5. That's the Way (uh huh, uh huh) I Like It - KC and the Sunshine Band (anything by these guys is really bad)
6. Ain't No Stoppin' Us Now - McFadden & Whitehead
7. Copacabana - Barry Manilow
8. Car Wash - Rose Royce

Now that I've made everyone cringe ;), I decided to find SOMETHING about Disco I liked. Here are some that I think are actually decent songs:

1. Billie Jean - MJ
2. I'm So Excited & Jump (For My Love) - Pointer Sisters
3. Turn the Beat Around - Vicki Sue Robinson (prior to Gloria Estefan)
4. September - Earth, Wind & Fire
5. Brick House - Commodores
6. Lady Marmalade - Patti LaBelle
7. Play That Funky Music - Wild Cherry
8. Conga - Miami Sound Machine


Larry, I'm not sure I agree with classifying all of these songs as "disco". Of your "best" list, the only one I would consider to be disco would be "Turn the Beat Around." The others fall variously into "pop", "r&b", or "Latin". Of course, my opinion along with 5 bucks, will just about buy you a cup of coffee. wink
