The
Night that Disco
Died
Welcome! to
the set of Soul Plane, one of the hottest
shows on television. The year is 1978 and the
Disco era is still in full force and effect.
|
|
|
Soul Plane is a disco dance show
that is hosted by the smooth talking "Disco" Don
Juwan. Don is not only the show's host, but is also
the producer and owner of Soul Plane Records.
Most of the recording artists from Soul Plane Records have
been featured on the show at one time or another, and
this evening will be no exception.
 |
The hottest recording
stars in the nation, PollyEsther, are currently
topping the charts and will be featured guests
during the taping of today's show. |
However, rumors abound that the two artists
that make up PollyEsther, Polly Summers and Esther
Ross, are not getting along and that Polly is seriously
considering launching a solo career.
Interestingly enough, the disc jockey
for Soul Plane, Johnny "Spin Doctor" Rivolta,
is also president of Mrs. Summer's fan club and has
reportedly encouraged Mrs. Summer to start her own
recording company.Managing a record label of her
own could prove to be particularly challenging without
the backing of Soul Plane, particularly since
her husband, "Gabby" Dean, has had serious
financial problems and is likely to be little or
no support.
"Gabby" is
also said to be an informant for the police,
which could prove to be particularly tricky if "sparks" do
begin to fly, since Soul Plane is rumored
to have been bankrolled originally by a well-known
local mobster named Grady "Sugar Daddy" Kane,
who continues to have a "vested interest" in
the operations of Soul Plane.

So there you have it, the stage is set
for change. However, not everyone is ready for change.
Just like the "disco craze" it came and
went so quickly, but what an impact it had! So here's
an
opportunity to relive that period of time we call
the Disco era.
Just remember where you were ...
THE NIGHT THAT DISCO DIED!!!!!
