    Camp Disco

    Now camp is something I never gave a thought to until coming to this site many moons ago. I'm not entirely clear on it's context as it pertains to disco so I hope you guys and dolls can give me what you consider your campest disco songs.
    To my mind a song like Get Dancin' by Disco-Tex & the Sex-O-Lettes falls in that catergory due to it's humor and sexual overtones but perhaps I'm off base.

    Anything produced by Jacques Morali counts IMO. :)

    Yes, I'd agree with both examples of Jacques Morali productions & Disco Tex being camp. Camp disco tracks that I'd recommend:(note that camp doesn't mean gay - there's no Sylvester or Dan Hartman in my list - it means a bit naff but in a funny, entertaining way. )

    Camp? It's joyful Disco to me :D

    I play "Village People" from, yes, "Village People" a lot now and if that's camp, I want more of it :lol:

    Paul, why don't you do a cover version of Madleen Kane's "Forbidden Love" and put the words Salma and Hayek in it. I tried and it works amazingly well
