I've actually listened to that PMG album and gave it three stars too.

Welcome back! You've been gone almost as long as I have.

More More More, How do you like it so far? It takes at least twice as much time and effort to put a poll together without the WYSIWYG post editor enabled (one of those handy gadgets where you don't realise how important it is until it's gone) so I hope it was worth it.



By the way, I'm sure you're all aware by now that Andrea True was a former porn star, although I couldn't name any of the films she starred in, honestly.

Now you've mentioned it, I saw my first porn film yesterday.

I can't believe how young I looked!

There are so few people around on PA's forums these days that a poll can easily be won with just two votes - especially if it's a disco poll.

I ran out of space to include Sheila B. Devotion in the poll, but there's plenty of Spacer for a specially extended version here.

I think it might be a very high expectation to expect anyone here to have listened to these albums in full. I did (and still do) love a bit of traditional disco music. My favourite is Michael Zager Band - Let's All Chant.
Here is the link

not the full album though.

Michael Zager is a serious musician and actually teaches music at Florida Atlantic University and even has a prog connection being in a jazz rock band Ten Wheel Drive from 1968 to 1973. It's a fun track!

I'll vote for Andrea True Connection.

I've also put this up on similar threads in the past

Silver Connection - Get Up and Boogie

really weird wtf dancing

^ There's nothing strange about Silver Convention's dancing. That was perfectly normal in the 1970's.
