2009 two CD collection, an installment in Harmless' Disco Discharge series. Disco exploded out of the Gay clubs of the world in the '70s. Whilst the Disco Sucks campaign killed the vibe for the majority, the Gay scene refused to give it up. The beats got faster and the drugs got harder as they partied into the '80s. All tracks at least 12 inches long! 19 tracks. Harmless.
When Trammps had made their name with the huge hits Hold Back The Night and Disco Inferno (from Saturday Night Fever) in the mid-70s, Philadelphia International issued this album of recordings that the group had made for the label.

Highlights include the Disco Dub Band`s version of the O`Jays` "For the Love of Money" and El Coco`s nimble-sounding "Cocomotion `79."

The second CD contains four remixes of two of the cuts.
