Any Major Disco Vol. 7 – Party Like It’s 1978
As every year, we close the year with a disco mix for that New Year’s Eve party — and it’s good even if it just involves you dancing in the kitchen, cooking up a good meal to see out the old year to greet the last year of the current decade (yeah, I know!).
This year you can party with the halfhearted dude like it’s 1978: every track here was released or was a hit in that year, 40 years ago. It’s fair to bet that a good number of the people who partied to these tunes back when they were new can still shake their booty in an appropriate manner, dodgy hips and inflamed joints be damned.
Some of the songs have run here before, particularly in the Any Major Funk series.
And with that I wish you a good slide into 2019. May it be a year of fulfilled dreams, good fortune and excellent health for us all!
