After 24 weeks of dominance the soundtrack to Saturday Night Fever, the album that was featured mainly by The Bee Gees, was finally knocked off the top spot on the Billboard album charts, by Gerry Rafferty's "City To City".

At the height of the disco craze and in 1978 Scottish singer Gerry Rafferty released his 2nd album "City To City", after having left the band Stealers Wheels and ending a long legal battle, that kept him from releasing any new music for 3 years. The album received great reviews and the single "Baker Street" pushed the album to #1 on the Billboard Charts while staying at #2 on the singles charts for 3 weeks. A feat made more impressive by being the album that finally ended the three month reign by the Bee Gees and the album that became the biggest selling album of all time.

"Baker Street" would become an iconic song of the 70's and the solo by saxophonist Raphael Ravenscroft would be one of the most recognized pieces of music in modern times. "City To City" would cement Rafferty as a solo artist and help power his career through the end of the 70's and into the 80's. July 8, 1978 is the date that rock beat disco in a war that would end with Disco fading and rock enduring into the new decade.
