Disco (Mirror) 5

The Disco (Mirror) series continues with volume 5. This pick, as you know,  if you've been following, is a playlist of disco songs that I either danced to or played during the disco era. Some well known and a few that weren't as popular. This volume has one of the worst disco songs of all time: Disco Duck. But you know how I feel about worst songs lists. They sometimes are exactly the same as the best songs list. Or at least there is some overlap. But it's hard to imagine another pick that is hated as much as Rick Dee's Disco Duck. And yet it's highly danceable. Think of it as the chicken dance for disco. This volume also has two Tex's. Different people. Joe Tex who was a contemporary for James Brown and the other was Disco Tex and the Sex-O-Lettes. Disco Tex was a group and Joe considered himself to be better than James Brown, even claiming that Brown stole his dance moves. He has other great hits that may point in that direction back in the 60's. Disco Tex had two hits, one that's on here.
