   Tampa Bay, Florida was home to Harry Wayne Casey, but the world new him better as KC & The Sunshine Band. Together they developed the 'Tampa' sound which could be heard in every disco during the mid 70's

   1977, marked the big 'boom' in disco's in Europe, partly because of the film, 'Saturday Night Fever', I even witnessed a,'dance like John Travolta' class, in a disco that I worked at in Norway, unbelievable to watch.

   We were all dressed up in big collar shirts, velvet jackets, high waisted flared trousers, and platform shoes, (and that was just the guys !). Now turn on the music to get the feel of the disco 70's.

   What can you say about this track, that hasn't already been said. Anybody that went to the clubs in the 60's & 70's has their own special memories of this great soul record. Ps. Great key change half way through.

   Great version of a Sam Cooke classic, recorded live in London, 1967. When I hear this, I'm back in the 'Gretna Hall', Carlisle, England. It's Friday night and the 'gang's a bopping', ah great times.

   If 'Soothe Me' reminded me of Friday nights, then this track has to be the Saturday nights in the 'Cosmo Ballroom', Carlisle, UK. Paid on Friday, broke on Monday, but we survived.

      As with all the other sections, I could put hundreds of songs in here if I had the room, alas I don't. So here are a few that I've danced to over the years. Disco songs were never intended for easy listening in front of a computer, so you'll just have to use your imagination for the lighting effects and atmosphere.

   Three brothers out of Cincinnati scored a big hit for Tamla Motown with this one. By the time I was in the clubs, this was already a classic.

   Another soul classic from my 'Raver' days , Wrangler cords, Lambretta scooter, and sweet soul music, what more could you want.

   If James Brown was the 'Godfather' of soul, then Aretha Franklin was surely the 'Godmother'.

    This is the song from which 99% of all the guys in the UK learned how to speak their first French words. The answer was usually a slap in the face or simply 'non'.
