The last one might be a bit more expensive but I managed to buy it almost at that price.

    John Davis & the Monster Orch. - Up Jumped The Devil

    Mad cheap and I played this out so often, always explodes.

    Although bordering cheesy-ness with that village people type vocals I love this track:



    The Real Thing - Can You Feel The Force

    One more:



    Gap Band - Baby Baba Boogie

    You're right there is tons more.

    Good choices! That's the fun thing about collecting disco, that a lot of good stuff is still affordable.

    Anothe one, embedding disabled, though

    Twiggy is looking like Rollergirl in "Boogie Nights" in that video.

    Some early Madonna-esque lollipop boogie I happen to like:

    it's pretty easy to have a sick disco 12" collection w/o paying more than 20 dollars a 12"...

    black ivory "mainline" has everything a great disco tune should have, and won't break the bank...



    and a personal favourite from billy ocean...



    and really, you should be able to find most of the main west end, prelude, salsoul etc 12's fairly cheaply and easily...

    you gotta rep the disco rap side of things too:

    T.J. Swann&Peewee; Mel and the Swann Controllers - Maximus Party

    Kurtis Blow - The Breaks

    T-ski - catch the beat

    vaughan mason and crew - bounce , rock, skate, roll

    I have been sleeping on this shit right here!

    Black Ivory - Mainline

    such a great track but not so likely to be found in decent condition under 20 $ (as everything else Leroy Burgess related).

    Another 12" I copped recently and it really worked on the dancefloor:



    Platinum Hook - Standing On The Verge Of Gettin It On

    I really like David Fathead Newman / Keep the dream alive.
    Cheap as chips and sounds as good as many big $ disco 12"s.

    That one is ace! I wasn't aware of it yet. Thanks.

    Copped for 7,99 pounds! Thanks for the heads up.

    Along with the purchase I grabbed these from the same seller:



    Central Line - Don't Tell Me



    China Burton - You Don't Care About Our Love

    Long time favorite that I posted in each in every disco thread without ever owning a physical copy of it. As the original is too pricey for me I got me the re-issue 12". This jam is perfection.

    schon, wo man halt so als erstes sucht..
    Unfortunatly the seller hadn't anything else I'm looking for. I guess he hadn't anything else for you either....

    I was also tempted to buy the 4 pounds copy but in the end condition beat price and seller had better feedback.

    Yeah, it's not bad for a Leo Sayer lookalike!
  • disco_chedisco_che 1,115 Posts
    As I see that Sidewalk label Gonzales comes to mind. The 12" with Shakedown is nice.

    And this one is a fun tune that's mad cheap.



    Mad Lads - You Blew It

    Hi Sorry about this - I just got the record to pack and there is a large crack in the centre of the spindle - so unplayable. I'm refunding you the full amount. Apologies.
