Those wishing to add a John Travolta element to their next party or mix tape would be wise to pick up Monster Disco. (As a matter of fact, Tavares's "More Than A Woman" and The Trammps "Disco Inferno" have their origins on the wildly successful Saturday Night Fever soundtrack). Despite all the glitz and excess associated with this musical trend, this anthology demonstrates how much of a populist movement disco was. Working stiffs (Rose Royce's "Car Wash"), gay culture (Village People's "Macho Man"), feminists (Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive") and the 1979 World Champion Pittsburgh Pirates (Sister Sledge's "We Are Family") all wound up with anthems.


Other artists like Amii Stewart ("Knock On Wood") and Thelma Houston ("Don't Leave Me This Way") successfully resurrected older nuggets and turned them into dance-friendly baubles. While some artists delivered silly song titles (A Taste Of Honey's "Boogie Oogie Oogie"), gave commands (Peaches & Herb's "Shake Your Groove Thing"), or declared their ardor for dance culture (Alicia Bridges' "I Love The Nightlife") disco's minions always took their cue from the queen herself (Donna Summer's "Dim All The Lights").
