With her exotic, feline-like snarl deepened by whisky and Gitanes, the inimitable Amanda Lear returns to her club roots teaming up in the US with Morel’s Outsider Music for a sly, nu disco, electro-pop sizzler out June 19th. She’s letting everyone know she’s coming up again with decidedly cutting-edge remixes by Morel, Tommie Sunshine, Nightriders and Special Ops (aka Babydaddy and DJ Sammy Jo of the Scissor Sisters). After all, this Eurasian model, artist, novelist, gay icon knows a thing or two about art, pop culture, rock n roll and disco! From modeling for YSL and Ossie Clark, to being Salvador Dali’s muse, to swinging in London with boyfriends Bryan Ferry, David Bowie and Rolling Stones’ Brian Jones, it was her fetish-clad feature on Roxy Music’s seminal For You Pleasure album cover that catapulted her into the spotlight. With a little nudge from Bowie to pursue music, she became the undisputed Queen Of Disco throughout Europe, Asia and Latin America selling an astonishing 15 million albums and 25 million singles worldwide over her 35 year career. And this lady is still standing strong.

FABULOUS Amanda Lear all mixes great esp Morel, love the Nightrider disco house but would have been fun to sample one of her older hits for the bassline ala Love My Body circa 1983
