Cher is a woman who requires no introduction. For 60 years, the DIVA has been a multi-talented singer, actress, and businesswoman that has accumulated an accolade of awards from Grammy’s, Oscars, Emmy, and Golden Globes and was recently honored by the Kennedy Center. Her contribution to pop culture cannot be understated.

Recently, she gave a sit-down interview to the Washington Post that is worth the read.

The woman is an active Twitter user with her own unique style of tweeting her political points of view and disgust with the current administration.

For us gay men, we love her precisely because of who she is and what she represents. Cher is the epitome of a true DIVA and is the gift that keeps on giving.

With her recent turn in the movie musical “Mama Mia! Here We Go Again,” she honored us with her rendition of the classic ABBA tunes “Fernando” and “Super Trouper.” Inspired to cover more classic ABBA tracks, she went on to release a full album of classics by the Swedish pop group adored by many (including this writer) from around the world. The album was critically acclaimed with its debut landing at #3 on the Billboard Top 200 as well as #1 in Top Album Sales Chart (a best for her lengthy career).

Enter Barry Harris and his devotion to the queen. He has magically re-imagined many of these tracks from her new release “Dancing Queen” and Party Favorz has mixed them in with some of Cher’s most iconic songs during her decades of music recording, culminating into one giant Cher wet dream for the true believers.

It is with great honor and respect that Party Favorz once again inducts the fabulous Cher into the Diva Hall of Fame. ENJOY!

Steep yourself into the golden era of music with the ‘Ultimate Collection of Trash Disco Volume 7′, a sweeping anthology of timeless classic disco grooves. Unveiling an extensive list of 222 hits, this ultimate collection covers 20 hours+ of both chart-topping Disco favorites and hidden gems. This anthology encompasses the broad spectrum of classic disco grooves, although, regrettably, the iconic track “Macho Man” by the Village People there was no worthy edit at the time of this release.

Navigating through a labyrinth of high BPM counts and percussive-heavy anthems, the mixing of the final set presented a unique challenge. Nevertheless, it showcases fan-favorite classic disco grooves like “(You Make Me Feel) Mighty Real” by Sylvester and France Joli’s soulful “Come To Me.” Despite their challenging nature, these songs synergize perfectly within the grandiose collection.

Highlights include Amii Stewart’s invigorating remake of the Eddie Floyd classic “Knock On Wood” and the contagious rhythms of “Lovin’ Is Really My Game” by Brainstorm. Experience the weather forecast like never before with The Weather Girls’ jubilant “It’s Raining Men” and find joy in the uplifting “H.A.P.P.Y. Radio” by Edwin Starr. Other masterpieces like Arpeggio’s “Love And Desire” and Musique’s NSFW “In The Bush” (which got me in hot water with Sister Phyllis when I passed a note to a girl with the lyrics that I didn’t understand in 6th grade) pay tribute to the extraordinary depth and diversity of classic disco grooves.

From the vibrant beats of Patrick Hernandez’s “Born To Be Alive” to the infectious energy of “Boogie Woogie Dancin’ Shoes” by Claudja Barry, every track serves as a testament to disco’s indelible impact on the landscape of music history.

Get ready to embark on a nostalgic journey filled with the best classic disco grooves, where each beat, rhythm, and melody conjures up the magic of a bygone era.

If you enjoyed this series, consider checking out the Thank God It’s Disco collection for reworks and modern-day versions of many of these songs.

Until the next time…ENJOY!
