Disco: Soundtrack of a Revolution
Ain't No Stoppin' Us Now
Season 1 Episode 2 of 3
A look at how disco conquered the mainstream charts, from Donna Summer's anthemic, provocative single Love to Love You Baby to Sylvester's You Make Me Feel Mighty Real. As disco's influence spread across Europe, it spawned the electronic stylings of Giorgio Moroder, as well as the disco pop of Abba and Marc Cerrone, while the Bee Gees became the acceptable face of disco with their multimillion-selling soundtrack album for Saturday Night Fever
Disco: Soundtrack of a Revolution airs on RTE2 HD at 1:20 AM, Saturday 25 October. (Subtitles, repeat.)
