NOW Music proudly presents the next release in our “NOW That’s What I Call An Era” series – NOW That's What I Call An Era - Disco: 1973-1980 – a dazzling celebration of the golden age of disco.

This 4CD showcases 88 essential tracks that lit up the dancefloors, charts, and airwaves at the height of disco fever — an era when glittering anthems, euphoric grooves, and iconic vocal performances defined nightlife around the world. This 4-CD comes in ‘hardback book’ packaging that includes a 28-page booklet featuring a track-by-track guide.

CD1 opens in iconic style with Chic’s monumental ‘Le Freak’ followed by Sister Sledge’s equally legendary ‘We Are Family’, and Gloria Gaynor’s empowering #1 ‘I Will Survive’. The Village People also topped the chart with ‘YMCA’ which has become an enduring party favourite. Anthems follow from Sylvester with ‘You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)’ and Chaka Khan with ‘I’m Every Woman’. Up next Blondie’s genre-defying ‘Heart Of Glass’, and with production by Chic’s Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards, Diana Ross with ‘Upside Down’, and Sheila & B. Devotion’s ‘Spacer’. Timeless floor-fillers including ‘Young Hearts Run Free’ by Candi Staton and hits from Heatwave, The Emotions, A Taste Of Honey, Odyssey, KC & The Sunshine Band, and Frantique lead into global smashes ‘Funkytown’ from Lipps Inc., ‘Daddy Cool’ from Boney M., and Andrea True Connection’s ‘More, More, More’.

CD2 begins with Donna Summer’s epic version of ‘MacArthur Park’, before The Trammps with their era-defining ‘Disco Inferno’. Earth, Wind & Fire with The Emotions bring pure euphoria on ‘Boogie Wonderland’, followed by disco staples from Vicki Sue Robinson, Dan Hartman, and a #1 from UK band The Real Thing. Crown Heights Affair, Liquid Gold, Alicia Bridges, Cheryl Lynn, and Musique keep the classics coming, before a soulful run of tracks from Shalamar, Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes, and Marvin Gaye. Barry White, Kool & The Gang, The Gap Band, and The S.O.S. Band all deliver funk-infused disco brilliance, with the CD concluding with feel-good hits from Edwin Starr, Disco Tex & His Sex-O-Lettes and Van McCoy’s ‘The Hustle’.

CD3 bursts to life with the international smash and UK #1, ‘Yes Sir, I Can Boogie’ from Baccara, before a run of huge hit covers including Belle Epoque with ‘Black Is Black’, Amii Stewart’s version of ‘Knock On Wood’, Eruption with ‘I Can’t Stand The Rain’ and Sheila & B. Devotion’s take on ‘Singin’ In The Rain’. Amanda Lear follows ahead of sci-fi inspired disco from Meco with ‘Star Wars Theme/Cantina Band’ and Dee D. Jackson’s ‘Automatic Lover’. Next up is Patrick Juvet, The Three Degrees, Patsy Gallant and The Hues Corporation’s ‘Rock The Boat’, along with #1s from UK artists Kelly Marie and Tina Charles. Legends Grace Jones, Evelyn “Champagne” King, The Isley Brothers and The O’Jays lead toward the discs’ close from The Whispers, Gladys Knight & The Pips, and Thelma Houston’s Grammy-winning ‘Don’t Leave Me This Way’.

CD4 launches with Elton John’s irresistible ‘Are You Ready For Love’, originally released in 1979 and a #1 in 2003, ahead of George McCrae’s ‘Rock Your Baby’, one of the collections’ earliest and inspirational moments. Smooth classics: Odyssey’s ‘Native New Yorker’ and Diana Ross’ ‘Love Hangover’ are followed by more dancefloor gold from Earth, Wind & Fire, The Spinners, and Tavares. Timeless tracks from Sister Sledge with ‘Lost In Music’ and Chic’s ‘Dance, Dance, Dance (Yowsah, Yowsah, Yowsah)’ come before Rose Royce, and second appearances from Sylvester, Gloria Gaynor, and Village People. LaBelle’s influential ‘Lady Marmalade’ is then joined by Loleatta Holloway, Jean Carn, Melba Moore, and Maxine Nightingale. The collection closes with Yvonne Elliman’s ‘If I Can’t Have You’, from the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack, Stephanie Mills’ ‘Never Knew Love Like This Before’ and fittingly, Donna Summer’s iconic ‘Last Dance’, ending the collection in perfect style.

An unforgettable journey through the songs that defined the dancefloor: NOW That’s What I Call An Era – Disco: 1973-1980 — the definitive celebration of disco’s golden age.
