Following the depature of founding member Leon Sylvers III (to become the in-house producer at SOLAR Records) the Casablanca label teamed the remaining Sylvers family with uber-producer Giorgio Moroder. Having just produced a string of hits for Donna Summer and winning that year's Academy Award for best original score for "Midnight Express", Moroder was the hottest producer in the business in the summer of '79.
The result of the collaboration with the family was the aptly titled LP "Disco Fever." The first single from the album was a dance club favorite and disco radio smash. With top notch production and superb vocals from brother Edmund and sister Angie, that track is posted here as part of the Songs of Summer series. Enjoy...
