Links: The lows and highs of the history of disco.

One of the worst disco songs ever: “Here Comes The Night” by the Beach Boys. (See also its coverage in Andrew Hickey’s series of reviews of every Beach Boys album.)
Nearly as bad as the other worst, “Hallelujah 2000”, which is pretty much a call to stadium record burning. See how long you can last; I have never managed more than five minutes, usually under one. Perhaps minutes 10-15 are actually brilliant! But nobody will ever know.
Of course, disco improved in later years. I’ve just dredged up from the ancient rocknerd.org a 2003 interview with Jimmy Cauty from the KLF by Ben Butler. I mostly haven’t copied Ben’s old rocknerd.org stuff over to rocknerd.co.uk, but this one isn’t up anywhere else and I considered it well worth preserving.
