Disco - Ain't No Stopping Us Now

Episode 7 of 10

Featuring classic performances from the disco era, including The Jacksons, Sylvester, George McCrae, Sister Sledge, and McFadden and Whitehead.

Disco was all pervasive in the mid and early 70s. And while towards the end of the decade punk stole the headlines, disco still had the high street. Everyone was into it and getting down on it at the local discotheque. Join us in a celebration of all things disco including performances by The Jacksons, Thelma Houston, Sylvester, Carl Douglas, George McCrae, Sister Sledge, McFadden and Whitehead, Eruption and Gloria Gaynor.
