Comment:

There really isn't enough Disco here at AotM! (only kidding). However... in the late 70s disco music internationally was dominated by such artists as The Bee Gees, Donna Summer, Chic, Gloria Gaynor, Village People, etc. The rhythm was everything and musicianship was secondary.

In South Africa, however, disco seemed to take on a distinct harder edge, with a number of classic hard rock and heavy metal songs being given the disco treatment. Paul Ryan's classic 'Eloise' was extended to 17 minutes by Zane CronjT's Rouge, HOT RS covered Iron Butterfly's 'In-A-Gadda-Da -Vida' (cleverly combining it with Frankie Vaughan's 1957 UK #1 smash hit 'Garden Of Eden' - an early mash-up!) and Peter Vee's Buffalo covered Steppenwolf's heavy metal anthem 'Born To Be Wild' as part of a disco rock medley.

Ex-Rabbitt, Trevor Rabin with his Disco Rock Machine recorded the Kinks' 'You Really Got Me' while his colleague, Neil Cloud (Rabbitt's drummer), combined (mashed?) The Marmalade's 'Reflections Of My Life' with 'The Good, The Bad and The Ugly' movie theme. These extended disco versions (I've included the track times) had a disco beat but also had some great rock guitar solos.
