They say Earth, Wind, and Fire is an inspirational band, but I don't know any more inspirational band than The Village People. Victor Willis never stops trying to lift our spirits. His joy is contagious and the very purpose of music.
He kinda screwed the other 5 guys when he left and they continued without him bc he took the rights back and replaced everyone except Glenn Hughes (The Leatherman) because he had unfortunately passed away
They put on an amazing show! It is extremely hard to dance and sing at the same time, especially for this long. It takes an incredible level of training and fitness. These are real performers. Thanks so much for posting!!!
How amazing it must have been in that audience. What a repertoire of classic songs. Every one of them pulsating and great. Pity lead singer Victor left the group not too long after and many members of the group changed to others. This may have been one of the last concerts the original members of the group performed in.
I loved the Village People as a black kid growing up in Mississippi. Such fun to watch, dance and sing to there songs. Forturnate to hae experiene in real time! Thanks youtube for providing this platform for others to enjoy what they couldn't before.
OMG, it is so neat to see the Village People perform! 💜❤️💙💚🧡💛 The disco 70 s were so Wonderful! Nothing like the 70s... & The Village People! I was only 6 years old but this brings back so many happy memories! Thank you...
Great footage and setlist, "Hot Cop" and "Village People" are two of my fave VP tunes. Victor having to call for some more monitor volume multiple times, even with that problem he did a great job on the vox! VP part of the Casablanca Records "big three" with Village People, Donna Summer, and Kiss. Fun music, fun times.
if this aint the most 70's performance ever. the superimposed psych graphics package is spot on. dudes gave not a fuck in the world i mean their expressions during the zoom shots - all were speeding their damn faces off! 70's drugs were another level of party
Awww it’s so lovely to hear of other fans of Donna Summer. I’m such a fan myself. I think if you could give an award for Donna Summer fanaticism I’d probably get a knighthood. She still fascinates me. I have everything she’s opened her mouth to say and sing and I still can’t get enough of her even though she’s no longer with us. I think she is the ‘Only Voice’. Take great care and stay safe 🙏🏾❤️
@@LoganLaveryAwww it’s so heartwarming to hear about other Donna Summer fans. I really adore all her fans and anyone who likes her. I think she’s the ‘Only voice’. I’m so sorry but other vocals don’t measure up. Please stay in touch 🙏🏾❤️
Sin lugar a dudas Village People una de las mejores grupos de época disco donde bailar su música era un deleite y hasta el día de hoy en cualquier fiesta y/o evento se escucha esta maravillosa música. Gracias por compartir esta joya de video. Saludos desde la CD de México 🇲🇽
This was my favorite group as a child my mom had the live album and the ready for the 80's and i played the hell out of both albums dancing and singing along
European TV has presented so many top music groups over the years at the time of their success and even later. It is hard to find American TV that has done that.
Está era la verdadera música disco de los 70,80 y Village People lo mejor en su momento lastimosamente nunca pudo venir su alineación original a CD de México 🇲🇽 está hermosa música la podías bailar en la disco que hermoso recuerdos. Gracias por compartir este Gran Concierto de Village People. Saludos a todos los que disfrutamos está hermosa música.
For those of us that grew up in this era of music, we r so bless , pure talent these singers had, the era 60 ,70, 80, 90, was the best music ever, i would go back to this era in a flash if i could,
34:25 Look at his face. He is happy. The disco era must have been a great time. I was born in the summer of 1979 and I like this music. I don't know why, but something connects me with this time. 34:53 that grooves the most. 
Hermosos fueron una d las mejores bandas d la época disco maravilloso con una vos muy bonita d Víctor q no la pudieron remplazar ........lamentablemente en esos años atrás era un muy. criticado el homoxecsualismo y tuvieron q habrirse rápidamente pero no todos eran hubieron solo 2 del grupo los otros no incluso tenían sus parejas mujeres y fueron padres d familia con hogares normales. . . Fueron maravillosos q época tan linda Víctor con una voz bonita
Victor Willis basically holds this live show together. Poor guy has to sing live and hold the audience, while those asshats in the background mime and dance around, with all the music and backing vocals on tape! I hope Morali and Co. paid that guy at least five times as much as those gymboi cosplayers.
Thanks for stopping by! It is sad indeed, but maybe they had no other choice but to use the backing track back then. At least Victor Willis seems to be live all along though.
They were the real deal, very good live performances. There is a video of Don Kirshner's recording of their performance where the sound engineer lost one of the feeds so the music drops out and you can still hear them singing. They sounded great. David Hodo was the best dancer out of all of them
What a bizarre, electrifying, right time-right place nullifying bad ass mamajamma, bring to the people, we are the people, stand together let loose, enjoy the fing time we have, break the norm, fuk the norm, ahead of their time-yet in it, people chill and make your dreams your own, dance, dance and be accountable for your excited actions tomorrow morning, we are the different but all the same, live your life honestly, get funky and let go MFing Village Mfing People!!

