New Donna Summer EP, ‘Any Way At All,’ Is Out Now
The EP was released in conjunction with International Women’s Day.
A new EP from the late disco icon Donna Summer, entitled Any Way At All, is out now—just in time for International Women’s Day.
The track was originally recorded as a new-bonus track for Donna Summer’s 1994 Greatest Hits Compilation Album of the same name.
This new EP includes “Any Way At All,” a medley of “Dim All The Lights,” “Hot Stuff,” “Bad Girls,” and “Last Dance,” and a Masters at Work 86th Street Radio Edit of “I Feel Love.”
Just last month, the late legend was honored at the Special Merit Awards Ceremony celebrating the 2024 Lifetime Achievement Award, Trustees Award, Technical Grammy Award, and Best Song For Social Change Award during Grammy Week.
Summer received recognition alongside Laurie Anderson, the Clark Sisters, Gladys Knight, N.W.A, and Tammy Wynette as the 2024 Recording Academy Lifetime Achievement Award honorees.
“The Academy is honored to pay tribute to this year’s Special Merit Award recipients — a remarkable group of creators and industry professionals whose impact resonates with generations worldwide,” said Harvey Mason jr., CEO of the Recording Academy. “Their contributions to music span genres, backgrounds and crafts, reflecting the rich diversity that fuels our creative community. We look forward to honoring these music industry trailblazers next month as part of our week-long celebration leading up to Music’s Biggest Night.”
Donna Summer rocketed to international superstardom with her groundbreaking merger of R&B, soul, pop, funk, rock, disco, and avant-garde electronica, catapulting underground dance music out of the clubs of Europe and bringing it to the world. Summer holds the record with three consecutive double albums to hit No. 1 on the Billboard charts (the only solo artist to ever accomplish this), and first female artist to have four No. 1 singles in a 12-month period on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart. A five-time Grammy winner and 18-time Grammy nominee, the much-missed artist was the first artist to win the Grammy for Best Rock Vocal Performance, Female (1979, “Hot Stuff”) as well as the first-ever recipient of the new Grammy Category for Best Dance Recording (1997, “Carry On”). Summer was the first female artist to win Grammy Awards in four different genres: dance, gospel, rock, and R&B.
