Something I haven’t done in a long time – a disco show (at least, Gulls Window Circus version of a disco show). If you think you hate disco, please listen: there is so much great music hiding under that much-maligned label. The best in that genre has an undeniable magical quality and is absolutely infectious. The Les Troubadours Du Roi Baudouin, Chuck Mangione and Salsoul Orchestra trio of tracks are must hears, and the Al Kent closer is for-tears.
