Continued from yesterday.
9. You're My First, the Last, My Everything-- Barry White-- 1974-- just sex on vinyl
8. Don't Stop 'Till You get Enough-- Michael Jackson-- 1976-- Before he went strange
7. Dancing Queen-- Abba-- 1976-- their biggest hit
6. YMCA-- Village People-- 1978-- still a great song to get people of all ages going, despite the gay aspect. Put those arms down, NOW!!
5. Celebration-- Kool and the Gang-- 1980-- Not bad for a throwaway song. If this doesn't get the folks out on the dance floor, I'm no sure what else will. I'd like to know how many weddings have had this song played.
4. Play That Funky Music-- Wild Cherry-- 1976-- Grew out of a black audience member yelling to the band, "Play some funky music, white boy!" Their only hit, but a good one.
3. Last Dance-- Donna Summer-- 1978
2. I Will Survive-- Gloria Gaynor-- 1978-- probably one of the all-time greatest disco hits.
1. Staying Alive-- Bee Gees-- 1977-- A big surprise with the song that kicked it all off.

Being an account of some things I'm interested in, what I'm doing, and reflections on my past, especially music.
Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.
