Good God, what a bunch of disco pop! And I have named Parliament's "Flash Light" as my favorite, but that distinction could go to several other cuts listed here, such as "Deacon Blues", "Hopelessly Devoted to You", "Short People", "With a Little Luck", and others...go ahead, call me on it in the comments!
Actually, most of the music I was listening to in 1978 had come out 4-5 years earlier, if I recall correctly.
