Description

RE-PRESS: CD ORIGINALLY RELEASED IN 2013 .
- Grammy Award winner and Hall of Famer, GLORIA GAYNOR was born on the 7^th of September 1949 in Newark, N.J. and sang as a young girl in her school choir, mixed chorus and then her school’s girl glee club. Whilst she knew she wanted to have a career in music one day, GLORIA GAYNOR still went to school with the aim of having something to fall back on and studied beauty and business courses.
- In 1965 GLORIA GAYNOR released her first solo single titled She’ll Be Sorry with the B-Side Let Me Go Baby on Jocida Records. However, it wasn’t until the 1970’s that Gaynor began to taste real success with the release of her first two albums, Experience and Never Can Say Goodbye (both available on BBR) and she began to stand out as a unique and recognizable force on the black music scene.
- In 1978 GLORIA GAYNOR released her 6^th studio album, “LOVE TRACKS” on Polydor Records, now fully remastered and repackaged by BBR!
- “LOVE TRACKS” features some of the best musicians of the time including Paulinho Da Costa on percussion and Wah Wah Watson on guitar while production duties were left in the capable hands of Dino Fekaris.
- “LOVE TRACKS” contains the million-unit selling chart topper, ‘I Will Survive’, originally a B-side to Gloria’s cover of ‘Substitute’. While ‘Substitute’ still obtained chart success it was ‘I Will Survive’, which quickly gained traction in the clubs, and as a result the record label deleted the 12” single and replaced the album version with the 12” version to boost album sales. Other notable tracks include the US Dance chart top 20 hit ‘Anybody Wanna Party’, which simultaneously climbed all the way to #16 on the US R&B Chart.
- BBR is so very proud to announce the release of GLORIA GAYNOR – LOVE TRACKS. Lovingly remastered, this CD comes complete with extensive liner notes including interviews and added bonus content making this BBR Remaster a must have item for all Disco, Soul, Funk and R&B fans out there!
