Another Place & Time (Deluxe)

Another Place and Time is the fourteenth studio album by American singer-songwriter Donna Summer, released on March 13, 1989, by Atlantic Records and Warner Bros. Records. The album was produced by the successful British production team Stock Aitken Waterman, known for their signature 1980s synthpop sound. The collaboration between Summer and S/A/W was suggested by her husband, Bruce Sudano, after hearing a track by Rick Astley, another artist produced by the team. While initially hesitant, Summer eventually embraced their commercial approach, recording the album between September 1988 and January 1989 at PWL Studios in London. The collaboration marked a shift in Summer's career after she had explored various musical styles throughout the 1980s with Geffen Records. The album's lead single, "This Time I Know It's for Real", achieved significant success worldwide, reaching number seven on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States—where it was her last top 40 hit—and number three on the UK Singles Chart. Despite its international popularity, Geffen Records refused to release the album in the US, prompting Summer to find a new label.
