Welcome back again to the
Bluffers Guide. When it comes to disco music, I could talk about how brilliant Studio 54 was supposed to be, but New York had so many incredible DJs and promoters who were mavericks.
You may not have heard of Nicky Siano s Gallery - he could be considered the first superstar DJ of them all - or David Mancuso s Loft - they say he set up the first Disco Valentine s Day in 1970. Then there s Larry Levan at Paradise Garage, he really moved the art form of DJ-ing into production. Please get Tim Lawrence s book
Love Saves The Day. A great document about these early times, He never mentions Abba once.
