This review is for: Disco Discharge: Europa
I have bought all 16 of the Disco Discharge CD's released so far. This one is a particularly good one. The main thing with the tracks on this collection is that they are quality Italo-Disco, Eurobeat and Hi-NRG tracks and most are hard to find or have not appeared on CD before. The first track is slightly different to the rest. It's one of those tracks you either love or hate, but I love it. Taco's "Putting On The Ritz" means little in the UK, but in America it was a million seller reaching number 4 in the chart. It's a fantastic camp piece of nonsense updated from the 1930's film and delivered in a deadpan style. This extended 12" version has an instrumental medley of other tracks towards the end including "There's No Business Like Show Business". It was really hard to find on CD before. I managed to track it down on a Japanese import CD years ago, but now here it is being virtually given away on this bargain priced collection! Other hits here include Baltimora's 1985 summer hit "Tarzan Boy" (reached No. 3 in the UK, reached No. 1 in France and spent 6 months on the U.S. chart) in the original 12" version (Note: This is the original 12" version not the Summer Version which can be found on the Baltimora CD: Tarzan Boy which I have also reviewed), Fancy "Bolero (Hold Me In Your Arms Again)" which reached number 6 in Spain, and Silver Pozzoli "Around My Dream" which reached No. 9 in Germany and was No. 1 in South Africa. Fun Fun "Living In Japan" says it's the 12" version but it's actually the album version, but it's nice to see a track of theirs other than "Happy Station" included on a compilation for once. Aleph's storming Hi-NRG classic "Fly To Me" is good to see here, plus tracks from Radiorama, Lian Ross, Digital Emotion, Alan Barry, Brian Ice - all great tracks. There isn't a bad track on this whole collection actually. Vanessa's "Upside Down (Dizzy Does It Make Me)" says Original 12" Mix but actually plays the Class-X Razormaid DJ Mix, although it's just great to get this fantastic slice of cheese on CD at all. Lastly, anyone familiar with the excellent Albert One may be interested to know that the Jock Hattle Band track here is Albert One under another name.

The Disco Discharge series should be applauded for its inclusion of Italo-Disco to its rightful place in the history of Disco/dance music.
This CD collection includes some of the very best examples of the genre - in particular Silver Pozzoli's "Around My Dream", which for me evokes the timeless beauty of 8-track Italo excellence - just haunting and melodic.
Certainly i'm nostalgic as a fan of this music - having owned all the ZYX Best of Italo albums back in the day, plus loads of other compilations and 12" singles. Italo-Disco was also popular in gay clubs in the UK (special mention to The Powerhouse in B'ham which championed Italo every Thurs back in the mid-80's) - hence its evolution/merger with Hi NRG into Eurobeat.
The vocals, accents and lyrics in Italo-Disco are often cheesy, but this was part of the charm of the genre.
We also heard them when on holiday each summer in Spain etc, so these songs sometimes crossed over each September in the UK (such as "Tarzan Boy" by Baltimora).
Now if only someone would re-release on CD my favourite ever Italo album- "Have Fun" by Fun Fun.....

Great memories!
I am a big fan of 80's Italo and Eurobeat and those behind the Disco Discharge series must be as well as this is the forth Italo based album they have released. And it's a corker! Read more
