DONNA SUMMER 黑胶唱片和CD

Review: Donna Summer's I'm a Rainbow is one of the more curious albums in the disco diva's catalogue, in part because it was never officially completed in 1981 (it eventually saw the light of day in 1996) and saw her diversify and update her sound for the post-disco era. This lavish package offers a new perspective on the set, with a variety of producers offering "recovered and recoloured" interpretations. There are some fine revisions on show, many of which add a polished, 21st century nu-disco sheen to Summer's songs. Highlights include the hybrid disco/80s soul take on 'I Believe (In You)' by Figo Sound, the chiming, AM-radio friendly, Jam & Lewis style Le Flex remix of 'Sweet Emotion', and Ladies On Mars various Hi-NRG/synth-pop influenced reworks of 'Brooklyn', Highway Runner' and 'Leave Me Alone'.
