Pamela Nightingale - "A Night To Remember" (12'' Maxi) 1987 hi-nrg eurobeat disco RARE!


a mega rare track!


-
The 1987 follow up to Pamela Nightingale's wonderful 1985 club track "I'll Never Fall In Love Again" was the more laid back, european retro discoesque
"A Night To Remember".
This track reminds me of those late 70's-early 80's disco hi-nrg songs from Ian Levine/Fiachra Trench, although "A Night To Remember" was produced in 1987 by Steve O'Donnell.
It has that "70's 'Love Boat' glamourous cruise ship holiday (on the French Rivera/Mediterranean sea) sound..."
A nice track, but the sounds of 1987 were all about Stock Aitken & Waterman "Mel & Kim / Rick Astley" cutting edge dance productions, so i can only imagine that this track was mostly ignored, and until now, almost forgotten.

Non-Stop Mix by Chrissy Murderbot
 
"Most people aren't aware of this, but for a brief period in the 1980s Montreal was like the WORLD CAPITOL OF DISCO. Or one of a handful of capitols, anyway. This was right after everything disco-related in New York clubland and the US record industry had ground to a halt and become terribly unhip (the so-called "Death of Disco", to hear rock critics speak of it), but before Europe's Hi-NRG and Eurobeat scenes really took over. It was a weird transitional phase, wherein electronics gradually took over for live instruments—a crucial step on the road from disco to house.
Much like its close relative Italo-disco, a lot of the Québécois Disco stuff is still big with house DJs here in Chicago. I found out about it through bargain-bin shopping as I was growing up in Kansas City, and it's always been one of my very favorite musical styles.
And before you discophobes start yelping: Yes, it's corny. Yes, the lyrics are ridiculous. Yes, it's saccharine and blatantly commercial and synthetic and manufactured and all that junk we're taught to hate about music. But it's also amazing. It's really forward-thinking. And INSANELY catchy. Enjoy."  (Chrissy Murderbot)
