"On December 15, 1973, the American Psychiatric Association, removed homosexuality from its official list of mental disorders. Economically, the 1973 oil crisis marks the end of the trente glorieuses." --Sholem Stein "One of the most spectacular discotheque records in recent months is a perfect example of the genre: Manu Dibango's "Soul Makossa."--"Discotheque rock '72: Paaaaarty!" (1973) by Vince Aletti |
