Correct.

Caveat: I haven't listened to 5 yet as it's still in the post, but I've heard all the tracks.

Retro.

Disco 3 IS the best of them all.

31452.

Disco 3 should have been the blueprint for any further Disco.

4 has Hallo Spaceboy which is an all-time favourite of mine. 5 and 3 are close.

1, 3, 2, 5, 4? I've never really got the Disco 2 hate - the "remix" of Liberation is annoying but only marginally more so than a couple of the mixes on Disco 3, and Disco 2 has some great passages as well. The new tracks on Disco 3 are great though - remember the excitement on here when clips started leaking?

Hi! Disco 3 is awesome! In my humble opinion, it is even more an 'album' than Introspective. Let me explain: while Introspective has only 6 tracks and among them are some new remixes, Disco 3 has 11 tracks being 4 new songs! Discos 4 and 5 don't follow the others... The third should have been a proper album...

my order:

1 the best a classic
2 good, but divisive
3 ok
4 not so good
5 yikes

Here's the thing with all the Disco's. For me they're very situational. Disco 3 is like a full album, but Disco 2 is like a getting ready to go out album rather than one you're going to sit down and listen to (as Neil has himself described it)

Disco (1) is absolutely a listening album start to end.

4 and 5 are for me more for enjoying on a drive, acting more like a curated Playlist, than anything I'd really kick back and listen to.

Each has their place depending on the time/place.

Ramzy, I've pretty much agreed with almost everything you've said over the years, so !
