Various Artists : Mainstream Disco Funk – The Finest Funky Sound of Mainstream Records 1974-76

Rare disco brakes from Bob Shad’s Mainstream Records in New York, released between 1974 and 1976. Primarily known for jazz, Mainstream Records turned the early 1970s into a burgeoning underground Disco scene and released a handful of great singles produced by the likes of Tommy Stewart, Jimmy Roach or Bert DeCoteaux. Featuring artists from the early Disco hotbed including South Side Coalition, Chocolate Syrup and Three Ounces of Love, these singles, proving Shad’s great flair, accompanied the rise of the New York club and block party culture that was going to revolutionise the musical landscape a few years later.
