For those who weren't there, it's hard to imagine the impact of the arrival of disco. For a decade, it made New York City the center of the universe, the decadent, dazzling and glamorous palace of all the nightlife in the world. It became a whole new dancefloor culture with its own language and dress and for thousands, it was the only time they came to life.Disco created a whole new heaven of stars, and the biggest of these was GLORIA GAYNOR. Lavish, luminous, a powerhouse performer, Gloria Gaynor exploded onto the scene with the first big disco hit, "Never Can Say Good-bye". It was the title track to her 1973 album, the first album of non-stop programmed dance music and this would pretty much change the face of the record industry. Gloria would later be listed in the 1982 World Book' Encyclopedia as "Proponent of New Music". From that year up until 1981 she put out an album every year, and every one of them went top 40. In 1975, she had been crowned Queen of the Discos, in front of thousands of adoring New York City fans. In 1978 came an album called "Love Tracks" which featured Gloria's, and the era's biggest dance hit, and the keynote song of a whole culture, the inspirational "I Will Survive". This song resonated among defiant hearts around the world, selling fourteen million copies practically overnight. It turned Gloria into not only one of the biggest stars in the world - winning her the following year's Grammy Award for Best Disco Record - but an icon. The song is still today one of the most requested songs of all time as well as the number one karaoke selection. | ||||
