Lately I've been trying to get out of this melancholy mood I've
been in and one of my favorite ways to lift my spirits
is to put on some great upbeat music and DANCE!

Please suggest some good music to boogie to (trance, dance pop, disco, funk...)
I'm going to a used music store this weekend and I'd like to pick
up a couple new cds

What do you guys recommend? It doesn't matter if it's new or old


Right now I'm playing Karen Young's Hot Shot

Well, if you wanna dance, you sure as hell better not throw on anything new.

Throw on some Invisible Man's Band "All Night Thing" and dance your ass off.
