The 1982 album "Gloria Gaynor" saw the disco queen transition into the dance-pop and soul sounds of the early 1980s. While not as commercially successful as her earlier work, it featured collaborations with established producers.
- The album was released on the Dance History label in August 1982. It featured a mix of original material and covers, including a rendition of the Jackson 5's "Never Can Say Goodbye." The song "I Will Survive" was NOT on this album, despite being her most famous song.
- The album was produced by Giorgio Moroder and Pete Bellotte, who had previously worked with Donna Summer. It did not chart on the Billboard 200.
- Gaynor continued to tour and record into the 21st century, but this album marked a period of shifting musical tastes away from disco. It was her first release on the independent Dance History label.
