Throw in a smattering of post-punk and new wave gems, plus arguably the greatest end-of-night anthem of all, Wings' 'Goodnight Tonight' (the extended version of which gets brilliantly dubbed-out in the middle and is far superior to the seven-inch mix) and you have a rock-solid collection of club-ready '70s sing-alongs. The only thing is that they use the good 12" Disco Remix of Relight My Fire (6:46) from 1980 and not the great original mix with the long intro of Loleatta Holloway: Vertigo / Relight My Fire (9:44) from 1979, mixed by John Luongo.Channel U commissioned the first ' grime comedy', [5] an animated adult sitcom named The Booo Krooo.

This 4 disc set covers so many styles, from a decade that switched between rock and roll revival, reggae, teenybop, 60s nostalgia, disco and new wave, plus plenty more to boot. Electronic Disco opens Disc 2, with the superb long version of ‘Beat The Clock’ from Sparks, Cerrone’s ground-breaking ‘Supernature’ and dance-floor smash ‘From East To West’ by Voyage.

Jackson 5, Billy Ocean and The Real Thing bring the first disc to a close – but not before some stomping glam pop from Sweet, Mud, Wizzard and T.

A" by Patsy Gallant, both songs that received regular airplay on shows such as Michael Aspel's mid-morning Capital Radio show (all sing along now, "Michael Aspel makes your morning, Michael Aspel makes your day"). Disc 1 kicks off with one of the most enduring songs ever from the legendary ABBA with ‘Mamma Mia’ and continues with back-to-back No. John Paul Young's "Love Is In The Air" is a piece of late 70s pop perfection, and along with Carole Bayer Sager's "You're Moving Out Today" and the seaside postcard sauciness of "Telephone Man" by Meri Wilson, songs like this sum up part of the 1976 /1977 musical flavours offered by stations such as Radio 1 and London's Capital Radio.
