Скачать или смотреть Midnight Roller – Claudette Jones | Classic 1979 Disco

Step back into the vibrant disco era with Midnight Roller by Claudette Jones, an electrifying track rediscovered and restored by Arcane Records, a proud subsidiary of Musical Records specializing in uncovering lost gems. Originally recorded in early 1979 at the height of disco’s glory, Midnight Roller captures the nostalgic and sultry essence of roller disco culture with its funky basslines, shimmering synths, and Claudette’s smooth, sultry vocals.

Midnight Roller is a playful yet evocative homage to the roller disco scene, with a hint of inuendo that she's singing about a romantic roll in the sheets. Blending upbeat rhythms with seductive undertones, the song invites listeners to lose themselves in the groove and slide through the night. The lyric video is paired with a rare looped clip of Claudette Jones performing live on television, further immersing viewers in the authentic 1979 disco vibe.

This release marks the first saved track from Claudette Jones' one and only recorded LP album, uncovered decades later by Arcane Records. The album was originally released on July 12, 1979 — the very day of the infamous "Disco Demolition Night" at Chicago’s Comiskey Park, a chaotic event where disco records were destroyed in a riot that symbolized the rapid decline of disco’s popularity. Due to the timing of this event, Claudette’s album suffered commercially, performing poorly despite the label’s hopes and the quality of the music. Midnight Roller now stands as a radiant time capsule of disco’s golden era, capturing the joyous spirit and cultural significance of a music style that was suddenly declared “over.”

The song itself conjures images of glimmering disco balls, mirrored roller rinks, and the electric thrill of dancing through the night. Claudette’s vocal delivery is smooth and sultry, perfectly matching the nostalgic yet energetic mood of the music. The arrangement features classic disco elements such as funky basslines, and lively percussion that keep the groove irresistibly moving.

Arcane Records and Musical Records are proud to bring this rare piece of disco history back to life, celebrating both the music and the story behind its release. Whether you’re a longtime disco fan or new to the genre, Midnight Roller invites you to roll back in time and experience a night on the disco floor like no other.
