Cruisin' (Village People album)

Cruisin is the third studio album by the American disco group Village People, released on September 25, 1978. Its title is a double entendre, referring to either simply driving around or a subtle nod to gay cruising. The album features the hits "Hot Cop" and "Y.M.C.A.", which peaked at number two on the Billboard Hot 100.

In 2003, the album was rereleased as Y.M.C.A. in continental Europe.

Critical reception

The Globe and Mail wrote that "Village People make disco music that is pretty much the standard stuff musically, but has some high-spirited vocal stylings and some hilarious tongue-in-cheek lyrics."
