Here it is, noon on Christmas Eve, and guys are starting to think about getting their shopping done.
As we roll on into the holiday, I hope yours is safe, peaceful, and healthy, both physically and mentally. If you need to work off some calories here’s a song to boogie to.
Get Up and Boogie - Silver Convention
Disco in a nutshell.
I have to tell you, I don’t know if this is technically classified as an instrumental or not. It has fewer words than Silver Convention’s other big hit (“Fly Robin Fly”), and a lot of people called that an instrumental.
Silver Convention was a group from (West) Germany, and they had a few more hits in Europe than they did in America. As with a lot of acts in the 70s, they hit, got you dancing, then disappeared by the time the strobe light faded.
Disco in a nutshell.
Get Up and Boogie
Written by Sylvester Levay and Stephan Prager
Recorded by Silver Convention
From Get Up and Boogie, 1976
That’s right!

Everyone wanted to be Elton John, but since they couldn't be, they all dressed like him.

I'm so glad I'm not at Walmart anymore! I hated all the last minute rushing about!
Merry Christmas!

Especially the people who showed up with two carts’ worth of things on their list ten minutes before closing, right?
Merry Christmas to you and Pretty!

Of course I remember this one. Not the group, but the song.
Just gotta love those white shaggy boots they are wearing!!!

That screams "70s" almost as much as bell bottoms!

Yes, it does! I had forgotten about those fuzzy boots. I also remember in the 60's my teenage cousins saving to buy white go-go boots...and I wondered what was wrong with me that I thought they were ugly. For the record, I still think they are. But I loved most of the older hippie clothes.
