Format:Audio CD
The second in the Disco Discharge series is a great addition to any serious dance music fans collection. There are a couple of more well known tracks on here: Andrea True Connection - "More More More" & Sheila & B. Devotion - "Spacer" but they fit in very well with the more unknown tracks so I'm not complaining. Stand out tracks for me are "Gloria Jones - "Bring On The Love (Why Can't We Be Friends Again)" which is most akin to the Philly sound, the uber funky Suzy Q "Get On Up And Do It Again", the cosmic Sylvia Love - "Instant Love" a Giorgio Moroder-ish electronic wonder, Amanda Lear - "Blood And Honey" a nine minute German Disco classic and Sister Sledge - "You Fooled Around" which is a Chic production and easily stands up there with the more well known Sister Sledge/Chic tracks. That's just my fave's but every track is a winner. Great packaging as well (Loving the front cover image!)It's obvious that the people behind this series love the genre and I can't recommend this album highly enough. It delves deep for the collectors without excluding the disco first timers. Lovely stuff!

The Disco Discharge series is just brilliant and the 'Disco Ladies' is the set I am listening to most at the moment.
I was in my late teens/early twenties in the late seventies/early eighties and some of these tracks really bring back memories of those years the obvious tracks for me being Spacer, Get Up and Boogie and Boogie Oogie Oogie. However there are tracks on here that passed me by completely my major find being Fern Kinney Groove Me-I just do not understand how I missed it in the day?
The sound quality of these discs is outstanding, they have been lovingly restored. Many of the tracks sound like they could have been recorded today-unbelievable as some are over 30 years old.
I now have all 8 double discs in the series and understand 4 more are on the way later in the year. I am waiting impatiently.
If you are a fan of Disco buy buy buy even if you are not give them a try they are so reasonably priced

The good people at Harmless have been Kind enough to compile four excellent compilations covering every aspect of the original Disco genre. Covering 'Disco Ladies', 'Classic Disco', 'Gay Disco & Hi-NRG' and 'Euro Disco". Lovingly restored and for many of the racks they appear for the first time on CD in their 'Original' Full length mixes. Don't be disillusioned by other reviews stating the mixes are too long?? Hello! These are disco classics/tracks and were not 3 minute radio ditties! 90% of so called Disco comps are recycled and obvious and almost always include shortened radio edits. This set of 4 covers a truly historic period in music, let alone dance music. Before the 12 inch single came along DJs had to do with 7" or album tracks and double up to create longer tracks and be pretty good at blending so as to keep the dancefloors rocking. The whole point of extended versions was to let the dancers go off and enjoy their favourites as much as possible and of course the breaks were there to 'give the drummer some'. These Original versions (which is what they are despite previous reviewers claiming otherwise) are the definite versions played back in those heady days across the globe, anywhere there was a soundsystem and a glitterball. This series is relevant and diverse and includes some well known classics, as well some hard to find corkers that still sound good today. If you are at all interested in the origins of House/Garage/Dance Music then this is it, lesson 101. Do yourself a favour and buy all four, you will not regret it!
