A lot of skating rinks were playing songs from the disco era of the 70's. One I remember vividly was Celebration by Kool and the Gang, others I also remember rock like Meat Loaf's Paradise by the Dashboard Lights used to play a lot.
Good luck with your project.

Most of what what said here so far was the 80's. I agree with the last post, Saturday Night Fever, BeeGee's, Kool and the Gang, and the big one, Saturday Night by the Bay City Rollers
(s-a-t-u-r-d-a-y night) Every rink played this song.

I am not sure of the spelling but I believe it was Olivia Newton-John's Xanadu.
