Deluxe 2CD edition of Sheena's 1985 hit collaboration with super producer Nile Rodgers expanded with 21 bonus tracks (14 previously unreleased). First-ever release of the long-lost original full length versions of album tracks - including the previously unreleased uncut versions of singles 'Jimmy Mack' and 'Magic Of Love', original alternate 'Break Mix' of 'Do It For Love' and 7 min+ take on the rock-funk workout 'Don't Turn Your Back'. From the original master tapes. 24-page booklet includes rare photography and illuminating new interviews with songwriters Junior Giscombe, Adele Bertei, Charlie Midnight and more by ex-Attitude editor Adam Mattera. As part of Cherry Red's on-going reissue campaign of the star's EMI catalogue, this 2CD Deluxe Edition of 1985's dance-R&B orientated 'Do You' finds Sheena Easton hooking up with Nile Rodgers at his imperial super-producer peak - following his mega hit productions for the likes of David Bowie, Madonna and Duran Duran. Easton had already transitioned to a bonafide stateside superstar with MTV-friendly hits 'Strut' and the controversial Prince collaboration 'Sugar Walls' on her 1984 platinum- selling set 'A Private Heaven. ' For 'Do You' Easton fully embraced her new upbeat, pop- funk direction on tracks like the top 30 US dance hits 'Do It For Love' and classic Motown cover 'Jimmy Mack', as well as sensual groove ballads like 'Magic Of Love' and 'When The Lightning Strikes Again'. 14 previously unreleased tracks showcased here include the original full length version of the album - heavily edited on it's initial release - including the original alternate 'Break Mix' of 'Do It For Love' and seven min+ take on the rock-funk workout 'Don't Turn Your Back'.
