CLASSIC PODCAST: Felipe & Jim from The Village People join Rach, Jacq and Dene for a Village People Party!

ICYMI, back in May 2017 Felipe Rose (the native American since 1977) and Jim Newman (the cowboy since 2013) from the Village People joined Rach, Jacq & Dene for one of their best shows ever! YeeHAAA!

The Village People were in Australia on their 40th anniversary tour. They performed all their hits and just so you can get your cowboy boots a tappin’ we’ve left the music in this podcast for you to enjoy – plus a surprise song from one of their best friends.

There’s also over 25 minutes of fun with the guys who were in the studio for a little over an hour. Learn the story behind Felipe’s whistle, hear their views on marriage equality, some Village People history and much, much more.

Get to know the Village People

Recipients of a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame (6529 Hollywood Blvd between Liberace and Betty Grable!), the one-of-a-kind Village People is synonymous with dance music. Their impact on music has earned them the title “Kings of Disco” and they have sold more than 100 million recordings worldwide. These six talented men combine energetic choreography with outrageous fun and lots of bumping and grinding! Their music provides entertainment for all and will have you singing & dancing!

Village People starred in a semi-autographical film Can’t Stop the Music. The film co-starred Steve Guttenberg, Valerie Perrine and Bruce Jenner. It is a popular cult classic in Australia.

In 2017 the VILLAGE PEOPLE are Raymond Simpson (Cop and lead singer), Felipe Rose (Native American), Alexander Briley (GI/Military), Eric Anzalone (Biker), Bill Whitefield (Construction Worker) and Jim Newman (Cowboy).
