Free Music Notes for Disco Nights, Vol. 4: Disco Groups
Free Music Review: good--as far as it goes, that is (three and one-half stars)
Hit: 4 Stars
Disco Nights, Vol. 4: Disco Groups has good music; but just as another reviewer notes they have edited several of these tracks for some reason I can't quite understand. The quality of the sound is good; and the artwork is nice. Unfortunately, I am somewhat disappointed with this album because too much editing was employed before they released this CD. Nevertheless, what we do get is great quality--I just wish there were more of it!
The Trammps start the CD off with their smash hit entitled "Disco Inferno;" this tune really IS one of the greatest disco tunes of all time and The Trammps were born to sing this song! "Disco Inferno" is also excellent dance music even today; and The Trammps harmonize well as they sing this one out strong--I love it! Lipps, Inc. does "Funky Town" with lots of feeling and the strings section is used very well. "Funky Town" has a great beat and Lipps, Inc. delivers this without a superfluous note. "Funky Town" naturally has that great funky `70s beat to it and this is another prime example of good `70s disco dance music.
The Weather Girls also perform their cult hit, "It's Raining Men." I once saw a picture of The Weather Girls performing this number live. The two women, previously known as Two Tons Of Fun, were decked out in elaborate pink dresses while scantily clad muscle hunks paraded about the stage in back of them--what a hoot! The Weather Girls had several hits but without a doubt their biggest success was "It's Raining Men." The Village People also do a fine job on one of their biggest hits called "Y.M.C.A.;" "Y.M.C.A." was popular with guys even after they discovered that The Village People were representing an alternative lifestyle.
Tavares has a very pretty melody with their "Heaven Must Be Missing An Angel;" this is also great music for dancing and the lush musical arrangement really works well for this number. In addition, A Taste Of Honey makes good on "Boogie Oogie Oogie;" "Boogie Oogie Oogie" is more classic disco and that's awesome!
The Hues Corporation does one of my very favorite disco tunes called "Rock The Boat;" they sing and play this to perfection--and beyond! The Hues Corporation really has a good beat going on with this number and "Rock The Boat" is a highlight of this album. There's also K.C. And The Sunshine Band doing "Get Down Tonight;" so many people were surprised when they found out that K.C. was a young white boy with long hair!
The CD ends with yet another excellent tune, "Native New Yorker" performed by Odyssey. Odyssey does "Native New Yorker" really, really well and it was always one of my very favorite disco dance tunes.
Overall, Disco Night, Vol. 4: Disco Groups has great music although several tracks have been trimmed down by an editing process that really screams "ouch!" This is a fine introductory CD for newcomers to this type of music; diehard fans will want more substantial CDs and box sets for sale on this website.
