Disco fave David Christie “Don’t Stop Me, I Like It” on Tom’n’Jerry promo - which is the only 12” release of this track (I’ve seen). Brilliantly remixed by Tom Moulton!
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.

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...
