[dj phillip esparza]

expose
village people(in the 80s)
menudo
:roll:

I know some people around this place will probably kill me for saying this....but I'll have to say: Giorgio Moroder :lol:

I really never understood what all the fuzz was about with that guy. :-?

[markydefad]

"C'mon, let's do the Cocomotion" :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Cheez whiz on a stick!!!!!! :P

[Graham_Start]

Anything produced by, or involving, Joel Diamond.

[markydefad]

"Makin' It" by David Naughton is real Land O' Lakes pasteurized cheese product. :P

Also, The Sylvers seemed to specialize in dairy food. :lol:

[SandraDee]

Anything by Ottowan is best avoided. It so pisses me off when I tell people that I like disco music & they immediately start singing 'D I S C O' by ottowan :evil: - it has to be the worst disco record ever made IMO.

[Robbie]

"Hands Up" by ??? I'm guessing it's either Arpeggio or Lime.

[Graham_Start]

Another big warning sign are disco songs/albums by artists who don't normally do disco (Ethel Merman, Ferrante & Teicher, etc.).

These will send anyone with lactose intolerance running to the washroom.

I agree, In some clubs I had no choice but to play "Makin it" but usually I took my sweet time until they forked over some dough.

Expose's style fell out of favor overnight, they even caned a similar follow up LP ready for release, but they were very popular at the time, and their music packed the floors (even in California, I was there), it was also a hell of a great effort by a former local DJ (Luis Martinez), at least he didn't go around sampling other's music.

Major cheese in my book:

"The Love boat" ?
"All Night long" Lionel Ritchie
" What a fool believes" Ralph MacDonals
"Jive turkey" BeeGees
and many others...

personally when I go record shopping I always stick to the labels I know. Anything that is on a commercialized stand out in disco I refuse to buy. Like Gloria Gaynor - I will serve or Y.MC.A. :evil: However I personally like to hear everything so I pick up what I can and I make my own judgements because what some people will like, others won't.

"I Will Survive" and "YMCA" are the cheese on the trays at your local wedding reception and block party :lol: . I will also throw in Alicia Bridges' "I Love The Nightlife", but the 12" version is much better. Can't forget Sister Sledge's "He's The Greatest Dancer" and "We Are Family". At this point I should just say that any disco song that made the Top 10 is cheese.

[Graham_Start]

Boogie Oogie Oogie -- the very name smacks of aerosol fromage

I will put on my flame-retardant clothing and say that most of Madonna's 80s material is pure cheese. I still cringe when I hear "Holiday", "Material Girl", or "Lucky Star". Hear "Holiday" at a retro night a few weeks ago, and realized that I've been completely sick of the song for 20 years now.

[markydefad]

If we took a holiday, just one day out of life, it would be soooo niiiiice!!!!" :P

I LOVE this record. The extended promo was real good --sensational piano. Have you heard this version--not just the 45 version???? :o

[Graham_Start]

AAARRRRGHGH... I have been subjected to that wretched number far more times than I can imagine. A longer version than the usual club mix? Spare me from the very thought! The production is cheese. The lyrics are cheese. The melody is cheese. And that voice!! Egad, Madonna has never been known as a great singer, but she sounds like a seal with a sinus cold on this one!

All this is still not as bad as the Tommy Musto remix of "Unison" by Celine Dion; which now that I think of it, wins the award for cheesiest dance tune I have ever had to repeatedly endure. Mercifully, it doesn't get played at retro nights. (goes and knocks on wood)

[QUINNY]

Madonna - Holiday was sooooo refreshing at the time. I even liked the later version by DJ Sven & Miker G (is that right?) which camped it up somewhat, but worked really well and had a certain Nordic charm.

So far as cheese is concerned..............
put Alec R, Boris Midney and all the other Eurotrash into the grater please. I would never want to buy anything by those guys, although I do now own a few more because compilations aren't so selective.
Not forgetting the let's jump on the disco bandwagon tunes like I Love Lucy et al. You know the ones I mean. Ghastly, ghastly records!!!!!
