"Confessions on a dance floor" is the album that brought Madonna right back to the dancefloor that she so righteously owned throughout the '80s and '90s. Revisiting many of her past works, the magnificence of this album lies in that, whilst it appears superficial, if one listens carefully, most of the tracks have something important to say, and they do this without preaching. From the opening tick-tock till the closing guitar chords, this cleverly-sequenced 12-song set is a glorious return to top form, featuring killer samples, challenging lyrics, seductive hooks, cool attitude, fine production. With no slow tracks, it really is amazing how well the record flows, balancing fabulous disco anthems ("Hung up", "Sorry"), superb electro stompers ("Future lovers"), sleek life-affirming grooves ("Jump"), and sublime chanting hymns ("Isaac"). The outstanding Confessions Tour enhanced sales for this euphoric album that crowned Madonna as the Disco Queen of the 21st century, and went on to sell 12+ million copies in total. Newly-pressed 2017 2LP edition, presents the record cut on 180 gram pink-coloured wax, and is again a limited pressing, just like that of 2005. Similarly, this new edition comes unmixed, another feature that adds to the item's appeal. The printing quality is excellent, the audio is superb, the gatefold packaging gorgeous, which altogether easily make this the best title in the 2016-2017 series of M vinyl reissues.

Disco was too good to die young
By Gabriel on May 10, 2019
Madonna has always been big in the music industry, but this was the album that really brought her back as a powerhouse artist, can you can see why, the album doesn't pretend to be deeper than it is, it's fun, danceable, but not light or simple, the productions are dark as the party nights from the 70's it tries to evoke. A classic, and enjoyable for Madonna fans and casual listeners alike.By Gabriel on May 10, 2019
