Also fyi the *quintessential* Levan album is Gwen Guthrie's "Padlock" which is a remix album he did. It's probably the best disco album of all time, really.

Also, once you start digging deeper there's a fantastic series of compilations called Disco Discharge; they're all 2xCD and there's maybe like 20 all together? They all have themes, too (Disco Ladies, Euro Disco, Gay Disco, Disco Exotica, etc.)

I've gotten some good stuff from this one
Dubby Disco RFI
also I am assuming you already have the two big LL comps (Journey into Paradise and also Classic West End Remixes Made Famous At etc etc) but this is another fun thing if you want something for a party or housework or whatever:

Between both of those two Levan comps AND the two 2xCD Mancuso Loft comps AND the 2xCD Moulton comp you will prob have a fair amount of overlap but it will also be pretty comprehensive. The Moulton stuff has a different vibe than the Levan stuff (Moulton strikes me as maybe more lush and less funky/dubby)
― siouxsan sarandon (Stevie D(eux)), Saturday, 11 May 2013 22:43 (eleven years ago) link
have been listening to Moulton all day - lush definitely seems like a good word for him!

it's all still finding its feet atm but i do love that everyone has grown-up conversations, and that real character moments aren't sacrificed for grand gags
