'Boogie' is disco with the word 'boogie' in the lyrics.
Weve been here before but ive always thought BOOGIE wasnt just Disco per-se like Donna Summer Disco vs Jackson 5 Blame It On The Boogie. Boogie seems to be a subset/variant of R&B not of Disco.
S.O.L.A.R. = Boogie
Sylvester = Disco
Tomatoes/ Tomahtoes.......

These are search words that ebay sellers use to unload crappy soul records for outrageous prices to dudes, usually, in France.

Examples of boogie (which I would say has a very specific sound):
Angela Winbush & Rene I'll be good
Modern Soul is a term that is thrown around a lot and placed on a very wide array of soul music.

To me, boogie is NOT disco, although it has disco sensibilities. Boogie in my mind spans from 1976-1985 and incorporated R&B rhythm patterns and synthesizers heavily into music for dancing versus the thumping 4 on the floor kick drum typical of disco. This is my take. Saying boogie and modern soul are "crap for people overseas" is not a particularly fair assessment imo.
Sorry, I can't stop just calling all this stuff merely "stuff I used to listen to on the schoolbus as a kid".
I mean, somehow Rick James' Street Songs album doesn't seem to me like it fits the "modern soul" mold.
And that first clip that musica posted sounds a whole lot like Cameo to me, and I can't start calling Cameo "boogie".
I mean, I sorta see the distinctions being made with these terms, but eh.
