Van McCoy & The Soul City Symphony – Disco Baby 1975 (Avco)
Label : Avco Value : This is it – the record that helped put disco over in a huge way, with a sound that would go on to be heavily imitated for years to come – a record that was the landmark achievement of the great Van McCoy – who'd already been working in soul music for a number of years by the time of this set! Van's earlier arrangements were often as full of sweeping strings and grooves as contemporary Barry White – and here, he gets a touch of pop production from the Hugo & Luigi team – on short groovers that really help take the sound of the discos into the American living room!
