Giorgio Moroder

From Here to Eternity (1977)

Look at this picture.  Yes, this artifact truly exists.  Yes, you want to listen to it.  

Your own desire is reflected back at you from Giorgio's sunglasses, which he calls his "sex mirrors".

"Because I wear them when I am about to have sex," Giorgio said.  

"I never take them off."

Do you think you can dance to it?  You don't deserve to dance to it.  Mick Jagger looked up from his three-way bj long enough to see you coming down the dock and he signaled to the yacht captain to set sail before you could get there.  Giorgio laughed and threw some cocaine in the air like confetti.

Seriously, this album defines transportive.  Giorgio takes Kraftwerk and adds a spinning disco ball.  If that sounds appealing, and it should, you will enjoy this.

From Here to Eternity:

If you don't like this song, don't bother with the rest of the tracks.  If you do like this song, get this album and just put it on when you want to dance, have really ironic sex, or want to celebrate because your agent just got you a three episode recurring guest spot on Dallas.
