Gloria Gaynor at the Glamour! Glamour! Glamour! Party

Gloria Gaynor has repeatedly proven that she masterfully performs songs of other artists, finding new colors in them and often giving them a new life. Gloria toured, recorded new songs. In July 1997, she came to Moscow for the second time for the opening of a nightclub on Novy Arbat (she first came to Moscow in 1990 and performed at the Metelitsa club). On this visit, Gloria Gaynor recorded a brilliant duet with Larisa Dolina for the New Year's program of the ORT channel 'Old Songs About the Main - 3' - 'I Will Survive'. In 1998, a new album by Gloria Gaynor titled 'What A Life' was released in Italy. In the USA, Polydor released an anthology of Gloria Gaynor's 1970s recordings 'I Will Survive - The Anthology'. The value of this compilation lies in the fact that it presents in original form all three famous non-stop programs from the singer's first three albums and the most famous songs from Gaynor's collaboration with Polydor, while only two of Gaynor's 1970s albums, 'Love Tracks' and 'I Kinda Like Me', have been reissued on CDs to this day, and those only in Japan. That same year, the French national football team chose 'I Will Survive' as their anthem, and Gloria Gaynor became an honorary member of the team under number 24. A compilation of the singer's songs titled 'It's My Time' was released in France.
And finally, in October 2002, a new album by Gloria Gaynor titled 'I Wish You Love' was released in the USA. 'I Wish You Love', in Gloria Gaynor's words - an album about 'the greatest gift that God has given to all of humanity - love'. Well, disco, which in the late 70s seemed to be the spawn of musical hell, again reminds everyone through Gloria that it is true music for adults, fully experiencing the flowering of feelings (and sometimes their destruction) in real life. This CD is a reminder that classic disco comes only from true veterans of the genre, who know firsthand which songs were to be sung in 1978 to become a worldwide star. Here, the arrangements of the compositions, made on computers, disguise themselves under the rich orchestral-analog sound of that era, while almost half of the tracks are canonical disco hits with a rhythm of 120 bpm. Everything else is slow evening funk and beautiful pop ballads. In 2002, Gloria Gaynor also became a sensation on Broadway, participating in the production of the musical Smokey Joe's Café. At the beginning of 2003, Gaynor spent her time touring around the world, by the way, she has visited more than 80 countries during her entire singing career. At the end of March, she gave two concerts at the Moscow concert hall 'Russia'. The Moscow performances were part of a promo tour dedicated to the release of the European version of 'I Wish You Love' on April 7, 2003. Gloria Gaynor's voice does not lose its charm with the years, and she has never been self-conscious about her 'non-model' figure. Gloria still lives in her native Newark with her husband, loves to tend to her own garden, and regularly injures her fingers with a sharp knife while trying to cook food from her favorite recipes, which, as a bonus, she includes with her latest album; and most importantly, she has the Main Song that helps thousands and thousands of her listeners and fans around the world cope with difficulties - 'I Will Survive'!
