The Politics of Dancing on Fri 2/17/23
DJ ROO Politics of Dancing 2/17/2023
Sharing todays broadcast celebrating electronica, disco, and dance music in film. Was hard to choose my favorites and even as I was doing the show, I found myself probably needing to do a part 2.
I included a piece of the HBO documentary How Do You Mend a Broken Heart, that talks about the crossover hit that was Saturday Night Fever film and soundtrack that preceded it and becoming one of the best selling soundtracks of all time.
