Yes I believe someone else did. But these guys were the originators. Of course made ultimately famous by Michael Jackson/Quincy Jones sample usage.

This is one of my favorite 60's soul songs. Gamble and Huff's first hit production.

That era of hip hop saw a few afrocentric acts emerge. X Clan was one of the prominent ones. This joint is on my classic hip hop playlist.

I'm actually going to see them in February in Detroit along with New Edition and Toni Braxton.

Well deserved for Josh. Smart signing for Seattle. They will be a force to be reckoned with in the next few years.

They have. But LA does get cooler in the winter than Miami does. I think doing the winter classic in either of those venues is silly. You want a winter classic to have cold and snow. Can you believe that in 17 years of doing this its never been hosted by a Canadian city? And only Canadian based...

I hope they do this one in concert as well. From their debut LP (1991) "Please Don't Go"

I can't wait I will be seeing them in concert early next year. This is my favorite slow jam from them

Disco -> Italo disco-> Post disco/Boogie -> House. This was the rough transition in the late 70's and early 80's. This track is a good example of the transition. Big in the New York clubs of early 80's. The only ESG song I knew of was "UFO" which I have posted before because of its importance to...

This is a group I've been meaning to delve into. The Crown Heights Affair. This is a cross of soul, funk and disco. "Dancin"

This has cross Philly soul/disco vibes. "Nobody Could Take Your Place"

Wow this definitely has that Philly soul sound. I can see the links to disco now. I don't know what it is about this guy's voice but its incredible to me. So unique yet so soulful.

Never heard this one before. I think they would classify this as post disco, even electronic. Thanks for sharing it.

I'm not sure I'd call this 'disco' its more house/dance than anything. Borne out of the disco movement mind you. I think I mentioned it before but this was the very first CD I ever owned.

From Madonna's first (and best) album. One of my favorites from her. MC Miker G and DJ Sven ripped it for their popular single "Holiday Rap" a couple of years later

Not sure if I agree that disco emerged in the late 60's. I think they claim its origins are found in the Philly soul movement. Others say that Soul Makossa is the first true disco recording. I think 1974 is the year disco started with songs like "Rock the Boat" by Hues Corporation, "People Gotta...

Definitely not disco sound but this is a great tune nonetheless. Same guy that sang "Sweet Soul Music"
