VARIOUS ARTISTS DISCO DISCHARGE: DISCO LADIES Limited Pink Vinyl 2LP Set
Overview:
First time on vinyl for this lovingly curated collection of 21 full-length and 12” versions of Disco
classics, originally released as part of the ‘Disco Discharge’ CD series in 2009.
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 bestloved 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.
‘Disco Discharge, Disco Ladies’ is also released as a 12-track 2LP on 140g Pink vinyl. Both formats come fully annotated with sleeve notes by Alan Jones, co - author of ‘Saturday Night
Forever: The Story Of Disco’
