10 classic tracks from David Mancuso's Loft
MFSB, Manu Dibango, Loose Joints and more dance music gems
1 MFSB 'Love Is The Message'
As the story goes, The Loft started with a Valentine’s Day party in 1970 at David Mancuso’s home. In a time of civil rights movements and gay liberation, the message was Love Saves The Day and the party provided a safe space for dancers, many of whom were black and gay. MFSB’s 1973 hit was not only the right vibe musically, but thematically as well.
