Thank you discopatrick for sharing so much disco history!

Picture this. In a fit of nostalgia, you recall a long hike along the shimmering Côte d'Opale. The sun is setting and the gray clouds receding over the coastal horizon remind you why your clothes got damp in the first place. You are among good friends and all is well. We will be drinking beer tonight. Very Nice.

I made this piece of music to go along with a video montage of a trip me and my friends went on, back in the spring of 2018.

Some disco history from my collection: A 7 inch invitation single for the new years party 1978/1979 at the Xenon disco. Xenon was a popular disco in Manhattan in the late 1970s and early 1980s. It was located at 124 West 43rd St in the former Henry Miller Theater. Xenon was the only nightclub popular enough to compete with Studio 54. The site is now the Stephen Sondheim Theater.
 Xenon was regarded as much more of a "Fashion Crowd", while Studio 54 was more Hollywood. The full-time Disc-Jockey (DJ) was Tony Smith (Who mixed this single) and the part-time DJ was John "Jellybean" Benitez.
 Xenon closed in 1984. The interior of the building was razed to make way for a skyscraper; its neo-Georgian facade, landmarked by the city, remains intact.
