I’m not a roller disco hater either.

I backpacked across Europe in the Fall of ‘76 and their hit song “Daddy Cool” was the soundtrack for the entire trip, played everywhere, on radio, in bars, no. 1 in dance clubs and discos. Followed links to You Tube and watched the video. So many memories it brought back.Think I’ll have to dig into the box of old stuff for the 45 record I brought back with me. Thanks…</p> Wow, a Boney M reference.

I love this. Great skate music.
