Another big theme in Disco is space or science fiction. This explores that side of it. I think part of it was the fascination of Star Wars right when Disco hit. Names like Meco who did a bunch of directly related Star Wars songs probably got the ball rolling. French dude Cerrone did a whole scifi "hit and bunches followed. The Italo-Disco phenomena released several really good space disco compilations. Spaceships, rockets, the future, stars, planets all covered in here. This is a two parter for me. I start the pick off with a song that you may recognize from an earlier Disco Leopard volume, because it is space oriented and perfect to start the series within a series. The cover does have Leopard in it (but only the text as it is space themed after all.)
