Weird disco music





The 70's were a time of weird music [and bad music]. Somehow, The singer Ethel Merman, who was very popular in the 40's and 50's, decided to release a disco album. There was one little problem with this, however. Ethels voice was not the disco kind of voice, and it made for one truly unusual album. Many other artists released disco music, Including Arthur Fiedler, Leader of the Boston Pops. Arthur always tried to get wit the hip generation, and also released lp's of Pyschedelic and Beatles music, not to mention T.V. themes. Just the cover ,with him in a disco suit boogieing down, makes this one priceless. The Ethel Disc has been Re-released on cd.
