Written by Summer and Giorgio Moroder and produced by Moroder and Pete Bellotte, the track combines a steady disco pulse with shimmering synthesizers and an almost hypnotic repetition of its central refrain. It is less about the dancefloor than about creating a sensual, romantic atmosphere...
Inspiration for the "Blue Monday" bass drum?

🇬🇧 Nick Straker Band "A Walk in the Park" – 1979
The bright, breezy melody and disco groove suggest pure escapism, but the song was actually born out of frustration. Nick Straker came up with the idea while walking through Battersea Park after an argument with his girlfriend. The 12" version gives the groove even more room to breathe...

WILLIE NELSON
The Willie Way
1972 U.S. pressingOh, Willie.
Take me away…It’s been a rough morning, following an even rougher night.
So my ass is staying home today and just feeding off of comfort music all day.
I’m gonna start with my KING of comfort, and my favorite album of his that I own.
A no more appropriate song for today than “Wake Me When It’s Over”.
Whatever way the “Willie Way” is, I’m all in.
I imagine it involves copious amounts of top-shelf weed.#vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #records #vintage #retro #physicalmedia #analog #vinylcollection #art #music #folk #country #willienelson #1970s #70s #70smusic

Released today 54 years ago:
🇬🇧 David Bowie "John, I'm Only Dancing" – 1972
One of Bowie’s great non-album singles from the Ziggy Stardust era. The lyrics were deliberately provocative for 1972, with their ambiguous sexuality contributing to the song’s reputation. RCA considered it too risqué for an American release at the time. In Britain it reached No. 12 in the singles chart...

Q: Are We Not Men?
#Devo #arewenotmen #70smusic #altrock #70srock #rock #rockmusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo! The line and the band's name are based on a satirical and pessimistic theory of human society called "de-evolution". The band's concept of "de-evolution" posits that, contrary to the idea of human progress, mankind is actually regressing. Based on the last few years, I'd say they knew what the hell they were talking about.
