| | Disco Nights, Vol. 2: The Best Of Disco Funk CD (1 Customer Review)
Featuring a dozen of the best bubblegum hits from the late '70s, this compilation makes for nice lightweight listening. Some songs, such as Parliament's dancefloor classic "Flashlight," still sound as good now as they did the first time around. Others, such as "Shake Your Groove Thing" by Peaches & Herb, make perfect background noise at keg parties and wedding receptions. Ultra-smooth soul kings Marvin Gaye and Isaac Hayes each contribute a track. Then there are a handful of contributions from one-hit wonders and the "where are they now" crowd. Though not every song on this album is exactly a musical masterpiece, as a whole, it's got plenty of retro appeal and nostalgic value. ~ L. Katz

Disco Nights, Vol. 2: The Best Of Disco Funk music CDs
$10.19
Maybe it's the Mushroom River Band's ultra-clever name, or perhaps it's their debut album Music for the World Beyond's nearly-as-nifty title, but, whatever the reason, the music contained in the Swedish band's debut seemed a little disappointing when compared to their makers' way with words. More likely it's because, although expertly recorded and enthusiastically performed, full-throttle entries such as the title track, "Racing," and "Way to Go" simply lack that extra bit of songwriting invention to set them apart. Significantly, even nearly perfect stoner rock gems like "Mud Crusher" and "29' 2 1/2" (Into Thin Air)" suffer from a crippling case of "genre status quo" -- the likes of which will leave many listeners asking: "Now, where have I already heard that one before? Kyuss? Monster Magnet?" Similarly, the group's instrumental eponym track (lasting barely a minute and a half in duration) sounds like nothing less than a tribute to the guitar-solo-happy Atomic Bitchwax, and, were it not for its unconventionally percussive mid-section (think Brazilian drum squads gone north ...

Disco Nights, Vol. 2: The Best Of Disco Funk songs
$12.15
Collectables Records' two-fer combines material from two LPs released by Laurie Records in 1964 that constitute most of the early recordings of Gerry & the Pacemakers, the second beat group to come out of Liverpool and join the British Invasion. Like their predecessors, the Beatles, the Pacemakers had their U.K. recordings parceled out differently across the Atlantic; in England, this material made up their 14-track album How Do You Like It? and a bunch of A- and B-sides of singles. In the U.S., Laurie got two 12-track LPs out of it, ...

Disco Nights, Vol. 2: The Best Of Disco Funk album
$18.65
When Dr. Dre opened the 1988 classic, STRAIGHT OUTTA COMPTON, with the proclamation, "You are now about to witness the strength of street knowledge," N.W.A. was issuing their own unapologetic parental advisory--though perhaps not the one Tipper Gore had in mind. N.W.A. was one of the first groups in the rap genre to excite suburban white kids and scare their parents on such a mass scale. Though Ice Cube, MC Ren, Eazy-E, Yella, and Dr. Dre spent less than half a decade recording together, the crew birthed a monstrous style that's been with hip-hop ever since--namely gangsta rap.
Nothing is sacred and no taboos are out of reach when these five artists are at their most ruthless. Ice Cube "never should've been let out the penitentiary," just as Eazy-E is bound to "smother your mother." Dr. Dre's early production work--experimenting with hard-thumping drum tracks and computerized effects on tracks like "Dopeman" and "Alwayz Into Somethin"--laid the ...
