To celebrate the album’s 40th Anniversary, Donna Summer’s ‘Cats Without Claws’, has received a reawakening, with five tracks being remixed for this milestone release. Top remix names, Steve Anderson (Kylie Minogue/Britney Spears/Brothers In Rhythm/Claire Richards/Delta Goodrem/Take That/Westlife, etc), 7th Heaven (Kylie Minogue/P!nk/Little Mix/Ariana Grande/Steps/Cher/Britney Spears/Sugababes/Jason Derulo/LeAnn Rimes/Agnetha Fältskog/Katy Perry/Take That/Selena Gomez, etc), Ladies On Mars and ShyBoy (Hollywood Music In Media Award ‘Best Male Vocal’ on Hypnogaja’s version of Donna’s ‘On The Radio’), all add a special spark and contemporary gloss to half of the album.
This newly mastered vinyl 2LP set pressed on hot pink & white coloured vinyl, also contains the non-album ‘b’-side ‘Face The Music’, as well as the original ‘Eyes’ (Extended Mix), lyrics, a newly authored 6,000+ word essay by noted US writer Christian John Wikane, featuring new and his own archive interviews conducted with album producer Michael Omartian, designer Jeff Fey, video director Ian Leech, John ‘Jellybean’ Benitez, Reba Rambo and Bruce Sudano.
Both Jon and Andy are huge fans of Donna so it was a dream come true for 7th Heaven to be asked to remix ‘I’m Free’ for inclusion on this fabulous value 40th Anniversary edition. It was also great to be on the same set as our good friend, writer, producer and dance music legend, Steve Anderson. The 7th Heaven remix of ‘I’m Free’ transforms the song into a big euphoric floorfiller.
The lead single, ‘Forgive Me’ (Steve Anderson Remix) will be available to stream and download this Friday, 6th December 2024.
The release date for all album formats is Friday, 18th April 2025.
The digital pre-order will be announced shortly but meanwhile, the double CD and 2LP are available to pre-order now… https://dsummer.lnk.to/catsclaws?fbclid=IwY2xjawG9h5hleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHaJ4sbTHpLul2S1pYEoEsar6sMksP0_OSdSRostOaJlk4eL5GQ3Ffn6R-g_aem_BsE-im6RJdQD9FywzjF-VQ
