Nile Rodgers said it best. During the Disco time frame there was no politics as we all enjoyed music and nobody cared about race, religion, etc. It was the music that we all loved and danced to.


This one on one interview with one the greatest music writers and musical artist, is worth watching.


Best music time, when people just enjoyed without the politics!

Can we go back to enjoying music, movies, etc. again without the political statements from artists!

If you restrict "music" during that time frame to ONLY disco and pop music, maybe he has a point. Go outside that very small, specific genre, and he's incorrect. Punk was the angry, political answer to disco/pop, and reggae was always political. Toss in a bunch of stuff from the psychedelic/hard rock folks, and the emergence of art rock and new wave in 77-79, and yeah, he really needs to be speaking specifically about disco, just disco and only disco.

IF Disco was so great, why not keep listening to it? With no commentary on race, religion, politics et al, shouldn't it be timeless?


Personally, I'm gonna go throw a Jefferson Airplane album on the turntable.
