I like the Groove On Down comps (Vols 1 & 2) a good bit. Also Disco Spectrum has some good stuff as does The American Boogie Down. And if you like the kings of... ish why not pick up their Kings of Disco cd?
oh, and there are also a few Larry Levan themed comps that have a lot of essentials
if you like the kings of series cop kings of disco, the other releases of off track as far as what i put on them...are just about all disco related, or dance related.
check sean p and joey negro's soul of disco series. also al kent has some cds floating about with some more deeper cuts, disco demands is the series.
the above give you stuff that you dont see as frequently, alot of comps cover the same old bases.
The groove on down comps are excellent value as are the peter brown/patrick adams. The first couple of dimitri from paris were good. Just look on discogs under disco in the market place and search from there.
For Prelude stuff there were some good comps put out that are pretty cheap

the tracks on the BBE LPs are affordable so just go straight to the o.g's, ive seen the dimitri comp go for over $100 and you could buy half the tracks for that. Worth picking up the two comps below though as you would have to spend to pick up all these P&P 12"s.

I know I'm not the only one who's heard Cardova's "Disco to Get Drunk By" mixes. They totally rule.
YES! I had the last one (Martini glass on the front). I found out of that track "much to much" via that mix.
and for that dimitri and muro comp. Man, I think I DL'd one of the sides and just wasn't feeling it. I gotta give it another try since folks say it is ZEE BOMB

Co sign on the disco spectrum joints. And that dimitri......man I tried to get into it but couldn't.
What, you no like the conga?
"Your So Right For Me" - Eastside Connection
This shit kills dancefloors.
Love that tune "Flight to Jamaica," and a whole gang of others on that comp.
co-sizzle
Need to check the other volume.
Yahh that track is Loveboat...buttt it's still crackin'
Any good digital stores that have good comps? How is Juno and Amazon?
The Disco Strut series has some nice stuff.
but also don't forget the ol' Super Disco Brakes on Winley
for the essentials...

crashers 12" $300 +
brainstorm 12 " $200 +
urb/ barely breaking even $100+
co sign on the counter point comps...the promo 12" of ahzz was nice as well
Glad I found mine for a couple dollars but it's worth $100. This song is a monster, super-classic.
