According to interviews,[citation needed] the album was released to showcase music the duo deemed non-radio friendly. With the exception of `Suburbia`, all the mixes on Disco were either rare import remixes or previously unreleased.

In The Night - possibly[citation needed] originally intended for the B-side of the original 12` 1985 release of `Opportunities (Let`s Make Lots of Money)` (the sleeve of which lists `In The Night (Extended)` but in fact played the 7` version); previously unreleased

Suburbia - a.k.a. The Full Horror (standard 12` version)

Opportunities - a.k.a. `Version Latina` from the remix 12` of the original 1985 release of `Opportunities`, which at the time of the release of Disco was changing hands for up to £100

Paninaro - a.k.a. The Italian Remix a.k.a. The Pet Shop Boys Mix, previously available only on a very limited edition 12` in Italy

Love Comes Quickly - a.k.a. the Shep Pettibone Mastermix, previously available only on 12` in the USA, an edit of which also appeared on the 7` double-pack of `Suburbia`

West End Girls - different from the version released on the remix 12`; previously unreleased

In addition, Pet Shop Boys would later release the remix albums Disco 2, Disco 3 and Disco 4, although the concepts of these compilations differ greatly from the original Disco album: Disco 2 is a continuous mega-mix of dance remixes, Disco 3 is a mixture of remixes and new songs and Disco 4 consists exclusively of tracks remixed by the Pet Shop Boys, mainly by other artists.

The sleeve cover is a still of Chris Lowe from the promo video of `Paninaro`, which was directed by Pet Shop Boys themselves.

The Disco mix of `Suburbia` can also be found on the `Suburbia` 12` and the 2001 two-disc re-release of Please.

The original version of `In the Night` was the B-side to the original release of `Opportunities (Let`s Make Lots of Money)`. Arthur Baker`s Extended Mix of `In the Night` was used as the theme for the BBC`s The Clothes Show.

Stuart Price, producer of the Pet Shop Boys albums Electric and Super, cites Disco as a major influence on his musical taste as a teenager.[citation needed]
