Rhythm of Love is the obvious strongest album I think. It took Kylie an album or two to find her groove and her voice. It's not that unusual with 80's pop singers, look at Janet Jackson's first two albums, most people don't even know them as Control (album #3) was the stronger album.
I would have thought that DISCO was the perfect foil to come back in but was not to be, Too much was my favourite off Aphrodite.
Wasn't Disco also produced very cheaply? I don't think a Calvin track would come cheap, even if he's past his peak.
She recorded her own vocals because of Covid and London lockdown. Then she recorded the 3 new songs for the Disco re-issue in her Melbourne home studio. She was photographed outside a recording studio in Melbourne last year too. That was probably for the Lady Gaga cover? Calvin - I am not here for this. Go spend a month in Stockholm Kylie and work with some cool Swedish writers and producers.
I don't know what she has planned for the upcoming year be it an eventual tour or another album, but it's absolutely time to strike on a vinyl re-issue if it's possible considering the turnaround time (so really this is something that should've been in the works a while back). The fact that her biggest albums are generally extremely difficult to find or totally unavailable on vinyl especially given the performance of the Disco era on vinyl is frustrating to say the least.
I don’t think there will ever be a time where her past albums are always and widely available on vinyl. The economics for continual production are not there. They seem to do well with limited production runs on reissues like with Fever last year. So I’m sure that will be the model for any reissues. Also, if you really want them the vinyls are not difficult to find. They're expensive though.
2023 - all I want is a new album! And a tour. And I had a dream that Nicole Kidman produces another TV series in Australia, and she casts Toni Collette and Kylie in it.
It’s fine, I don’t mind it at all but expected something a little bit more impactful. Feels a bit empty-sounding?
