      If I've heard correctly wasn't this like the first Disco hit, wasn't it?......I remember a documentary about Disco and I remember this song being a big deal because it was the drummer that came up with what they called the 4 on the Floor drum beat, which was for 4 beats per measure with the base drum (the floor pedal) drum and prior to that almost every song was beats on 1 and 3 or 2 and 4 ...but that 4 on the floor was 1 2 3 and 4, and that really became what made disco distinct from RnB was that 4 beats per measure.

    • @androlibre9661

      I just went down a mini youtube rabbit hole because I couldnt remember exactly, but this wasn't the first Disco hit but the drummer's for the Tramp's name is Earl Young, and he is credited for inventing the four on the floor beat pattern (as it was used in Disco), and there's a clip on TH-cam "Earl Young Explains his Revolutionary Disco Beat" and the man himself explains it.....and damn what that man can do with a set of drums

    • @colibri1
      @colibri1 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      That is absolutely true. From House to Hi-NRG to a lot of Techno to today's beats, it all has its origin in that 4-on-the-floor, metronomic seventies disco beat. You tell some people that and they disagree, but it's true. Seventies disco was the first "beats per minute" music.

I danced with 19 guys one night, no strings attached, because dancing is what we came there for. One club had rock upstairs and disco downstairs, and the floors were connected with a big spiral slide. What a hoot! When you heard the opening to this song, you made a beeline for the dance floor!

But, let me tell you, this song was one of THE most popular song in the dance clubs. So, we had a local restauranteur who had a few restaurants with lighted, colorful floors that people could dance on. It was great. But, yeah, this song along with many others are still played a lot in stores and coffee places. KC, Donna Summer. Yup!

    This song is definitely in the top 3 of best disco songs ever made. Other songs you can react to from this genre are GEORGECMCCRAE with ROCK YOUR BABY. This song is thought of as the first true disco hit that introduced the world to the genre. Then you have the song DON’T LEAVE ME THIS WAY. This was originally sung by HAROLD MELVIN AND THE BLUE NOTES but I prefer the version by THE COMMUNARDS as you get a great dance track which is a bit more 80’s. Then there’s EDWIN STARR who had several great songs WAR, CONTACT and THATS THE WAY. Finally one of the best is AMII STEWART with KNOCK ON WOOD.

    True story (If you care to read)…
    I was DJing multi state in the ‘80s and ‘90s. Block parties and more. I hit everyone with a vast span of music, you just never knew what was coming next from my 3 1200 turntables. Anyways, I’m performing a set and people starting screaming. And they wouldn’t stop. I’m thinking, man they are really digging the music. Turns out they’d been trying to get my attention 😂. There was a candle on the table that caught my table on fire. I hurried and put the fire out, and what did I drop next?! You got it: Disco Inferno. The crowd went wild. Wild! And we partied for a few more hours non-stop until everyone was exhausted. That period of time was unmatched. You did grow up in the wrong era.

Hearing it takes me right back to some great childhood memories! It was a magical time to be alive. So we’re the 80’s when I was a teenager. Kids today don’t have it as good as we did back then.
