GLORIA GAYNOR I Will Survive (2009 Dutch exclusive 12-track CD album - if ever a song title was prophetic in terms of an artist’s career, then surely 'I Will Survive' is a prime example of a title becoming a self-fulfilling prophecy when one discusses the career of Gloria Gaynor. Whilst many artists would consider such an iconic song to be a millstone around their necks, Gloria Gaynor has never felt that way at all and in recent interviews has actually gone out of her way to dispel any such notions. However, let’s not forget that the hit which kicked it all off for Gloria and effectively started the Disco boom was her dancefloor-friendly version of the Jackson Five’s 'Never Can Say Goodbye'; both tracks are included here, alongside material originally recorded for French label Ecstacy, which signalled a change in direction with Gloria moving from the more disco-orientated material towards a more Pop and R'n'B sensibility)
