The official
and original Disco Dj Hall of Fame™ was created by Marty Angelo in 2000. It was donated to
the United States Library of Congress in 2005 along with the Disco Step-by-Step®
videotape collection and website, The Hustle
Dancers Hall of Fame™ and the Disco Music Hall of Fame™.
Many more Djs should be included on this list but were not left off intentionally.
Their names simply were not submitted at the time the list was compiled back in
2000... such
as; Alan Grohkle, Ben Liebrand, Billy Swan, Ed "The Worm" Rothstein, Froggy,
Ivan "Doc" Rodriquez,
Jay Negron, Jorge Alvarado, Jussi K, Pete Denis, Paul Taylor, Raul Rodriquez, Ray Juanes,
Richie Pappanella, Rick Alonso, Vince Pellegrino and many more.
Please note that various categories
allowed for non-working djs who contributed to
the disco dj record movement in many other ways such as record producers,
promoters, distributors, etc. They all helped the Djs in one way or
another and deserve to be recognized.

Read Marty Angelo's
life-changing experiences in his book
"In spite of this most recent
success with my disco television show, my life was still full of confusion and hopelessness..."
"Oh, I seemed happy on the outside.
But deep down I was completely empty..."
" I stayed high almost the entire day, listening to the hundreds of records people
sent me..."
"I stayed out all night in bars. It wasn’t enough to close a bar at four a.m. I
found all the after-hours clubs that featured fast women, gambling, and
drugs. Most days
I walked out to my car at ten a.m. When other people were already at work for the
day, I was just going home..."
" I was on my way, for sure. But on my way to where?"
" Was I headed in the same
direction I’d traveled before? I didn’t stop to consider such questions. If I had, I might
have been prepared for the problems that were on the way..."
"But some people just can’t learn the easy way..."
