Excelente video gracias por compartirlo desde, saludos desde Perú en Sudamérica, extraordinaria época, durante la semana esperaba con ansias que llegue l día sábado para bailar incansablemente. Sin lugar a dudas los que nacimos entre 1959 1965 agarramos la ola de la Música Disco

I was one of the dancers on this show. I remember the selection process. My partner and I practiced rehearsing regularly to appear on the tv shows produced in Century City 1978. We were “tapped” and moved to a higher dance platform. Then I was pulled aside to sit beside Davy Jones for the next introduction of performers. I thought him fresh to put his hand on my thigh without asking first.😮

Great show, if I remember it was shown on Global TV Toronto, seeing Patrick Juvet singing I Love America stood out showcasing European disco artists. Fabulous!!

[@dancingdog60]

Lots of cool hustle dancers. It was nice to see that Electric Boogaloo group also.

[@Enter_Zoneless]

Hell yeah, they killed it

These programs take me back to the times I was young inexperienced happy to have a friend to hit all the disco's August 28, 78 he was hit by lightning, I was devastated, didn't know what --- scared to go near his body my first brush with death. Times were very different then. It took decades and a rainy night, rain so hard it kept us (the person I got closer with, ran with a dear friend) from exiting the car to hear the words no intention (It was a close friend from my teens she knew because I told her so that no one was there ,he didn't show up, show tickets on the table i cried called a friend that lived a few blocks away and spent the night there. I eventually went to "Oil Cans" went out on the floor to dance by myself, the floor cleared and one by one they came up and danced with me, I was still in a daze. Watching these shows fills me in what was hapening at that time. More than 40 years gone by Im still dancing, dance a 10 15 min gig at an eatery where my Stag group gathers Friday nights it brightens me and the place. Occasionally in the last few years I spoke of this time someone asked me if there was anything on the internet, no i've looked, I looked again, it took some weeks of looking and looing again for my eyes and memory to clear, I began to recognize, wasnt sure, is that? Took a while to wake up oh yes oh thats me too hunh Thanks JK

[@mrob75]

the muted song is: "Burnin' With Love"

[@mecin123]

Bob McGilpin and the same outfit from the album!!! #2 Great!

[@marthaibarra3829]

I love the night live in internet

[@TheOwl]

I remember watching this back in the day, fun stuff.

[@bobdavis4848]

Great show, great songs, sure are a lot of intrusive edits though. KZbin muted the first Carol Douglas song (which one?) even though the second and third of hers they thought were OK? What happened to the intro and the “Fire” lady? You didn’t list the last Bob McGilpin song “Moon Dancin’.”

[@stephentaylor8461]

Bob, remember that we recorded these for business purposes to evaluate the magnetic tape development for the VHS standard and didn't want commercials to play when we were viewing them at engineering meetings. So the commercials were edited On-the-Fly while recording was taking place. All the information listed about the songs is placed there by Google for the copyright holders. I have no control over it - adding, changing, or removing.

[@bobdavis4848]

@@stephentaylor8461 Thanks for all your helpful clarifications; they make sense. Too bad there wasn't a disco archivist at the time anticipating something like internet and youtube 40 years later...but great you reached back and did what you could! :-)

[@summer4ever469]

Does anyone know how who sings the song that starts playing in the 17:31 minute? I think the song is called "Stand up"

[@aallpp55]

Atlantic starr.

@@aallpp55 Thank you

[@fredpeterson5822]

It has no sound on this thing!

[@stephentaylor8461]

The sound is only on one track - also, some songs are muted by the copyright police -

[@vincentvega8210]

Has anyone notice....not one fat person !! No obesity in the70's ..I think it has to do with the cocaine

[@mxxjss]

And no fast food super size option at that time.

[@blktenor]

It could also have something to do either the fact that the producers hand picked who they wanted on the show. Of course there were fat people in the 70s. Don’t be ridiculous

[@dancingdog60]

You never saw Dom DeLuise bro?

[@joburch7583]

My sentiments exactly!@@blktenor

[@manuelvidal1387]

No sound............NO DISCO SHOW.
