Donna Summer's "On The Radio GH vol 1 & 2' Expanded

[Ali Gator]

It's been announced Donna Summer's "Greatest Hits - On The Radio - Vols 1 & 2' has been redone into an 'expanded' edition and will be released in mid-November. 

However, it seems the only thing similar to the 1979 release is the title and the artwork. The tracks are all the 7" radio edits, and they will not segue into each other like the original so artistically did. The second LP will include most of  her radio singles AFTER she left Casablanca at the end of 1979. 

There will be different releases on both vinyl and CD. For example, there will be your choice of color vinyl in Europe, or the traditional black vinyl (the colored vinyl is purple / pink limited edition and at a hefty price). In the US, there is talk about the double CDs being available in black and gold as a limited edition - as well as the traditional double CD. This is all subject to change. 

Overall, fans are not happy with this release - no one wants another 'hits' compilation. There's plenty of music 'vaulted' still, and a release of that will be a welcome change.

I guess even when she's dead she works hard for the money.

The late 70s. Great memories. I might buy it 😄
