Top 5 School Disco Songs


ST SID

Recommended Posts

Sid Jnr's Xmas Party disco today. Was trying to think back to the dance classics of my school discos.

1. Heart of Glass - Blondie

2. That's Entertainment - The Jam

3. One Step Beyond - Madness

4. Life's a Wank - XS Discharge

5. Tiger Feet - Mud

Just found a cracking site with details on the great XS Discharge including quotes from Chic Doherty as well as other interesting reminicing about Paisley's punk finest:

He's my cousin, you know. Shit-hot bass player. He was a punk until he went to a party & heard the live version of La Villa Strangiato by Rush and couldn't believe it was just three guys. So he grew his hair, got the Rush back catalogue, practised like fúck onthe four-string & formed a band with George McG and a bloke called Preacher. I still have a tape of one of their sessions. Actually, I think it's in me ma's. Probably lost by now, in fact.

So there ye go.
