Rick Summer - Born To Be Alive
Review by Faris Rusydi
Born To Be Alive, the debut album by Rick Summer, is an electrifying collection of disco-infused tracks that are sure to get listeners moving. From the opening title track, which has become a dance floor classic, to the funky grooves of "Love Is Here," the album is a non-stop party. Summer's smooth vocals and catchy lyrics are backed by a tight band that knows how to keep the beat going. The album also includes some slower, more soulful tracks such as "Let's Go To The Disco" and "Don't Stop Dancing," which showcase Summer's range as a singer. Born To Be Alive is a fun and infectious album that captures the spirit of the disco era and is still enjoyable to listen to today.

SALUDOS eres de Puebla México ?
I have this 12” but not this one, it was a test pressing.
This version peaked at a "much-too-low" #71 on the Billboard Dance/Disco Chart back in July 1979, and sadly, was Rick's only single to make the charts...Thanks so very much for uploading and sharing this "lost" dance floor classic with all of us fellow Youtubers...I thoroughly enjoyed it .and the sound quality is TOP- NOTCH too! Take Care! Ms. Elizabeth???????
doesnt beat the original
Great version...
