But one thing that song helped do was destroy disco, similar to the way Nirvana destroyed 80s hair bands when they hit the scene. Also that summer was the infamous Disco Demolition night at Chicago's Wrigley field, held between the games of a twilight White Sox/Tigers double-header. A riot ensued, causing the second game to be forfeited to the Tigers. The baseball field was set on fire, things were exploding, thousands of fans swarmed the field and players had to be herded into their locker rooms for their protection.
We did some crazy things in the 1970s.
The summer of 1979 was really a great time for music. Some of my favorite albums that summer was "Flash And The Pan" by Flash And The Pan, "Candy-O" by The Cars, "Breakfast In America" by Supertramp and "Van Halen II", among many others.
