Camel - "Highways of the Sun", Rain Dances (1977)

Not that I like it, but I find the whole album quite okay (now, I've got it and couldn't sell it again Big smile), except from the disco-y artwork and even worse, the highschool-boyisch grimace on the back-cover photo - so it needed some extra cover Cool LOL .

^ Actually, I think that "One of These Days..." on Rain Dances is some disco-y too, but neverthereless, I may be becoming more fond of this album, as there's something special, interesting and definitely enjoyable about it; but "Highways of the Sun" surely still doesn't hit while I've kind of improved the back-cover artwork. Big smile

^ Not sure why Rain Dances was left off the recent Air Born box set (which I have) so didn't get the new mix treatment that Nude and the first 4 got. (I don't mind as I prefer Nude anyway)

Alphonse Mouzon - By All Means question whether this is really Disco Prog, but I like it. Smile

Magma's "Who's My Love" is another splendid example of the delightful mingling of prog and disco.

Hi, I'm new to this forum. I was exploring some topics an this one looked particularly interesting. Speaking of something ascribable to disco-prog there's a song which made me fall in love by the french duo Justice. I think it could fit the definition. Give it a chance.

Jean-Michel Jarre's hits have quite some disco feel (I see he's only "prog related" here).

Amon Düül II took on disco influences on some of their more hated albums in the later seventies and after Shocked. I find some of these quite enjoyable.
