Lets see your fave tune from the decades that are now known as club classics.

Nice tunes there ... I was a bit before that, more disco stuff. One track that I love but just doesn't cut the mustard on the floor is Crown Heights Affair's You gave me love. Belting track for me and probably ONLY me!

great list Ray.

I was only 9 years old in 1980 and although i love some funky disco it wasnt my era and i struggle to find whats what. I now relaise that i have many of those tracks but they very rarely get aired as people just dont like straying from the safety of the well known tracks.

I like the Crown Affair track DJ Silver but again i doubt it will ever get played.

Great track. I've never found it to be particularly well received.

However it's on Classic Cuts Disco and Classic Cuts compilations are usually made up of known floor fillers.

Agreed. Fantastic track, but a floor clearer

Yes great tracks if only you could play them today (apart from a specialist night) I remeber them all well and used to love playing them.

I've found there's usually a few soul boys and girls lurking around at most of the parties I do (not specialist nights, but a lot of 40th birthdays type do's rather than 18th parties). I usually try one or two of the most popular ones to test the water and see who gets up to dance, more often than not I get a good reaction and can play more - there's nothing like 'I Found Lovin' and a full dancefloor!

Especially if you've got the bottle to sing the Steve Walsh version over the top if it's going REALLY well!

I do a show with a mate on Morpher Radio every week. We get to play all the track we loved from the 70's and 80's with other tunes we think fit.

And I have the bottle lol have been doing it for years with my own spin. Had the pleasure to work with the late great Steve Walsh on a Radio London Soul Night Out way back when I was on the Thames Party boats back in the day.

The Radio London Soul Nights were great fun - nice one.
I could just about pick up Radio London on my car radio in Southampton some days - I was a record company rep at the time (alongside my DJ'ing) and used to listen every day - Tony Blackburn in the morning, Robbie over lunch and into the afternon - then home for a kip before working in the evening ;o)

Ray,

Just been playing through your playlist. Great tooons !!

Will play a few at the next opportunity when the average age on the dancefloor is right.

Time for Disco to make a comeback methinks..
