The Greatness of Kitsch

VAN McCOY & THE SOUL CITY SYMPHONY the hustle (David Kust Remix) 

Ooh what a disco sound

 Something to lift the mood up as we enter winter...

THE GIBSON BROTHERS ooh what a life (1979 Official Audio)  

Wonderful Wonder

Stevie Wonder's 1982 classic hit "Do I do" in 12 inch extended version, with jazz legend Dizzy Gillespie at the trumpet and SW himself at the harmonica. One of the greatest piece of funk ever released, for me on par with Michael Jackson's "Don't stop till you get enough" (posted on this blog). The last 2min. see SW rapping on the beat. Genius...

Queen of the world

 Sheila (with her band "B Devotion") is the only french singer for whom Bernard Edwards & Nile Rodgers, founders of the legendary funk band CHIC, have written & produced an LP ("King Of The World" - 1980). Along with Claude Francois, also from France (and others, like Patrick Juvet and of course Sweden's ABBA), she made disco mainstream in Europe in late 70s. 2 titles: "Your Love Is Good" & the arch classic "Spacer", where the "Chic Sound" is unmistakable. And it's Nile Rodgers himself at the guitar...

Funk You!

Cool is timeless

One of the coolest piece of funk ever released, from the people who made 2 other unforgettable classics
