Moulin Rouge was a short-living disco project of Michael Zager. There was only one selftitled album released under this name in 1979. It was about Bee Gee's covers remade in late 70's disco style.
Disco versions of Bee Gees classics, from the OOP 1979 ABC vinyl LP "Moulin Rouge - Moulin Rouge".
Track listing
Disco versions of Bee Gees classics, from the OOP 1979 ABC vinyl LP "Moulin Rouge - Moulin Rouge".
Produced, arranged and conducted by Michael Zager of "Let's All Chant" fame, this 1979 album of Bee Gees covers include "Holiday", "Run To Me", "Lonely Days", "To Love Somebody", "My World" and "Massachusetts".
All of these songs predate the Gibb brothers' own disco phase; they are 1960s and 1970s songs from the golden age of pop.
In Zager's capable hands, they became delightful dance numbers with rousing vocals. The vocalists are Alvin Fields, Stephanie Spruill, Julia Tillman and Lorna M Dillard. My favorites are Holiday, To Love Somebody and Massachusetts. Disco music will find it most enjoyable.
