Nice, but a little less nice than I had hoped.

The necessary greats from that time like Nile, Jellybean and the inevitable Nicky Siano are always interesting but the documentary is a bit too much larded with the (perhaps understandable) New York gay scene of that time and that interests me less than the actual music. Would have liked to see a bit more of the latter actually.

Oh yes and don't forget kids: House is Disco's revenge!

On January 12th, Steve Dahl and Mice Veeck organized a "Disco Demolition Night" at the Chicago White Sox baseball stadium. Under the motto "Disco Sucks," thousands gathered to blow up or burn their disco records. It heralded the end of the disco era, but, as the title suggests, disco returned a few years later in a more modern form and conquered the world once again. Musician Nile Rodgers, DJ and producer Jellybean Benitez, and actor, singer, and queer icon Billy Porter reconstruct the rise, fall, and revival of disco from their own perspectives. A musical and cultural portrait of urban life in the US in the 1970s and 1980s, full of famous, yet almost forgotten, disco classics and a valuable reminder of how music can connect and unite.
