Driven By The Music Vinilo y CD

Review: Released in 1989 at a point when Donna Summer's chart-topping disco days were well behind her, "Another Place & Time" is perhaps not Donna Summer's best-known or more celebrated album. It was produced by UK hit-makers Stock, Aitken & Waterman and contains their distinctive blend of polished synth-pop melodies, Italo-disco style arpeggio bass and Hi-NRG inspired grooves. Summer's vocals are superb throughout. What makes this 35th anniversary edition most interesting is it's packed with alternate versions and bonus cuts, including a string of dancefloor-focused remixes that draw greater influence from contemporaneous house music. Of these, it's Clivilles & Cole's superb NYC piano house revision of "Love's About To Change My Heart" that stands out.

Review: A number of classic albums from Donna Summer and being re-issued right now. This one was her 14th album Another Time and Place, originally released in 1989. The album was produced by Stock Aitken Waterman and includes one of Summer's biggest ever singles, 'This Time I Know It's For Real,' as well as the glorious pop nugget that is 'I Don't Wanna Get Hurt.' The album is well away from the disco styles Summer is best known for after she grew disillusioned with the genre at the end of the 70s. As such it is rooted in pop and eurodance but still has plenty of her lung-busting vocals and plenty of club-ready drums.

Review: Donna Summer will always be best known for the tune she herself likes the least. But she had plenty of killer tunes and in fact some fantastic albums during her heyday, too. Many of them are getting full reissue treatment by Driven By The Music and are well worth familiarising yourself with. Mistaken Identity is one of the best. It is couched in her famous disc sound but with pop and rock inflections, some edgy grooves like 'Body Talk,' popping and angular rhythms like 'Say A Little Prayer' and more sentimental swooners like 'Cry Of A Waking Heart.'

Review: This is a vinyl reissue of the 1989 album Another Place And Time by Donna Summer, the legendary American singer and songwriter, and co-pioneer of Hi-NRG disco (for those not in the know) with Giorgio Moroder. Coming fresh with a completely new novelty album cover, it's got just 10 tracks of pop, disco and dance, reflecting the late 80s assembly-line approach to releasing such music . Summer was extending one foot to balladry by this time, with the hit singles 'This Time I Know It's For Real' and 'I Don't Wanna Get Hurt' going for the more heartfelt power-chordism shot for by solo artists releasing music closer to the Millennium. Nonetheless, this is still quintessential Summer.

Review: Another Place, Another Time was one of the many acclaimed works by American disco queen Donna Summer. It arrived in 1989 and now gets another reissue such is its enduring popularity. It saw Donna pair with the legendary production outfit Stock Aitken Waterman and features the globally recognised and top ten single 'This Time I Know It's For Real' as well as UK Top 10 hit 'I Don't Wanna Get Hurt'. This version is a superb picture disc edition for extra collector's brownie points and a fine addition to your deck.
