    This ain't no disco list

    I would certainly not call this a disco playlist but a "Dance" playlist. Disco is a specific type of music in a specific era and time. Yes, most of today's dance music is a variation of Disco but really Camille - Let's Get Physical by Olivia? That song is neither funk or soul and I surely would not call it Disco. Besides you can't really have a Disco list without Love & Kisses can you?

    So why don't we rename it:

    Camille's Paglia's Dance Playlist

    A history in songs: From soul and funk to disco and some crappy shit in between, 1960's-80's.
