Having bought the CD on Monday it has never been away from me, it's in my car it' goes to work with me, it comes into the house with me.

Yet another record label willing to 'retire' older artists to the 'Covers' project pile. Except La Donna put her foot down.

This latest album of original co-written/produced material makes Mariah, Rhianna, Beyonce, Britney and even Whitney to some extent look like they're still at school.

It's also a reminder to us all just how versatile an artist she is and at 59 years old, proves that experience and an authentic, distinctive set of pipes wipes the floor with any of todays vapid vocal gymnasts.

It's a good, fun album with a mixture of styles. I downloaded the promos for 'I'm A Fire' and 'Stamp Your Feet' - about 12 remixes in total. Some very good. Worth checking out.

I've bought this album and am amazed how good it is!

For a 60 year old woman to be producing such upbeat dance/pop songs as "Stamp Your Feet" and "Fame The Game" is excellent.

At the moment we seem to be inundated with young performers singing bland listless songs with no oomph and here we have 60 year Donna Summer coming out with an absolutely excellent upbeat album.

The duet on the album with Ziggy Marley is brilliant and I love the electropop of "It's Only Love".
