake hair chests . White jacket, pants and stupid shoes. Aqua Velva applied in pints all over themselves. I hated it because I was always a Rock guy. Bass players like myself appreciated the octive and hammer on tricks but all along we thought of it as an adult spit on a kids head. KC had his blood sucked out due to his formaldyhyde skin texture. Coke freaks and flashy creeps for sure..... :beatinto::smiley-smiley-049:
 
Robert Palmer!!!!! Power Station Androgenous chicks. Trick Bag. What a travisity The Hall of Fame Is Bogus. The polka band hall of fame would be more legit!
 
I wore my "Death Before Disco" shirt with pride. Upon my return from Germany in '77 I got stationed at Carlisle Barracks Pa. Was not happy finding that all the clubs in the local area to include Harrisburg featured Disco. Did find a club in Lancaster 55 miles away that still had rock bands coming in on the weekend. The drive was worth it, much preferred dancing to the Rock & Roll as opposed to that tinny sounding Disco Shit.
 
Michael I also prefer music of the 50s & 60s, I would take it over any other type of music all day BUT, Mid 70s was a new thing called disco that took off & I have to admit I enjoyed a lot of it. I'd rather my Duprees, Earls, Jive five, Platters etc but I could hit a disco from time to time. As a matter of fact I was at the disco on bell blvd in Queens the night Son of Sam struck in 77.

...yeah, hell, Winwood was probably only about 18 when he played at Woodstock...he is/was a great talent. Kinda strange hoe the RRHOF does things, he was good enough to get in as a member of Traffic but not really recognized for the Spencer Davis Group, much less his solo career.
...same with Carol King, she was inducted for her early works with Gerry Goffin as a songwriter/non-performer but was not recognized as a performer and Tapestry which IMO is one of the top albums of all time, is not even mentioned.
 
Yeah Lillie, when I heard what time he shot that couple I couldn't believe that my girl & I had left the parking lot just over a 1/2 hour before he struck. I'm glad we were in a hurry that morning to get home.
 
Speaking of being petrified, as soon as I typed that comment my electricity went out for no apparent reason. Only in Florida. BTW Rick stop trying to make me jealous.
