I am a disco dancing queen and I still listen to this genre. I dont get tired of it . Although I realize not to many people like it because they didn't grow up listening to it or they just dont like dancing . This is upbeat fun music that will get you in a good mood . Blessings to you all 🙏💃❤

Maravillosos años de la musica disco en su maximo apogeo, recuerdo que el disco Lp ERA COLOR ROJO !...la musica que llego para quedarse ! Me recuerda a una etapa de mi vida que fue muy bonita, la etapa de mi niñez a la pubertud, de ahi para adelante todo fue pura aventura en la vida!

I'm a heavy metal fan... but this music rocks!!!!

[@veritomiranda70]

Same here! Lol

[@brain67braker]

As most of heavy metal fans like myself, I can say we have a special ear for music of all kinds. To appreciate metal music you need to have an open mind. That's the advantage we metal lovers have.

I was about 12 years old back in 1979 and loved this then and now. DISCO ROCKS! The lead female singer sounds alot like Deniece Williams!

[@MartinRodriguez-ct5nx]

The female singer is Jessica Williams.

[@horsluva0758]

Agree

[@ignazs.5816]

I actually think she sings very similar to Denise LePage from the group Lime.

[@vincentferrante8238]

@@ignazs.5816 yes she does

[@xxxbrooklyn]

The voice on the recording is actually MonaLisa young

[@soundstodreamby3225]

As noted above, on this day in 1979 {March 17th} Arpeggio performed "Love and Desire (Part One)" on the syndicated Saturday-afternoon program, 'Soul Train'... At the time "Love and Desire" was at #82 on Billboard's Hot Soul Singles chart, four weeks later it would peak at #44 {for 2 weeks} and it spent nine weeks on the chart... And the following month on April 14th the trio would appear on the ABC-TV Saturday-afternoon program, 'American Bandstand', were they performed "Love and Desire", at the time it was peaking at #44 on the Hot Soul Singles chart...
