July 13th, 1974, George McCrae started a two week run at No.1 on the US singles chart with 'Rock Your Baby', his only US No.1. Regarded by some as the first Disco No.1.

I'm not sure if I'd agree, I've generally considered Hues Corporation's 'Rock The Boat' to be pretty disco. That was #1 the week before "Rock Your Baby". But you could make an argument for TSOP by MFSB, which was #1 in April of 1974. Or Perhaps even's "Love's Theme" by Love Unlimited Orchestra (Barry White) which was #1 in February 1974.
What do you think?
