This review is from: Gay Classics, Vol. 4: Outrageous { Various Artists } (Audio CD)

With producers like Bobby O, Jacques Morali and Ian Levine, and artists like Divine, Miquel Brown, and Claudja Barry, this edition of the series is pretty much a who's who of the NRG era. Most versions here are the 12" versions. Although, it is important to note that the version of Another Cha Cha here is nearly 3 minutes shorter than the original 14 minute version! The version of Jukebox by the Flirts is NOT the version I have on 12" vinyl, although they are the same exact length. I much prefer the mix I have, but it still has yet to see the light of day on CD. Also, it's such a cliche to have ANY version of Gloria Gaynor's "I will survive" (as if we all don't have that song already on dozens of other compilations), and here, it's actually a rerecording probably from the late 80s. More like a house mix. Things end with the biggest cliché of all--a cheesy cover of I Will Always Love You. Blech. Track times:
