“I find that odd because the biggest group associated with Disco was the Bee Gees.”

Agreed and remember that the Bee Gees’ music was mainly featured in the movie that really promoted disco and that was 1978’s “Saturday Night Fever”. That movie featured a white cast with John Travolta, Donna Pescow, and Karen Lynn Gorney and it basically was about a young white working class man in Brooklyn who deep down inside aspired to make it into the upper classes in Manhattan.

John Travolta is responsible for the decline of both disco and country music (Urban Cowboy). Neither were the same after his movies came out.

There are Italians who find that movie offensive.
