On the other side of this topic, Night Ranger's Jeff Watson did an AMAZING & PHENOMENAL Hard Rock version of Play That Funky Music White Boy on a VA cd called "Guitar's Practicing Musicians". We used to cop that arrangement in several of my old Top 40 bands.

Good choice !

It was a much better live song....where it lost its disco tendencies.

Though it was a pop sell out, I love that song. Play it loud.

I like the song fine, but Mike Oldfield's 1979 single "Guilty" sounds like a straight cop of Donna Summer's "I Feel Love."
