The album, produced and arranged by Boris Midney (we have his other Danny-gifted, non-stop studio concoction, The Beautiful Bend!), reached number one on the US Billboard Disco Charts and peaked at number 50 on the US Billboard 200. It features disco reimaginings of songs from the Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice musical, including a track titled “Eva’s Theme (Lady Woman)” written by Midney. Gifted by Danny and I also played both sides on my recent Spring DJ Marathon.*
