Disco: The Land Of Make Believe

The Sun.
Okay, it's getting old now.
And this from the guy who wrote Le Freak (Meaning 'Fuck Off!') cause they wouldn't let him into Studio 54.
I love Nile Rodgers - and Chic and Sister Sledge, especially - but enough of this Disco revisionism.

The Politics Of Dancing: Freedom

Nile Rodgers on The Politics Of Dancing - How Disco Changed The World is beyond amazing.
"It's all about fags and fag hags..."
I liked it when he said most Chic songs were an exercise in irony; like writing 'Good Times' in the middle of a recession.
Great programme.
