Dance to the Beat Boeing

The Brits like to call a record like this "boogie."  It reminds me a lot of the classic We got the Funk by Positive Force.  In any case it's made in Italy disco music before the whole italo thing had taken hold.  There are a few examples of this sound from 1982, 1983 and some are great.
BOEING
I sold my import Good Vibes record copy for a pretty penny back in the day.  There's a Full Time records Italy version that was released in 2018 with an edit by a D.J. from Perugia called Moplen who has a big presence on SoundCloud.  It's a limited edition pressing with three other great Italian classics on it.

My Sweet Dream Simon Bennett

This Italo Disco obscurity from 1985 takes some inspiration from darkwave and certainly has some of that new wave kinda deadpan delivery.
Nothing special for the genre but you know how I love to share all things Italo Disco with you all.

obscure disco nugget Invisible Wind

This record is sheer magic from the first note to the last.


Even though it was released in 1981 on the tiny label TAP Records it very much has that lush orchestral quality of some of the best of the 70's disco classics.
FEEL THIS WIND
Whatever happened to Jackie Stoudemire?  Invisible Wind is a treat.  I hope some of you are getting to hear it from the first time and are as enthusiastic as I was the first time I heard it.  It's become highly collectible.
