This is a great collection of very hard to find classics. It brought back some "disco dancefloor" moments from the past. Especially noteworthy are "Victim" by Candi Staton, "The Night The Lights Went Out" by Trammps, and "Harmony" by Suzi Lane. Most of these songs are extended mixes and very hard to find, especially on CD. So where is Volume 2? A suggestion for the next volume is the full album mix of "That's Where The Happy People Go" by Trammps. If anyone knows where I can find that on CD, please let me know.

While the selections are timeless classics, be warned. 3 of 4 songs I ordered it for, "Love Has Come Around", "Harmony" and "Fantasy", are single edits. At least the Trammps cut is the long version.

What a great album. I bought this for the Womack cut (the best song on the album) but soon got into its other songs: the song about the NY blackout in the 70s, "The Night the Lights Went Out," the tropical-sounding "The Real Thing" and the superb "Love Has Come Around." If you love 70s dance hits and are looking for obscure but good stuff you can't go wrong here. Many of these songs are very hard-to-find otherwise.

THE TRAMMPS actually have several Best Of collections, as well as the "original" albums with many of the original hits available on CDs around the music market. LOVE EPIDEMIC extended mix on original cover CD.
