O tym produkcie

Product Information

Mid-town Buppies, big-time mobsters, fabulous dancing queens, and unscrupulous promoters all come together in After Dark, a first-hand account of the birth and growth of the disco movement in the 1970s. Disco music has earned an unflattering reputation for being garish and flashy; however, it was the voice of a generation that spoke using the power of dance to unite people. Now, for the first time you can hear the compelling, never-been-told story of the rise of the New York disco scene. In the late 1960s, a group of college students formed a social club called "The Best of Friends" (TBOF) and learned to monetize their love of dancing and music by building a multi-million-dollar network of discotheques. Their innovative DJing techniques transported dancers into a carefree state of euphoria that paved the way for "Saturday Night Fever," Studio 54, and the nationwide explosion of disco in the late '70s. TBOF discotheques attracted everyone from CEOs to mailroom clerks, from Rick James to Elizabeth Taylor, and from big-time mobsters to FBI agents. This unprecedented collection of humanity made it impossible to know what excitement would unfold each night. What the partners in TBOF did know is that After Dark, they had to be on their toes.

Reviews
"Back in the '70s, when nightlife was supreme in the New York area, it was fashionable to go to nightclubs that made you feel good and look good at the same time. It was my privilege to count on Leviticus and its sister clubs - Lucifer's, Justine's, Orpheus, and Bogard's - to have that pleasure. It was a time in my life I will fondly remember always. Leviticus was the most popular nightclub in New York during the early to mid-70s. Back then, people loved to dance and Leviticus had the best dancers. I played there often and the crowd was fabulous." - Cuba Gooding, Sr., a frequent performer at Leviticus with The Main Ingredient "As much as I'd like to talk about it, I can't...because it will make me cry. Those days at Leviticus were...wonderful!" - Vaughn Harper, former top DJ on WBLS Radio New York "Leviticus was better known and more important to African Americans than Studio 54 was to whites." - Linda Tarrant-Reid, cultural expert and author "Put on your dancing shoes and your spiffy clothes. Pack your comb, a clean hanky, and step into Noel Hankin's time machine for a delightful journey to the world of New York City disco dancing parties. Experience first-hand the backdrop of "Fun City" vs. "Fear City" by taking this exciting, indeed exhilarating and joyful ride through the pages of "After Dark". Noel Hankin makes you an intimate part of "The Best of Friends", as they strategically move from the stresses and successes of their ground-breaking business ventures to the roar and the rhythm of the crowded dance floor. As a proud and distinguished Queens College alumnus, Noel has found his true calling as a captivating storyteller." - Jay Hershenson, VP Communications and Marketing and Senior Advisor to the President of Queens College/CUNY "Steve Rubell and Ian Schrager's glam palace of disco, Studio 54, was reportedly meant to be a white, Hollywood version of the fashionable black Manhattan disco Leviticus...." - Dr. Alice Echols, historian, author, professor of history at USC, in Hot Stuff "After Dark: Birth of the Disco Dance Party by Noel Hankin talks about a significant yet rarely discussed or even written about part of American history: The origins of the disco dance party scene and its contribution to society. What makes this piece of work even more relevant is that author Noel Hankin is a living witness in its evolution and played a major part in it. It goes back to the beginning of the seventies when a group of friends that included Hankin formed a social club called The Best of Friends (TBOF) and built a network of discotheques. Hankin traces back the struggles and triumphs of doing what they love and, with passionate recall, shares stories of the high energy generated by the business that they were not expecting would redefine a nation's dance scene culture." - Vincent Dublado for Readers' Favorite
