The rise and fall of both disco music and short-lived mid-70s disco group Calhoon

He survived the rise and fall of disco. Then his life started over in St. Petersburg.  Billy Stewart, who sang and played keyboards in the ’70s disco band Calhoon, walks around downtown St. Petersburg hanging up concert posters for Daddy Kool Records. Stewart gets paid $2 for every poster he hangs up.  ST. PETERSBURG — Billy Stewart walked into the chocolate shop with an arm full of concert fliers and a roll of clear tape. "Hello," he said to the shopkeep. "Could I put up one of these Daddy Kool posters?" She said yes, and Stewart got to work, thumbing off swatches of tape and tacking the posters up in the window. Sister Sledge's  We Are Family  was playing on the radio overhead. Funny thing: Stewart used to play with those guys. "Oh, yeah, a lot of times," he said. "Up there at Madison Square Garden and Nassau Coliseum. We played with them a good six, seven times at different venues. They were really good friends, and very sweet." Madison Sq...

Everything You Need to Know About Disco

Pink Floyd - Another Brick in the Wall (single edit version) - disco one-hit wonder of 1979

Image
This kid starts schooling in the second part of “Another Brick in the Wall.” His pain does not end there. In school, he is forced to believe, think, and do to a set criteria. There is no crossing the lanes. There is no free thinking. Everyone becomes emotionless humonoids at the end of this ‘production line.’ The worst part of his schooling is the mental and physical abuse the children have to suffer. The teachers are portrayed in a very dark and cynical light in this song, where they are seen getting pleasure out of emotionally degrading and punishing the kids. In the movie ‘The Wall,’ we are shown a scene where the teacher catches this kid composing a poem. Instead of complimenting him, the teacher goes on to mock the kid and emotionally scar him. An even worse aspect of this is that Pink Floyd reveals us that this behaviour of teachers is something born in their homes. In the song “The Happiest Days of Our Lives,” a mockery on the schooling days consisting of a similar theme to “Ano...
