How long do you hold the losing investment from 1976?

It took decades for the industry side of Disco music to recover from Disco Demolition Night. Italo and Hi-NRG notwithstanding.

The music might have stayed four on the floor but the names and the people all changed.

Also Kylie Minogue doesn't set trends, she rides them. Most of us realized Disco was still alive 10 years ago.

Pop music, and pop culture in general, seems to operate on a cycle where fashions become vogue again 20-30 years after. Retro gets hip and nostalgia abounds.