Whether you're gay or strait The Village People we're the greatest disco sound.And you got to admit u got your money's worth.Great performers.
Exactly 💯 the Village People we're apart of the disco sound. You can't lie or deny it........... I 💕 loved them PERIOD.
Village People for kids too (Minions)
The best!

Such fun and positivity! We need some of this in 2022

Loved this show my favorite group from the 70's!!!
Love anything Felipe does, he's the best dancer in the group.
não tem essa de um ser melhor que o outro todos são incríveis maravilhosos eu amo todos❤️❤️
Donna Summer & Village People, the top two in disco for me….
You can say that again.
Yep, I went to see Thank God it’s Friday twice because of Donna Summer

Imposible resistirse a bailar ... ÚNICOS

Ready for the 80s is the most heartbreaking song knowing what that decade would bring.

大好きな歌なので聴けてよかったです！ありがとうございます
I am,,NOT gay. I am jucy ,Just hollidy jam., pie,,fruit. ? apple or queer berry.
Best show of Cruisin:
1. Le Palace
2. Don Kirshner’s Rock Concert
What an amazing flash back. I think I was 2 when I first saw them play live.
Motivation...where r we going?
San Fran. YMCA, LA 🌟
Listened to there 1st ep and got hooked. Im 29 and would’ve been a big fan. Minus ymca and macho lol
Love me SOME construction worker AKA as DAVID HODO..BOB IN CINCINNATI OHIO
Victor Willis always reminded me of the style of the great Levi Stubbs. Great singer.
is village people an exclusive song? I can't find it anywhere else on yt. Its honestly one of my favorites.
It's on the first album.
Seth Putnam brought me here.
Victor Willis basically holds this live show together. Poor guy has to sing live and hold the audience, while those asshats in the background mime and dance around, with all the music and backing vocals on tape! I hope Morali and Co. paid that guy at least five times as much as those gymboi cosplayers.
Sorry, but thoes guys back there were a spectacle. Without them, it wouldn't be any fun. Morali knew this.
É alto astral do início ao fim! Poucas bandas conseguem fazer isso!
34:25 I Am What I Am (Final)
Enjoyed this so much, my ears thank you...and my bang a rang bod a rod, was up and moving!
Shows lindo muito preparados👏👏👏👏💪💪💪💪
Just wonderful, loved every momment
I s this appropriate subject matter for study in a Public School Curriculum ?
Dia 1 de Outubro de 1978 fui cabo Man nesta gravação pela tv Band abertura de show Phylicia Allen esposa de Victor William.
Being a musician and former drummer for the Village People singing to the Fire Island music track and eliminating the band is sad!
Thanks for stopping by! It is sad indeed, but maybe they had no other choice but to use the backing track back then. At least Victor Willis seems to be live all along though.
You played for VILLAGE PEOPLE?! That's awesome! When and how long did you work with them? 👍
Victor days oh yeah
Does anyone remember Nash bridges? The episode where Joe plays traffic cop to this tune! Historical! Laugh every time!

David Hodo was the best dancer out of all of them
Is that video here on UA-cam?
@@Dr.ZoidbergPhD - Yes, it's on here.
@@kdphotos4691 could you paste the link. I'm not having any luck finding it 😕
They’re playing to an audience either of geriatrics or people without a pulse!
Maybe they're all just high af.😉
key west was my fav song from them
They performed Key West on The Merv Griffin Show🔥
Look nice but need more yellow extra lights or white reflector was to dark
Thee greatest disco group of all time. I was God blessed to work with the Indian Felipe Rose on one of his solo projects.

Are you still in touch with him? I met them all in about ‘94 on Queen Street, downtown Auckland and got all their autographs
