Info

First time on vinyl for this lovingly curated collection of full-length and 12” versions of Disco classics, originally released as part of the ‘Disco Discharge’ CD series in 2010. Disco was always a broad church. As a genre it brought in elements from Motown and Philly, Pop, Latin, African, Musicals, Classical and even Rock. Even so, arguably the longest-lived iteration of Disco came from the Blues-originated ‘Boogie’ genre. Boogie was a flame that both provided the very basis of the Disco groove and outlasted the genre’s staggering late-’70s mainstream global takeover. With its blend of Soul, Jazz, Funk and R&B and with its name descending from street slang for – ahem – sweaty lovemaking, Boogie lasted well into the 1980s and beyond. It was was Disco in the raw: Boogie was fundamental.

Gathering together 20 exemplars of the sound, Disco Discharge: Disco Boogie provides a one-stop shop to Boogie heaven, and it features some of the biggest names of the genre, alongside some heinously forgotten classics.

Disco Discharge, Disco Boogie is also released as a 21-track 2CD in Deluxe Gatefold
Packaging. Both formats come fully annotated with sleeve notes by Alan Jones, co - author of ‘Saturday Night Forever: The Story Of Disco’.
