 Lot Of Great Music For Most Any Age Group June 15, 2008
As a Disco CD this far outranks the average assembly of hit singles. In my opinion, over two thirds of the list falls under the `Yes, these songs indeed represent what the disco era was about' category. Sure, 5 or 6 dupes did get included but no compilation ever completely tracks anybody's all-time favorites (unless maybe you're an Elvis fan whom has carefully scanned all 70 or so of his `originally arranged' Essential Greats). Anyway, `nuff of the analyzation. If you're alone thinking a boost could be in order, with your special mate or simply wish to get into a happy mood with a bunch of buddies then this CD definitely includes purpose for you...

Pure Disco, Vol. 3 is a fine installment in this CD series that has so many wonderful disco tunes that we can still enjoy and dance to today! The quality of the sound is excellent and the artwork is very nicely done.
Sister Sledge starts the whole thing off with her hit, "He's The Greatest Dancer." Sister Sledge sings this really well and that funky 70's disco beat really sounds great! The backup singers do a great job; and the music fits in perfectly with the lyrics, too. Chic also scored a major disco hit with their "Le Freak;" "Le Freak" has the percussion marking the beat and they sing and play this to perfection! The rhythm is very well done and Chic makes this all their own. In addition, The Village People sing "In The Navy" with their usual campy style; but it all works very well and The Village People certainly had their share of success!
"Disco Inferno" by The Trammps is one of my very favorite disco tunes on this entire album; the beat is excellent and The Trammps inject just a touch of soul to make this a strong number. I really like "Disco Inferno" and I think you'll like it, too. Kool & The Gang also score big with their hit entitled "Ladies Night;" "Ladies Night" is terrific and the beat is perfect for dancing. Kool & The Gang really impress me a lot. Listen also for Gloria Gaynor to perform her classic disco number, "Never Can Say Goodbye." "Never Can Say Goodbye" is probably one of the best disco numbers ever written and just one listen proves it! Gloria sings this with all her might and it really shows when you hear this number. Donna Summer's "Could It Be Magic" shines equally bright; Donna was one of the greatest disco queens and she richly deserved this accolade.
"Get Up & Boogie" by The Silver Connection features some very good harmonizing; and the backup chorus works well for this tune. "Get Up & Boogie" has that classic disco flavor and it still sounds great today. Abba's "Lay All Your Love On Me" isn't my idea of a true blue disco tune--but it's so good it should be here on this CD anyway. Sylvester's "You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)" IS true blue disco--and man, how he could turn out a tune! Andy Gibb's "Shadow Dancing" is an example of a disco number that has a slower beat; and The Four Seasons do great on "December, 1963 (Oh, What A Night)." The album ends very well with the "Martian remix" of "You're The One I Want" from Grease sung by John Travolta and Olivia Newton John. Great!
Overall, this installment in the "Pure Disco" CD series carries its weight well and there's lots to enjoy. I highly recommend this for disco fans and people who like `70s music may do well to check out this album.
Great exercise music! April 18, 2008
I purchased pure disco vol 1, 2, & 3 & loaded the songs on my MP3 player my daughter gave me. Now I can listen to songs of my youth while I take walks or walk the treadmill. Love it!
