guess what. i agree with both of these points. it seems to me that mirrors
is non-disco music
treated in the studio as disco music. it has that underlying sound. its not
disco. and it is among my   favorite boc albums, but for entirely different
reasons than other favorites.
but then, i really liked manfred mann's "watch" album, which is probably
their "mirrors".
