“Saturday Night Live” starring John Travolta was more than a period piece of the 70’s. It was a celebration of the Disco music era. In the early 70s, soft and classic rock was beginning to take shape, yet Disco pulled the car off the road and for nearly a decade, crowding out other genres. Although no one talks about Disco anymore, here are the songs from that era that we believe were great songs regardless…

“I Will Survive” by Gloria Gaynor proved the ladies could get up and dance and became an anthem for the underdog.

“Staying Alive” by the Bee Gees came from the John Travolta movie and solidified the Bee Gees as the disco kings of this really bad genre.

“That’s the Way I Like It” “Get Down Tonight” and “Boogie Shoes” by KC and the Sunshine Band were so well produced that they still sound great today.

“Super Freak” and “Give it to Me Baby” by the late Rick James combined funk and disco and the lyrics are timeless.

“Hang On In There Baby” by Johnny Bristol, “Can’t Get Enough of Your Love Baby” by Barry White, and “Love to Love You Baby” by Donna Summer were songs that could have hit the charts regardless of when they were released.
