Gloria Gaynor

Yesterday on the XM Radio station Chrome I heard the long version of Gloria Gaynor’s disco anthem I Will Survive for the first time. It’s quite impressive. The version you’re probably used to hearing is about three minutes long. But the long version is basically her singing the whole song all over again. Toward the end the drummer starts doing some really funky improvisations, like he’s had an itch for a while and needs to scratch without missing any beats.
