The only positive I can think of its potentially rising undead from the grave, bits of broken vinyl gripped between its teeth, is that if anything deserves/deserved two deaths, it's disco.

If you're goin' through hell, keep on going. Don't slow down. If you're scared don't show it. You might get out before the devil even knows you're there.

I just recently bought Skatetown U.S.A. on Blu-Ray. I've waited 40 years for this to be released on video! It finally came out last September. I loved this chaotic mess of a film when I saw it! Patrick Swayze, Scott Baio, Billy Barty, Flip Wilson, Marcia Brady, and an 18-year-old Katherine Kelly Lang from The Bold & The Beautiful, with most of the cast coked out of their mind during filming. The new digital Blu-Ray transfer blows away all the faded underground prints I've come across. I even saw a super faded 35mm print in a theater a few years ago.
I also digitally compiled the soundtrack. I had the LP when it came out long ago. It has some cool tracks on it, including Marilyn McCoo & Billy Davis Jr.'s "Perfect Dancer". I saw them perform at Knott's Berry Farm in the '70s!

Dancing was always a way to socialize and meet people. Young people today are still interested in that. It is a bit similar to disco without the heavy beat of of the Bass drums. Anyway I'm all for it as it's better than texting your date over dinner.
Who can forget Dance Fever with Denny Terrio, one of my parents favorite TV shows on Friday nights.
