As you can see from my moniker, I'm passionate about disco, especially dancing to the music.
The ballroom dance done to it is called "the hustle". (For an example, see
Saturday Night Fever, either the original movie version
(which I love)or the show currently on Broadway! There is no shortage of music
appropriate for hustle dancing:straight-on disco music. When I was active in my
college's ballroom dance club I
always wished that they'd play more hustle.

(Note: the full version is long-about 9 minutes worth!
Cut it off after about 4 minutes, if you wish.)

(It's a slow, mellow hustle. By the way,
some of you might recognize samples of this song in Will Smith's "Miami".)
Look for it on the Dance With Me (Latin dance movie with Vanessa L. Williams) soundtrack
Look for this on his collection of greatest hits Ladies and Gentlemen:
The Best of George Michael.
This can be found on the VH1's Nonstop Dance album.
By the way, I can't leave without putting a link to my friend the
self-proclaimed
Disco King's
(aka Randy Brown)
homepage. He's originally from Prescott, AZ, population 152,066.
Here is an updated picture of me, which was taken last summer at a home Mets game at Shea Stadium. (The Mets trounced the St. Louis Cardinals that afternoon; take that, Mark McGwire!)
