Dancing with the Queens on Labor Day

You could place the word "Queen" in relation to the two birthdays in music happening this Labor Day weekend.

September 5, 1946, Freddie Mercury of Queen was born.





And September 6, 1947 was the day a legendary Disco Queen was born. Sylvester only lived 41 years but his music lives on. One gay drag queen that STILL rules some dance worlds today. So here are some of the best of Sylvester James (1946-1988) and his girls "Two Tons O Fun"/"The Weather Girls" Martha Wash and the late Izora Rhodes-Armstead (1942-2004)

And a side note of coincedince, both Sylvester and Izora died on December 16th. He in 1988 and she in 2004.

"You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)" (1978)


"Dance (Disco Heat)"


"Do You Wanna Funk"




"You are My Friend"


RIP Izora Rhodes-Armstead


And another birthday to be noted today is another queen of the dance floor,

CeCe Peniston, born September 6, 1969
