I had their 2nd, 3rd, and 4th albums, or more specifically the albums with "Macho Man", "YMCA", and "In The Navy".

As a kid, we didn't know what gay was. They were six men who dressed up like they were at work, and we were happy with that. Well, what about Felipe Rose, what job was he doing? By being the master of the foot bell, he was the only Village person that played an instrument.

Through the Village People, I also was able to learn a new word: gigolo.

What was the Jumping The Shark moment for the Village People? Steve Guttenberg rollerskating on the streets of New York City during the intro of "Can't Stop The Music", a movie which pretty much killed their careers at the beginning of the 80's.

"Great album, and so good to hear labels like yourselves releasing the music you totally believe in, respect. Love the Flevans piano roller, and John Book's party breaks." -LTJ Bukem
