Let Me Be Your Fantasy - Love Symphony Orchestra

Image
The best thing about the end of the 70's was that everyone who wanted to be a part of society had to throw themselves on the disco wave.  This created many interesting, exciting or curious elements in the disco era's global record bank. Love Symphony Orchestra fits into the category of curious elements. At first glance, there is little special about this release. "Love," "Symphony" and "Orchestra" were common words in artist names. Here, even my personal opinion is that all releases that contain "symphony" or "orchestra" must be checked out as these often turn out to be delicious harmonic orchestral disco songs. Whether LSO ends up there, we will come back to. First to the curiosity. Like so much else in the 70's: telepathy, communist plans to attack the West and aliens, the Love Symphony Orchestra was not a real orchestra. In 1978, Penthouse Magazine (jepp, mannbladet) released a disco album (an idea that was later used by ...

Disco Lab (Halloween Edition): The Manhattan Transfer – ‘Twilight Zone/Twilight Tone’ (1979)

  Posted on  October 22, 2016   by  Mr. Groove Disco Lab #33 (Halloween Edition): The Manhattan Transfer – ‘Twilight Zone/Twilight Tone’ (1979) Sometimes disco was futuristic (robots controlled by the beat) and sometimes it looked to the past (New York high society steppin’ out to mingle). The retro vibe gave a boost to  The Manhattan Transfer , a swing-vocal combo formed in 1969 who found a surprise hit with the gospel number “Operator” in 1975. For a few years, the group’s retro ’20s-’30s sound struggled to have hit records in the US, though they broke through consistently in the UK. All this would change with the group’s fourth album  Extensions . One cut, the disco-inflected medley “ Twilight Zone/Twilight Tone ,” became a surprise hit for the group. It fused the trademark Transfer vocal sound with a spooky, mystical vibe.  Extensions  was released on Halloween, 1979, which meant that the diehard MT fans had a great supernatural dance party ja...
