		And although Summer's voice is strong ("Hostage," which sounds like a 70s TV cop show version of "Breaking The Law"), the song material is bland and boring ("Friends").
		Even then the material's at its worst Summer's voice is engaging and likeable, but often it's so far back in the mix it's hard to hear her over all the 4/4 synthesizers.
		Summer's voice is in fine form, and she's at least trying to come up with original ideas: "Voices Cryin' Out" is an interesting experiment, with her vocals rising out of a sea of background voices.

		The ONLY reason to buy this one is if you are a new fan of Donna Summer's work...and I don't know how any fresh fans can be recruited, given the lack of new material since a Christmas album released years and years ago.
		I have NO idea why this was released, given the glut of Donna Summer greatest hits packages already on the market.
