If I've heard correctly wasn't this like the first Disco hit, wasn't it?......I remember a documentary about Disco and I remember this song being a big deal because it was the drummer that came up with what they called the 4 on the Floor drum beat, which was for 4 beats per measure with the base drum (the floor pedal) drum and prior to that almost every song was beats on 1 and 3 or 2 and 4 ...but that 4 on the floor was 1 2 3 and 4, and that really became what made disco distinct from RnB was that 4 beats per measure.
@androlibre9661 Жыл бұрын
I just went down a mini youtube rabbit hole because I couldnt remember exactly, but this wasn't the first Disco hit but the drummer's for the Tramp's name is Earl Young, and he is credited for inventing the four on the floor beat pattern (as it was used in Disco), and there's a clip on KZbin "Earl Young Explains his Revolutionary Disco Beat" and the man himself explains it.....and damn what that man can do with a set of drums

That is absolutely true. From House to Hi-NRG to a lot of Techno to today's beats, it all has its origin in that 4-on-the-floor, metronomic seventies disco beat. You tell some people that and they disagree, but it's true. Seventies disco was the first "beats per minute" music.

This song is thought of as the first true disco hit that introduced the world to the genre. Then you have the song DON’T LEAVE ME THIS WAY. This was originally sung by HAROLD MELVIN AND THE BLUE NOTES but I prefer the version by THE COMMUNARDS as you get a great dance track which is a bit more 80’s.

I hit everyone with a vast span of music, you just never knew what was coming next from my 3 1200 turntables. Anyways, I’m performing a set and people starting screaming. And they wouldn’t stop. I’m thinking, man they are really digging the music. Turns out they’d been trying to get my attention 😂. There was a candle on the table that caught my table on fire. I hurried and put the fire out, and what did I drop next?! You got it: Disco Inferno. The crowd went wild. Wild! And we partied for a few more hours non-stop until everyone was exhausted. That period of time was unmatched. You did grow up in the wrong era.

Disco was about SO much more than just great music. It was about celebration... And it brought EVERYONE together. We had just come out of a long war which, arguably, we shouldn't have ever entered. People everywhere were exhausted and hurting from seeing so much destruction and misery brought into our homes, in full color, for FAR too long... And from fighting the powermongers to end it and bring the boys home in something other than bodybags. It was a time to reunite, grieve our losses and heal our wounds... And then PARTY until after dawn at every opportunity. Never was the nightclub scene so big or so awesome as those disco-era years. What a time to be young! 🫶🤟

The Trammps' song 'That's Where the Happy People Go' was another hit in mid 70s! One of my favorites as a kid.

For Female Friday, try Thelma Houston's "Don't Leave Me This Way"--a disco classic.

I was about 11 when Disco was at it's peak and I cannot express to you how infectious this music was. I my 6th grade class our PE period was learning the Hustle! Best party music ever!

Oh those disco days! This was my anthem for a full year out of the 3 years I frequented the discos in Cincinnati. The feeling this song brings back is overwhelming but so incredible. It's a shame you two can't travel back to see and experience the sights and sounds of those days. Those memories will forever be with me.

I was born in 1970. I can personally testify, Disco Inferno is thee definition of 1970s disco music iconography. I recall hearing it playing on the radio when i was a child. Iconic AF. Madonna features that song in her Confessions Tour Live concert. It sounds EPIC there.

Back in the day when DJs had the 12" version that could go on forever. ❤ 1977 78 and was played in the clubs for quite a few years on.

I agree THIS is some Funky Disco! Is there Anyone Who DOESN'T want to get up on the Dance Floor when this song starts? Not that I'd do it justice out there... :) Love It!!! I can imagine both of You Guys Out There In The Day Using Up ALL Your Energy! Great Choice! :)

In 1973 the weekend started on Thursday night and ended Sunday morning. We used to cruise from one bar/nightclub to another, dancing and drinking. It would end Sunday morning at a diner. I was 19 and I am thankful.

Wide collars, open neck, bright colors and bellbottoms. Had the 3-piece polyester, and yes, light the floor and spin the mirror ball, baby! Thanks for the memories ❤

This and Funkytown are my favorite mainstream dance songs of the era. Too bad I had to wait 30+ years to appreciate it as a hardcore metal head in the 80's.

Love this song so much. When this song came on at the disco, I was ALWAYS inspired to get up and out on the dance floor, even if I had to dance by myself! This song had the BEST bass line EVER for dancing. Many thanks to The Trammps!!

Growin up during those times, we were at the clubs EVERY NIGHT. The Skyline was our place. 11th floor of the Wachovia building surrounded by floor to ceiling glass walls looking out over the city. Dancing all night long. Couldn't get drunk cause we danced all the alcohol out of our systems. And yeah, we burned that mutha down.
