  • Young Americans to Emotional Rescue: Selected Meetings
    YOUNG AMERICANS TO EMOTIONAL RESCUE: SELECTING MEETINGS BETWEEN DISCO AND ROCK, 1975-1980 Daniel Kavka A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF MUSIC August 2010 Committee: Jeremy Wallach, Advisor Katherine Meizel © 2010 Daniel Kavka All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jeremy Wallach, Advisor Disco-rock, composed of disco-influenced recordings by rock artists, was a sub-genre of both disco and rock in the 1970s. Seminal recordings included: David Bowie’s Young Americans; The Rolling Stones’ “Hot Stuff,” “Miss You,” “Dance Pt.1,” and “Emotional Rescue”; KISS’s “Strutter ’78,” and “I Was Made For Lovin’ You”; Rod Stewart’s “Do Ya Think I’m Sexy“; and Elton John’s Thom Bell Sessions and Victim of Love. Though disco-rock was a great commercial success during the disco era, it has received limited acknowledgement in post-disco scholarship. This thesis addresses the lack of existing scholarship pertaining to disco-rock. It examines both disco and disco-rock as products of cultural shifts during the 1970s. Disco was linked to the emergence of underground dance clubs in New York City, while disco-rock resulted from the increased mainstream visibility of disco culture during the mid seventies, as well as rock musicians’ exposure to disco music. My thesis argues for the study of a genre (disco-rock) that has been dismissed as inauthentic and commercial, a trend common to popular music discourse, and one that is linked to previous debates regarding the social value of pop music.

Miles Page 1 of 17 Message from the President As has been said repeatedly about 2020, it was a year like no other we've experienced in our lifetimes! The Covid-19 pandemic started in March with stay-at- home orders, and affected all organizations, individuals and families in ways they couldn't imagine. It took creativity and resilience to survive, much less succeed. And, the generous support of our membership, patrons, and donors for which we are eternally grateful. The Society was fortunate to have started the year with a unique fundraiser. Thank goodness David Miles was born on February 14, because the timing could not have been better to celebrate his 80th with a Gala at the brand new Argonne House! We had guests fly in from some soon-to-be hotspots. It was a terrific party and wonderful benefit for us, with around 90 guests and clearing over $5,600. After that, all live events were cancelled for the season. We did have more museum visitors than expected once we got reopened in May with social distancing restrictions.

  • I Hear a Symphony
    1 I Hear a Symphony BLACK MASCULINITY AND THE DISCO TURN You should see this whole Roxy Music thing. It’s so elegant and cool and -fashionable. —Nile Rodgers to Bernard Edwards, cofounders of -Chic isco snuck up on America like a covert operation. This wasn’t how it had been in the sixties, when shifts in popular music—the arrival of the mop-headed British Invasion bands, Bob Dylan’s galvanizing electric turn, the emergence of Dpsychedelic rock—were unmissable cultural events immediately accorded the status of milestones. The rock “ revolution” of the sixties, like the Vietnam War and the protests it provoked, was the object of intense media coverage. Newsweek, Life, Time, and all the rest pounced on the story with prairie-fire speed. In a blink, whole new publications, including that soon-to-be arbiter of countercultural taste, Rolling Stone, emerged to chronicle the music, personalities, and culture of rock. The major labels may have been bewildered by the scruffiness, long hair, and druggy vibe of groups such as Big Brother and the Holding Company and the Grateful Dead, but they barely paused before racing to sign them up, even when they were little known outside of San Francisco’s hippie enclave, Haight--Ashbury. Six years later, when another musical revolution was taking shape, record companies opened neither their arms nor their coffers, with the result that disco developed slowly and at first largely off the official map. By the time Vince Aletti wrote about what he called “party music” and “discotheque rock,” in a fall 1973 issue of Rolling Stone, gay men had been dancing in discos for three years.

Lifestyles, fashion, and attitudes were changing and disco was the soundtrack that brought it all together.

We’re bringing that movement to the high seas on the Ultimate Disco Cruise as we celebrate the dance explosion that was disco music. Get onboard in 2019 and dance the night away as we hustle back to the late ’70s and relive everything that made the disco era such a special time in our lives. 5 Nights of Dance Fever at Sea!
