Here's a link to the Spotify playlist. Some of the edits and remixes I've used may not be widely available.
For a while I've been thinking about creating a history of disco mix, picking out some of the great tracks that symbolise the disco era. Meanwhile I recommend listening to Steve Greenberg's podcast "Speed of sound". Four of his podcast's episodes take you on a fascinating musical journey from Nazi occupied Paris to disco dominating American Top 40 radio. Definitely worth downloading.
And if you want more, subscribe to Discodave's Spotify playlist, The Disco Files 1970-78, which includes all the tracks he could find from Vince Aletti's book "The Disco Files".
