Macho Man is the second extended play by Village People, released on February 27, 1978. The album gained success due to its hit singles, "Macho Man" (US Billboard pop chart #25) and "Key West." Rolling Stone said of the album, "It seems certain to become the first out-and-out disco album without John Travolta on it's cover ever to be certified platinum". [2]

This album was reissued to CD in 1999.
