Van McCoy & The Soul City Symphony - “The Hustle” (1975) - Italian Edition AVCO / Ariston Music
“The Hustle” is the most iconic album by American producer, arranger, and composer Van McCoy, released in 1975 by AVCO Records (Italian distribution by Ariston Music / Dischi Ricordi S.p.A.). The record features the worldwide hit “The Hustle”, one of the defining songs of the disco era - a track that topped international charts and became an enduring anthem of 1970s dance floors.
The album blends lush orchestral soul, funk grooves, and refined arrangements, performed by The Soul City Symphony, a group of top-tier musicians conducted by McCoy himself. Standout tracks include “Disco Baby”, “Doctor’s Orders”, “Turn This Mother Out”, and “Spanish Boogie”, all of which showcase the sophistication and vitality of classic disco at its peak.
The original cover features a vivid color photograph of a dancer in a flowing gold dress - dynamic, sensual, and perfectly aligned with the album’s spirit.
The back cover lists full track details, production credits, and arrangements by Hugo & Luigi and Van McCoy.
The record label is the distinctive orange AVCO design with white triangular logo and black text, typical of early Italian pressings.
A must-have for collectors and lovers of classic 1970s disco, representing the golden age of dance music and orchestral funk elegance.
