One of my favourite songs of all time. Certainly the greatest disco record of all time. RIP Jimmy.

This is sad news. The 'SAAATISFACTION' scream on the repeat of the second verse of 'Disco Inferno' gets me every time.

He also sang lead vocals on the equally excellent, bittersweet 'Hold Back The Night' and was co-lead on the cover of 'Zing! Went The Strings of My Heart.'

Disco Inferno is an amazing record.One of the best dance records ever-the version on the Night Fever soundtrack is about 10 minutes long-amazing.

What a fantastic track to be remembered by.

RIP.
