    Not on iTunes or Amazon. No surpise. It’s a lost 70’s treasure, I wish SOMEBODY would add it to one of the stores. Sadly it seems to be one of those things that will never arrive. Let’s hope I”m wrong.

    This song totally sucks. What the hell we're those who wrote and recorded this song thinking? I had friends back in the 70's who were totally into the disco scene. They laughed at me and told me the music I listened to (Pink Floyd, Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Rush, etc.) was on its way out and nobody would remember it 50 years from now. They said Disco was the future. Well 50 years have gone by and the only place you can find disco is on RUclips where it has been relegated tonothing more than an embarassing obsolete relic.

      But you're comparing apples to oranges. Pink Floyd, Rolling Stones, etc. were serious musical artists and there's no doubt in my mind they'll stand the test of time. But disco can give a sort of retrospective nostalgia for days of yore, and it makes for a fun contrast to the best music of our era.

      They were awful rock songs like cat scratch fever from Ted Nugent and lots of song from Kiss. Don’t try to imply that every rock song was great. Also Disco never died it went underground and influenced lots of other music like House Music and Electronica among others. If you don’t like disco music is fine but there are lots of other people that do. Even today I have been to multiple parties where nobody dances till they start playing disco music

    There were indeed some very crappy pieces that came out during the disco era, during which I was a young man (e.g. "Disco Duck" and "Disco Toilet"). But there were also some very good offerings during those years (e.g. "Heaven Knows" and "Who Loves You"). I know that there's no accounting for taste, given the varied opinions ventured here, but I really liked and still like "Disco Lucy". It's happy and fun (which disco was meant to be), and is a love letter to a then-recently bygone era in popular culture.

      I was listening to a re-broadcast of Casey Kasem's Top 40 from the week ending April 2, 1977, and this one was in the top 10. I caught the tail end, so I had to come back and listen to the whole thing. It's wonderful to those of us who love disco.
      I would disagree that Disco Duck is crappy ... or maybe it is, but I don't care because I still love it! :)

    The first time I ever heard this was when it came out, in 1976, as I was riding home from work in Washington DC, and after it was over, one of my fellow attorneys actually said: "My god, it's like we're all in hell here." Everyone else in the car agreed with him, of course. But now, I think I rather like this piece.

    Meh...nice beat and lots of fun, but they copped out and used easy chords instead the real, original chords with their dissonant harmonics, complicated structure, and the sophisticated sound which gave the piece its old Hollywood charm. 4 out of 5 anyway because they brought a familiar old tune back to life and did a fantastic job playing it.
