Eddie Spaghetti (Supersuckers, solo)

SPB: In one of your columns you wrote for us, you talked of being a disco DJ at house parties. What’s the best disco song out there?

Spaghetti: Hmm. Tough question for sure. So many good ones. But if pressed to pick the ONE, genre defining moment of Disco, I'm gonna have to go with “Disco Inferno” by The Trammps. It's close though, with KC & The Sunshine Band's Get Down Tonight giving it a run for its money. But I think the fact that Disco is mentioned in the title and the requisite pumping bass line of “Disco Inferno” edge it out by a hair. I remember putting this song on and the dance floor would instantly fill up. The lyrics are pretty great too - "Burn baby burn..." the place is on fire and they just don't care! So there you have it. The greatest Disco song of all time.

The Value of Nothing
Bloodshot (2013)

For Eddie Spaghetti’s third solo LP, he’s taken a moment to quiet it down and get introspective while seeking answers to life’s big questions: meaty topics such as “If Anyone’s Got the Balls” and just who is “Fuckin’ with My Head.” Or, in other words, his solo work may be a separate project from Supersuckers, but the content doesn’t stray … Read more
