Product Description
"Remarkable. . . . Carried along by prose that is as sleek and slinky as its subject."―Christine Stansell, University of Chicago
Alice Echols reveals the ways in which disco transformed popular music, propelling it into new sonic territory and influencing rap, techno, and trance. She probes the complex relationship between disco and the era's major movements: gay liberation, feminism, and African American rights.
