I disagree.
Disco was destroyed by New Wave.
New Wave wiped the stench of Disco from the airwaves in 1979-1980. By late 1980, Disco was a relic.
> Disco was destroyed by New Wave.
Nope. Not even the combined forces of Duran Duran and ABC and Blondie could kill this beast. I know this for a fact: there's a secretary in our offices who merrily listens to Disco on her i-Pod: young enough to be my daughter. Donna Summer, Bee-Gees, Village People, Leo Sayer -- the whole nine yards, mate.
Disco ain't dead.
Long Live Rock, be it dead or alive!
