Disco Dance: The American Dance Floor

en Limba Engleză Hardback – 20 mar 2011 – vârsta până la 17 ani
This book sheds light on the fascinating untold story behind what is collectively and disputably called "disco dancing," and the incredible effect that the phenomenon had on America-in New York City and beyond.Disco is a dance and musical style that still influences these art forms today. Many think that disco "died" completely after the 1970s drew to a close, but in actuality people continued dancing in the clubs after the very word "disco" became an anathema.Disco Dance explains why disco was more than just a dance form or a fad, describing many of the clubs-in New York City especially-where the disco subculture thrived. The author examines the origins of disco music, its evolution, and how young people adapted the dance styles of the day to the disco beat, charting how this dance of celebration and rebellion during troubling times became subject to ridicule by the end of the decade.
