A last word about Disco…

…then back to the terrorist horror.

DAVE SEGAL:

“Be suspicious of wholesale condemnations of any genre. Believe it or not, there is good disco.”

DAVE SCHMADER:
“Dave’s right, and I imagine (hope) that Sean was referring to the crap-disco that ruled in the very very late ’70s, when every idiot with a record deal was taking a whack at a disco track.”

Once again, my colleagues’ musical assiduousness punctures my attempt at childish humor. My favorite disco track is, obviously, “Arrow Through Me,” from Paul McCartney’s last record with Wings, Back To The Egg.
