music: First Ladies of Disco, “Show Some Love”

As someone who sometimes wishes he’d been the right age to enjoy the Era of Disco, this makes me very happy.

Three extraordinary women who have made their marks on the pop, R&B and disco charts have joined forces for the first time: Martha Wash, Linda Clifford, and Evelyn “Champagne” King. They come together as a powerful force known as The First Ladies of Disco…

Go on, read that again. The voices behind “It’s Raining Men,” “Runaway Love,” and “Shame” (and “Love Come Down”) in one group!!! And then listen to this:

I will admit that while I like their first single, I don’t love it, but I can’t wait to see what else they release.

I haven’t been to a concert in ages, but if they made it to DC, I’d have to get up off my old ass and go.
