To compliment my recently completed ‘1000 BEST SONGS LIST,’ I shall over the next few weeks, publish some of the songs that failed to make the final cut.

1007-Disco Tex and the Sex-O-Lettes-Get Dancin.’
1974-Number 2 single.
Best Bit-At 1.10. D.J.Disco Tex always had his Sex-O-Lettes around him, I have been more fortunate, in that I never had that type of thing as a distraction, meaning I could fully concentrate on the music, lucky me.
Joseph Montanez Jr. was born in 1942, to a Puerto Rican family in The Bronx, New York City, from the mid 1970’s, through to the early 1980’s, he released three studio Albums as ‘Disco Tex,’ but it was back in 1966 when he first found fame, when making several appearances on ‘The Merv Griffin Show,’ endearing audiences with his outrageous personality,using the stage name of ‘Monti Rock.’His other major claim to fame was his appearance in the 1977 film ‘Saturday Night Fever,’ playing the part of the club Disc Jockey.
‘Get Dancin”was co-written by songwriting legend Bob Crewe (1930-2014,)(see also best songs 914-863-739-499-393-284-164-112 and 83,) and Kenny Nolan.In 1974, two songs they co-wrote became consecutive Billboard Number 1’s, when Frankie Valli’s ‘My Eyes Adored You,’ was replaced at the top by ‘Lady Marmalade,’ from Labelle.
‘Here comes D.J.Disco Tex, truckin’ with his Sex-O-Lettes.’
