Product Description

DONNA SUMMER gained prominence during the 1970s disco era, propelled by her incessant and creative driving force behind the genre’s global popularity, rightly earning the title “Queen Of Disco” and becoming one of the most successful recording artists of the entire decade. Donna was the first Artist to have three consecutive Double-Albums reach No. 1 on the US Billboard charts and also became the first artist to achieve four No. 1 singles in a thirteen month period. Donna’s catalogue has sold more than 130 Million units worldwide and this re-issue campaign of seven of her later albums, prove that she was able to accommodate new musical and production styles as the decade progressed. Donna Summer became the first Artist signed to the new Geffen Records label in 1980 and released her first album – ‘THE WANDERER’ - for the label in the same year. The fourth album released for the label was 1987’s ‘ALL SYSTEMS GO’, which was produced by long-term Giorgio Moroder collaborator and movie soundtrack composer, Harold Faltermeyer, gave the album a slightly harder-edged, FM-radio friendly sound with a heavier R&B influence. Out of the two further tracks recorded for the album, ‘Dinner With Gershwin’, which was produced by Richard Perry and written by Brenda Russell, gave the album that desired FM-radio sound, with the single becoming a worldwide hit. Other singles include ‘Only The Fool Survives, a duet with Starship’s lead-singer Mickey Thomas and the album’s title track ‘All Systems Go’. This re-mastered re-issue, is packaged in a sumptuous case-bound book, containing the original full album credits and acknowledgements, newly authored liner notes by noted US writer Justin ‘Musicology’ Kantor, as well as the lyrics, as included in the original LP and features the original studio album with non-album ‘B’ side and extra singles mixes.
