| VARIOUS ARTISTS - GROOVE ON DOWN |
During the much derided 'disco
years' of the late 1970's - a period remembered by many for glitterballs,
Saturday Night Fever and commercial excess on the dance floor - a large, mainly
Black and Hispanic contingent were grooving to an array of underground club
cuts otherwise unheard by the vast majority. |
|
The tracks that these devotees
championed at the time were marked out by their soulfulness and integrity -
something that most mainstream disco releases of the day had long since
abandoned. Over time and through constant experimentation this music would
evolve, and by the early 80's it became what is now known as 'Boogie' -
typified by a slightly slower groove carried on a heavier back beat. This
compilation brings together some of the best tracks from this era - one of the
most overlooked golden periods of Soul Music.
