As a companion post to the one at DGDB&D, I am presenting some old school Astros fight songs for your listening pleasure.

I collected all of these at Astros games in the 1970s and 80s, and I feel like the last two, especially, symbolize the disco era to its fullest. The quality is pretty piss poor, to which I apologize, but I hope to get my hands on a newer turntable to re-rip these in the future.

Two of these songs are by the 80s era disco icon Sue Laws. In that era of swinging and sex, I always imagined her singing the national anthem, taking part in a warm-up gang bang, singing the 7th inning stretch, and the finishing her night on a pile of naked bodies. Perhaps there was a little projection going on with that, but I’ll leave that to you Freudian people.

Enjoy!

Go Go Astros! - Mack Hayes
Vamos Vamos Astros! - Mack Hayes
Houston’s Gone Banastros - Sue Laws
World Series Disco - Sue Laws

I {heart} you all,

PS: As with the Oilers songs, I expect the Chron to steal these and take the credit for them. That’s how they roll, peeps.
