Disco music did not die on July 12, 1979, there was still disco hits in 1980 and 1981. Disco music really died in 1981. However, I think that the demolition in Chicago in 1979, started a major downward trend and it was dying, but did not fully die until the summer of 1981. The demolition was the catalyst and start of stigma and the death of the music.
I think that in Chicago it died in 1979, but in Philly and New York it didn't really die until 1981. Lost popularity sooner in the Midwest of the United States
