What a great come-back album for Gloria Gaynor! In fact, I think this is her very best yet - despite her truly outstanding disco classics ("I Will Survive" and "Never Can Say Goodbye" of course), I always thought her Polydor albums of the 70s were too much hit-and-miss (not at all comparable to Donna Summer's albums).

And to those who claim not to like tofu - you obviously have never tried any of Bryanna's recipes! If you're new to vegan cooking, this is a great introduction on a daily use of soymilk, tofu, and textured soy protein, in everything from your breakfast… Read more
